Saints nearly sold out £24-29 tickets x capacity, thewlis said we,d lose money...

Re: wcc rabbitohs v saints : Sat Jan 17, 2015 6:30 pm  

Yes it would have been an opportunity that may never come our way again! Another decision by Thewlis that must never be Questioned.

Saints are easier to market than us !

Saints won the Grand Final. They're playing in the proper World Club Challenge game not some glorified friendly.

Oh, and in case you've forgotten, they have larger support than us with average crowds of about 4k or 5k more than us.

would have been a perfect way to try and increase our crowds and bring in new fans.. but we can just stick to the old tried and tested that we have been doing... we know that works we get a chance and earned the right but didnt want it

Earned the right to play a team from the NRL that hasnt qualified for the play offs for 3 years and finished 11th of 16 last year and 14th the year before that? Got to agree with the club on this one.

dont think many will be will wondering where they finished last season, i for one didnt know where they finished. its the name and comp and the attention it will get that we will miss out on, chance to attract new fans and put our club forward as one of the big boys in RL instead of letting the wigans and wires all the time, also we struggle to win big games... this would be classed as one and more experience when it comes to this is vital, but we can wait till the play offs again and fail i suppose.
