We had one of our top flight clubs in administration this winter, they barely survived. Wakey look like they could implode at any moment. Harlequins are just barely treading water. Our international game is still a joke. Yet your gloating over the financial losses of a much wealthier sport?

Thats one of the barmiest things I've read on here in ages. You compare some of the higher supported clubs in superleague with some lower ones ones in Union. Whats the point in that? Its rather like a Leicester RU fan proudly listing their average gate and comparing them with Salford to prove League is on its .

Quote Leicester, Northampton and Quins crowds and then see. Carnegie are Quins RL, Newcastle are Salford and Wasps are Hull KR.

RL used to get attendances of 40-50k+ for games against the Aussies in the late 80s and early 90s. There's no chance of that now. Does that mean our game is dying? Er no.

So why apply the same thinking to union?

Eng v NZ - played in a stadium that holds 82000. Total then (using your figures) 79000
Ire v SA - played in a stadium that holds 50000. Total - 35000
Wales vs Australia - played in a stadium that holds 74500. Total - 53500

For friendly matches as has been stated. Incidentally, none of these were anywhere near half-filled stadiums.

Just stop making yourself look bitter and foolish.

Really? More barmy than the fella on the VT who really, really believes that the RFL wants weak clubs in the Championships 9.833984375:5
