Why so cheap? People will have been starved of rugby, eager to see their 2017 team and a first opportunity to see Toronto, who everyone is excited about. I'll be pleasantly surprised if I only have to pay a tenner but would still consider £15-£18 to be reasonable.

Don't they play the women's tournaments there? What's the walk-up price for their games? Give or take a fiver at most & that's probably about what it'll cost.

we have 4 other friendles/warm up matches scheduled, granted not all will be first team players and not all at home, also they are still a championship 1 club even if they are a team everybody is excited about


charge £15-£18 get 4-5000, charge £10 probably get nearly double!

I think you are overestimating the difference the price makes to attendance. I reckon most people don't even know the price until they get there, then they pay it regardless. The only difference is whether or not they tut on their way in.

really? do you go to buy a tv without checking prices first?

I'm afraid he's right mate. Look at the Huddersfield season ticket prices recently. A few years back they were offering tickets at £50. There was no higher take up than usual.

People decide first whether they want to go. Then they see if the price is prohibitive. So whilst high prices put people off, lower prices don't actually entice any more to come. You could even let people in for free as they have tried at Salford and you don't get any more through the gate.

No, because a tv would be a relatively large proportion of my income, and I know I can get more or less the same thing for massively varying prices depending on the spec and where I buy it. Conversely, a standard rugby ticket is a small proportion of my income, I know roughly how much it will be (£10-£25 for a friendly for arguments sake), and there's no benefit to shopping around because I'm not flexible on what team I watch and I can't buy a ticket anywhere else for cheaper. Irrelevant point really.

its a friendly match, not a whole season! most people they will be aiming this game at is fans who have already purchased season tickets, those same fans that dont turn up at cup/play off games because ticket prices are too high and dont want to pay it!

for 1 game the price is not going to hurt our club!

Kick off time for this one? Need to to a bit of early planning for that day.

More the reason to travel in numbers this Sunday to the LSV and support on of your loyal players and get a fix of RL in 2017!!

Doubt it.

Your best available 17 will start the game on Sunday, fringe will come on later depending how the game is going, that's my interpretation of what Wane has said today

Seems that way.

Wigan didn't have the Toronto game down as a first team friendly on the website anyway so I doubt that game will change the first teams plans much.
