Thar she blows :_<>

This just in

Australia v England in a derps misses game attracted a crowd of

14



They
Didnt pay to get in... &
8 of them stumbled in by mistake

:_<>

20,585 oh dear davey....oh dear

let's break this down

-tickets went on sale july 9th 2014(nearly 5 months ago)
-tickets are dirt cheap
-no other teamsport in melbourne on the same day
-an international against australia's 'biggest rivals"
-2k of the 20k tickets sold were to english fans....5 months...18k RL fans in a city of 4.5m.....
-beautiful sunday arvo

and to top it off, the victory play in melbourne tomorrow(a monday!) and are expecting 24k against a new zealand club side

rugby league is dead in melbourne....R.I.P.

samoa vs nz rated like 115k on FTA, on saturday? perth nj rated 85k on fox....where was the smashing davey boyo...

115k for an international on FTA....that's like....barely 1/5th world cup games on SBS were getting that didn't even have australia playing FFS

look at this beauty from LU

It's a bit sad really,
England Australia, our greatest rivalry, we cant even sell out a 30 thousand stadium.

Says alot about the international game.
Neutral refs, ? no wonder all our players are headed to union.
They had 60 thousand in New York, a sold out Twickerman for a Barbarians game.

Australia and the exclusive state game has harmed this code, and it shows.
Now we are looking to rob Samoa of their players.
You wonder why people laugh, and union is killing it world-wide.
England cant even beat a bunch of kids.

international RL, a sad, sad joke :D
