Attendance for GB game

[stevocod]

Well same as Faa'fili wouldn't have played for NZ, but i still would rather anyone other than Gardner there.

i think the reason it was played at saints was so that it would look like a good crowd on tv instead of a small crowd making a big stadium look empty

Well I went and took the drum. Wore the wigan colours proud all night.

I understand your sentiments here but Saints/Wigan? Are you being serious? There was one player from Wigan (who was on the bench!) unless you count Fielden who was a Bradford player at the time the squad was picked! Leeds had 4 and your own team (y'know the one you are claiming hadn't any representation!) had one plus your brand new, high profile signing for next year.

PNB it's ill informed and Wire biased posts like this that are the reason you aren't taken seriously on this board. Take off your Primrose and Blue tinted glasses!

Fair cop and well spotted flash...what I should have said was squad and not xvii.
I hold my hands up. :redf:
...although I don't except the bias jibe....I would have sooner seen Litler than Gleeson in the GB+I team and others like Cooke and Briers.

Should have played it at the Halliwell Jones, it's a medium sized stadium that looks far better on TV than the shed over in chav central.

All the Warrington fans I spoke to over the test said they wouldn't go to the game because it was so selected in favour of the Saints.
It would have only been half-full if played at the HJ.

Pathetic.

Poor attendance or not? It was still two thousand more than the table toppers managed last weekend!
