Definitely good to see such a well known figure at the game, can only help with publicity. Also, Wrote on his twitter 'well...Wigan Warriors just dismantled Leeds Rhinos! Went into the changing room after, what an atmosphere! I should have filmed it! Inspired'

Remember after the Grand Final? There were several United players with the Wigan team after the match. Scholes, Keane, Giggs and Butt were at the DW watching us a few years back too weren't they?

Kudos on Twitter from Sir Ian Botham, Lee Westwood and Bradley Wiggins. Time that the RFL used these big big names to publicise us a bit.

Walked past him before the game and it's great to see him striking up a bond with a player like Sam Tomkins. Sam is a genius and should be rubbing shoulders with these people.
Kris Rads was taking care of him.

Wish someone would make a behind the scenes film of this season like the Lions down under dvd. Would be amazing to watch the pre and post match Shaun Wane speeches |

the sad thing about this is that Rio will earn more than a whole rugby team in about 6 months, but thats the way it is in this country
for me RL is the best sport in the world but we'll never get the recognition or the players the money they deserve

And I'm glad, money would ruin this sport like it's ruined football. |

That's an interesting point !
Legends like Alex Murphy argue that Rugby players are well paid (well the one's at the top are) but the amounts doled out to footie players is obscene. Mind you, they charge £70 to watch a match at some footie games. You can't take families to the footie (even if I wanted).
That's way out of the pockets of most ordinary people. |
