That applies to most RL fans about most matches though, see international attendances etc.

The same reason that you shouldn't have worn that shirt with those jeans, or done that pose or had them highlights.

They just don't work.

Problem wasn't with the fans it was with the players dropping out "injured" left, right and centre.

To me it could work but it would have to be done cast iron 100% that selection for the England team for the end of season Four (Tri) Nations tournament would be 90% based upon performances in the "War of the Roses" games.

Also make players withdraw from the weekend before set of fixtures if selected and play the game on a Wednesday.

If fans thought/knew they were to see a full-blooded contest there would be no problem pulling a crowd. I went a couple when they re-ignited it not long back but soon gave up on it in the face of player apathy.

I don't think the 90% thing would work, fella.

I remember the last game that was played at Origin level, I'm sure the Sky team said something about there being only one extra place available for the GB train on squad so there were about 10-15 guys all vying for a single place.

better idea


Get the 2 best coaches


Coach 1 picks any full back he wants
coach 2 then picks another full back

Coach 2 then picks a winger
coach 1 then follows

so on and so on.


The picks would be like picking a team at school in a P.E. lesson
it could be shown live at sky in a really cool program


No idea how you'd work out allegiances
don't care either because it's just as pointless as Lancs v Yorks
Would be a good game but pointless

maybe the next two candidates for the England job. Winner gets the job.
