46,238 will be the official attendance

Listen to experience in future, 60k......wow your "pal" looked foolish back then, even worse now you thicko

i would guess there was about 35k in the stadium, lots of empty seats. Like i first pointed out, dont get carried away with all this shizzle the RFL give you!

Great success today, well attended, great atmosphere and a fantastic spectacle to promote our sport.

Exactly, the RFL did a great job. An amazing game and RL the top news item on BBC news. A wonderful day for the game (if not for the officials).

Agreed.

Just a shame about the ref for the second game.

I really enjoyed today (except for the result!). I hope this wasn't a one off and we see more games played at Wembley. Maybe one next year to keep the momentum ahead of the WC.

Give it a rest.

Great day today. Excellent crowd, excellent atmosphere, shame about the result that's all.

Well said. Yesterday was really something for the RFL to build on going towards the World Cup. Yesterday had it all, bar a better crowd which will hopefully come in future. The game and atmosphere were both great and even as it was I think the crowd was respectable and didnt look too bad on TV. A good, competitive performance from England was key going forward and we got that too. I am sure that everyone that went would want to go again after that and I am sure there was a good few at home who wished they had gone when watching it on the TV.

There has to be an international at Wembley now in every 4 Nations/tour that is staged here, like there was in the 90s. Even if we can get 50,000 at the next one then it will be good progress. It is also good to see that so many 'Southerners' went to the game. It spreads the gospel as well as the costs of attending internationals as it gives the old flatcappers one less international up North to complain about not attending. With one England match at Wembley, one in say Wigan, one in Hull and say a final in Leeds that is a good geographic spread and even if just fans from around those areas attended their local matches then all the venues should sell out...

It really isn't about the empty seats, it's about how many filled them. Would we have got the same crowd up here? No, history has shown grounds not sold out in the 'heartlands' for Eng vs. Aus encounters.

Agreed. What a day. Not enjoyed an RL event as a day out like that for a long time.

Was a great day and I said to my bro that there would still be moaners. Even at half time one guy from up north was moaning it was only half full. I explained that if we got 40,000 in then that is still a good crowd. reminded him that at Wigan two years ago we couldnt sell out vs australia.

I think the national media and london media never helped at all which is a real shame. The london press should have had a big preview of the event one day last week but their hatred for Rugby League stopped them supporting the 4 nations.
