| Anybody missing it? I'm not, especially not at that venue. I can understand the attraction of a big show-piece event, but for me that should be the Challenge Cup at Wembley...not the bore-fest of a Hull v London or Huddersfield v Cas dead rubber of a game. I won't even be watching it on TV, it would be a waste of the nice weather on Saturday and there's a much more meaningful game at Belle Vue on Sunday.
Whatever the answer is to Rugby Leagues struggles, and watching Joe Batchelor somehow keep cool during that cringeworthy TalkSport interview there is definitely a problem, I don't think Magic Weekend is the answer.

| I enjoy Magic Weekend when it goes to venues such as Newcastle or Cardiff, however the likes of Elland Road and Anfield does not suit it one bit.

| We'll probably watch most of the games either live or afterwards but so long as Cas and the Whino's both lose then I'm not too fussed for it

| We are away on holiday so miss it, we would only have gone for the Warrington game, for obvious reasons, but glad not to go to the dump of Bellend road,

| I thought the concept of the Magic weekend was to open up rugby to different areas of the UK, not preaching to the converted.

| Nobody quite knows why we have Magic, other than as a money spinner for the sport.
Tbf, in previous years, before we were relegated, I always enjoyed it.
Been a few times but, usually, watch in the local.
As an event, it's good but, Leeds is a long way from being Magical
Surely, this should be used to try and grow interest in the game, which seemed to be how it was when the event was down in Cardiff or at Murrayfield, even Newcastle but, it's lost it's way and changing the name to WKND is just a little bit sad.
Maybe the youngsters like it but, ....
It will be much better next season, when Trinity are playing !

| TBH, I don't think I'd have gone even if we were in SL this season....
It needs to be taken to new places - I've always thought that Bramall Lane would be a good venue - close to the city Centre with the pubs/bars/restaurants and good travel links.
It would also look "fuller" with its smaller capacity.
BTW, I do hate the dee-dars that play their alleged football there!
