Very much so.
Teams in the south are well supported ala Wasps and Quins.

I have heard rumour that they play a bit of rugby union in the Twickenham area.

as to be expected - the Aussies are whinging about something & anything.
Get over yourselves chumps, we are hosting it and playing it by our rules this time.
Blaming the English for this when an Australian is in charge of the RLIF.
They also seem to be confused about who is in charge, the RFL or the made up RLF, or the RLIF. Richard Lewis is apparantly the executive chairman of an organisation that doesnt exist.

| I would have though the Leigh Sports Village would have been a better option for England v France. It seems quite Yorkshire biased.

I think that Donny is an All Seater may have been influential in the decision.

The South isn't just London.
Apart from Quins which other pro Union team play in London nowadays?

No pro Union teams play in London. Quins is middlesex, wasps is wycombe, sarries is watford, London Irish is reading.
I think the point of having the game at the stoop is that it will sell out and raise the profile of the sport in the capital.

They've always managed decent crowds at Loftus Road I think, Might as well play it at a SL Venue rather than a Football Ground if they think the demand is still there.

| They possibly didn't consider Wembley because of Sky's insistance on evening kick-offs, which would make it awkward for Northern fans to get to the game.

The game will sell out. 12,750 capacity including boxes....
Australians/New Zealanders who KNOW they will be here in October will buy now and 1 page ad in TNT in September will see the rest go.
