there was a series of focus groups at the end of last year when this kind of thing was discussed. where and when to hold the Magic Weekend was one of the discussion areas, I dont remember anyone suggesting having it in February though, although most people agreed that a "big bang" was the best way to start the season.
Look out for the Grand Final moving to the Emirates Stadium soon too  |

This thread leads to believe that pensioners are fearful of the effects that a weekend in Cardiff in winter will have on their rheumatism .

Ooooooohhh.
Hit where it hurts. 
I honestly don't think it's a good idea.
I've been to all four and really enjoyed the weekend. What I suspect will happen is that the majority will do day trips and only watch their own teams.
I'm now starting to look for flights to Tenerife and watch the games in my mates bar over there. |

I like the idea on the premise that if we have to have something (the RFL seem dead set on fixture 27) then the opening of the season is the best time to have it - to launch the event rather than a mid season league game, but that takes promoting to a level unseen from the RFL.
The problem with February is that its pretty shiizer on the weather front everywhere in the UK, at least with Cardiff the roof closes and the game conditions will be better than all the games would have been (unless its dry and bright which means the event would have no weather worries to start with) and if cold and damp, the weather is going to force those that do travel inside which pubs and bars are not going to mind one bit.
The half term holiday being later is bound to hit some attendences as a lot of schools don't finish on the 11th this time round, meaning kids are in school 8am Monday 14th & parents won't want to take a days holiday a week before half term.
An earlier start/finish on Sunday may make it a bit more attractive to weekend trips say 12, 2 & 4 on Sunday so latest finish is 6pm - allowing a relatively "early" return to the M62

I'm glad it's moved back to Cardiff, but the weather is a massive concern obviously. I'll probably go next year though.

I'll probably have a week of extra pre season training and put the wedge away for some mid season warm weather training in Perpignan and maybe Barcelona.

I've just got back from the Wigan U20's game v Huddersfield.
Three friends (who have been to all four previous Magic Weekends) won't be going.

Correct, derby games may get this event to become a "something" instead of a "nothing" it could well be if they stuck on saints v salford, or leeds v crusaders or such like.... derby time and they stand a chance of gettign 50k over the 2 days !
Everyone can buy a ticket as a Christmas present, lets get thousands of saints fans down there and huddle together to keep warm and sing like the valley men. |

Well, since the roof will be shut, we'll be ok. We'll be able to see.
I'm fancying going myself although God knows what the RFL was thinking about, organising the weekend to clash with the Six Nations. They need their corporate head reading. |
