It's not the death of the game that worries me, but the lack of any actual plan to grow it. If this 888 is not about growth...it's about getting more cash from existing fans.

I have been in the RL family ever since I was born lol however, unlike some people I aren't predicting the death of a sport when 86 less people on average turn out for the regular season, like changing man here is having anxiety attacks over. 86 people? 1% down on last year, its 1%, who cares really?!
You know at KC last game of season they did a memorial to all the fans who had died that year, only ones that family members had submitted to appear mind you, and there was like 20 people on that, suddenly we are reducing that 86, may those great fans rest in peace.
While we are on hull I wanna point out that the hull derby this year was the highest attended in 6 years I think. There has never been a sold out derby with the highest attended being 23,000. I would also guess that given stadium sizes, that wigan-saints attendance could be the highest in the super league era. Why don't people pick out the bits of positivity every so often, or at least give them a little mention, buck up peoples spirits and all that, I'm punching the air as I say this haha 
You know, I met a guy a few months back who runs a bookshop in Colwyn Bay (or rhos on sea I forget exactly where I was seen as they are attached) who was a Widnes fan and you know what? He was into being positive about the sport as well. Now I know he comes on here so shout out to the north wales Widnes fan! I'm getting through those books I bought off you, stay positive my man!!

Stop it, we don't do positivity around here.

I thought the 888 was about changing the way the season ends, not about bringing new fans to watch games or fleecing the existing as season tickets included the 888. Like someone says when you take the amount of people who have died and those that have moved away form there region and stopped going to matched, I bet that is more than 84 so that must mean we have recruited new fans.
There's a Positive !!!!!!!!
Watch and enjoy the best game in the world instead of analyzing its negativity. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Given the average age of a UK rugby league fan and your apathy towards replacing fans who pass away, we've still got 30 odd years left...  |

What has the NRL got against suburban grounds? They seem intent on clubs playing in massive stadiums that have a capacity 5 times bigger than attendances.
Suburban grounds seem fit for purpose for all clubs (except Brisbane who have the suncorp) and create a better atmosphere and sense of occasion. |

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

Here's a clue re suburban grounds.
1. Look at the attendance table
2. Consider the 5 lowest drawing Sydney teams
3. Consider what sort of grounds these teams play in
Bingo!

Allianz Stadium at 45000 is over double the size Souths or the Roosters need, but that's not too bad. ANZ at over 80000 is ridiculous. Stadiums that are less than half full, or even less than a quarter full suck the atmosphere out, they don't add to the match day experience for fans and come across as non events on TV.
