Apologies if this is somewhere else but I now understand why our game is struggling.

ENGLAND v AUSTRALIA 26th October 2012

To be played in the good old English city of CARDIFF !!!!!

Whats wrong with that?

2012

2012

thought it was 2013?

Whoops

2013 !!

Tuggles - The RFL struggle to fill an English stadium for internationals at the best of times. This fixture should have been played in the heartlands of RL in ENGLAND to stand any chance. Im no marketing expert but this is just absolutely ridiculous.

I bet that the stadium is very nearly empty.

It's a double header with the Wales game though so if they market it well enough in and around Cardiff then there's chances of a decent-ish gate.

Nobody will bother watching Wales RL, they are crap.

Gary High is right. It will be a half empty stadium.

If they played it at Wigan, Hudds it would have sold out. We would have got beat and been complaining about McNamara, various players etc, but we would have at least had a full stadium.

Sadly at the moment that's a win

Taking Englands biggest game to Wales is a stupid idea and then to take them semis to Wembley is anotver stroke of genius and believe it or not these aren't the ideas of the RFL. Apparently there are 2 organiststions stupid enough to put cames in stadiums they will never sell over 40k in and that if they're lucky. RLWC2013 will be tbe latest embarassment for RL in this country but luckily nobody outside the RL community seems to know about it so that should stop of the embarassment

Worst idea ever. They would be better off playing it at somewere like Warrington, at least it would be full.

Anyway, im going to edge my bets and go for an Australia v New Zealand final, crazy I know................
