I have to agree. One of the things I've always found on this forum is that there seems to be a glass half empty attitude amongst many rugby league fans. Don't get me wrong, I don't like blind loyalty or arrogance, but I like to see people being positive and getting behind the things they believe in. After all, how can you expect to enthuse other people if you're not showing any enthuisasm yourself?
It annoys the hell out of me that the Australians have the origin series but we have nothing. And yet whenever someone suggests a Yorkshire v Lancashire equivalent, there is always the same old voices hammering the idea down. Do you ever hear people from Oxford or Cambridge University slating The Boat Race? No. They get behind the event and help make it the spectacle it is - apparently 5 million UK tv viewers tune in to watch it so they must be doing something right.

[iLeague on the Shaky Isles is booming on the back of their 2008 World Cup triumph and last Saturday's double-header at the rugby union citadel of Auckland's Eden Park attracted a crowd of 44,432, while 20,668 fans turned up for the match against England in Wellington and 7,500 crammed into Rotorua International Stadium for the game against Papua New Guinea.
The attendance total of 72,600 for the three matches in New Zealand was greater than that for the three games in Australia. The 36,299 crowd at Suncorp Stadium last night took the total to 66,501.[/i

That is a most unkind thing to call folk who've gone to the trouble of trying to estimate attendances... |
