after yesterdays games at wembley do you think it should be at wembley more often?

after going yesterday with only 43k on i still think it was a great atmosphere and hope theres more there. only downside yesterday was the childishness of kids who cant leave the club banter at home. number of times i herd likes of leeds fans slagging sam tomkins of even tho he had a good game. no point in it at all as end of day players in a england shirt should be respected no matter what club they play for.

Wembley is after all the "national" stadium, so we should have a presence there. It was interesting that there were so many of the crowd who were not "traditional" RL fans. I was behind the posts among a ladies RU team (southern), Kiwis, Aussies and American teenage girls (!). The only RL type fans near were half a dozen Wakey fans who bemused the people round me with their constant shouts of "Gerrumonside" and crude references to the referee's sexual preferences. In the current economic situation, lots of people might not fancy a trip to London to watch a game, but I think the RFL did a pretty good job in attracting a fair sized crowd.

this has to be a regular occasion now, the international game has been slowly improving for a while now and we need to make sure we carry that on but keep putting more emphasis on improving the international game and calendar and the england team.

I hope so yes. I'd definitely have a World Cup games there; either a double header to start the competition or the final and 3 v 4th game.

It's the national stadium so hopefully we'll be able to make ourselves known down there

I really hope it's a regular feature from now on. I really enjoyed it.

I'd rather you left the dig at the 'likes of Leeds fans' out though. The Leeds fans all around me all had him down as their MOTM and even broke into a chant of "There's only 1 Sam Tomkins" at one point!

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg



Certainly the positives outweigh the negatives

It would be great to use Wembley everytime the 4N are in the UK

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Got to agree that it was a fantastic event. Loved it. Great atmosphere and the whole event was done very well. Sincerely hope a Wembley match features in the world cup (just not the final, as it could end up being empty!).
