| Just wondering what people think about the ticket prices for this series?
The cheapest adult ticket for all three England games is £20.
Now I know that at some grounds £20 is a normal rate (despite dire facilities) but I'm frankly staggered to see that my regular Wigan season ticket seat (which costs me about £14 per game) is selling for £40 for the Australia match!!!! It's a damn good seat on the back row and in the middle under the scoreboard but I think you'd have to be a mentalist to pay that much!
Personally I'm not wasting my money anyway, this country is going backwards, and fast, internationally and I refuse to pay that much to go but I wondered if these kind of prices are off putting or do you see them as reasonable? Especially the France game! £50 for that?

Was gonna go to all 4, but am only going to the Wigan game (and maybe the final if we get there)

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

| Only going to two games. France v Aus in Paris and hopefully the final
£40 for the East Stand at Wigan is absolutely disgusting. Low prices and large crowds, not large prices and low crowds!!

| I'd have thought if they'd have wanted more people going to these games to support the boys they'd have lowered the prices.
I'm not fussed because I'll sit anyway at the end of the day and as a student I only pay £10. But £25 to sit in a different stand is a joke. Do they not know of the recession?

| People simply won't bother to go, if they want to get people into the games they need to keep the prices low. If it were £10 for adults £5 for concessions people would be a lot more likely to go to more of the games.

exactly.. just look at the finals games for proof of people not going to games , people go during the season as they have season tickets, when they have to pay per game things change

| The reason they charge so much is because they know that there are plenty of suckers out there willing to pay top whack to watch the game at the highest level.
If all proper League fans were to boycott one of the games like most England soccer fans did with yesterday's game maybe Red Hall will take notice.
Surely after the National League Finals last week (where 11400 turned up) they should realise that sensible pricing will attract large crowds.

No but I can stay at home and watch England get beat for less!

Nearly all the ones I know including many that follow them home and away refused to pay to watch it. And that included watching it on dodgy satellite in pubs.
They understood that should this be viewed in large numbers it would happen again.
In fact many watched Leeds/Saints instead so perhaps football's loss is Rugby League's gain.

Wow. So the England football 'fans' you know, their idea of people boycotting a game is not "we won't go to the match" but "we won't watch something on telly that isn't on telly"? That's dedication.

| I can live with paying £20 to watch Australia vs NZ in a couple of weeks. I wouldn't entertain the idea to watch England get beat.
The Final offer is a great one though, £10 off for each group game attended.

No, you're not, I think it's an absolute bargain. And with 10,000 or so available at that price, it's hardly a case of trying to scrimp as much money as possible out of people.
