I enjoyed the masterclass in 'how to surrender a certain win' by the bulls

I enjoyed it , stopped in Bristol in a guest house just outside city centre and was excellent value for the money.
had some good banter with other fans with no hint of trouble in the ground or outside.

people who knock this event should actually come and try it one year cos its a great event and i hope it carries on for many years to come !!

It's not all about the attendance on the day. It's about media interest. Getting people talking about rugby league. Many fans dress the event as a success depending on how many fans are in the stadium. Surely it's about how many where in the stadium but also how many people watched the games around the country.

Loved it. As a London fan, 30,000 is a lot of people, not a few, and it was great to be enjoying games in such a friendly atmosphere. OK, some of the play wasn't great and I was lucky to enjoy the Quins game as a partisan rather than a neutral, but me and Master Sheen had a wondeful time. Roll on next year, and we'll bring some with us.

Those that say it's rubbish need to think about the 60,000 fans that have been and enjoyed themselves as well as those that have enjoyed watching the event on telly.

It needs a few tweaks but overall it's a great weekend.

We stayed in Swansea again where the nightlife is first class. Cardiff is much better than Edinburg as a venue.

Only criticism was having the Hull derby as the last game given the distance we have to travel. Some fans won't be getting home until about 1am.

It was decent, Stewards at the Stadium were bang on! Can't fault them. Enjoyed the banter with opposing fans outside the city arms on Saturday. Apart from some Welsh Rugby Union fan sat behind me moaning about virtually everything, talking over loudly so we could hear. What a Tos*er!

Another way to possibly increase the attendance is to make sure Championship, Amateur and Junior teams aren't playing on the same weekend.

CORRECT!

This is what i was saying last week but only Starbug was listening!

Its great its just a shame that people turn up for there own game and then go home or to the bars in town.

I had a cracking weekend. An hour away from Cardiff we got a call from the hotel saying they had overbooked & we'd been transfered to the 4 star Vale Resort with full use of all of the facilities, inlcluding gym, pool & sauna. Warrington, Leeds & Crusaders were all staying there, which made it even better.


Had a great night out in Cardiff & spoke to some great people.
Would like it to be a bit closer next time, maybe Manchester?

Despite suffering from a massive cold I had a great weekend.

Stayed in the Park Inn hotel which was only 10 mins in the taxi or bus so easily accessible. Hotel was spot on and the breakfast was superb.
In cardiff itself I thought the atmosphere was great. The stadium is a much better in both location and standard than up in scotland. Apart from handbags by some saints and wire supporters during the saints game there wasn't any trouble. I had plenty of good natured banter and chats with rival supporters.

Downsides for me were missing the wire v hudds game as it clashed with the derby and some of the lack of away support from the "bigger" teams.

As it was I got to watch 3 games of rugby on Sat followed by the first 2 on the sunday for free as the ticket price was included with our season ticket. Even if it hadn't we'd have still gone for the full weekend at was is a bargain price for an event of it's nature.

It's just a shame that the RL community can't embrace it that little bit more. If they did it would be a truely awesome event
