Exactly. Its too much of a burden now the novelty has worn off.

Thats good and well if the magic weekend is your priority but for most they fork out for Catalans away initially and then maybe Harlequins away before even thinking about Murrayfield. You can't lay all your cash out at once and by the time you begin to think about Murrayfield (and in truth I've not begun thinking about it yet) the costs have spiralled.
Although I think Wigan v Huddersfield will be a cracking game, it isn't a derby in any sense and we play them just two weeks later anyway. I'll be making a day trip of it, but it'll be more of a chore this year than a pleasure.
