There was hardly an Aussie accent to be heard - a few Kiwis presumably to watch the Kiwi singer. Sydney doesn't like Melbourne, Melbourne dosn't like RL therefore we were well down, well down on the convict front.'"
You find it funny to poke fun at someone that can't afford to travel to games anymore? I thought more of you tbh.

| 5 Aussies, 3 locals who ended up spending our money in China town today because we couldnt get seats to a game that had under 4k on the gate.
And you can seriously tell me this club is going places?

| Quote daftdad="daftdad"Quins couldn't organise a pzzz up in a brewary with regard tickets. Paid on the gate and the person in front of me was complaining about being sold two tickets for 1 adult and 1 child on different rows! When he complained and asked for them to be changed so that they could sit together was told sorry that is how the tickets have been allocated and cannot be changed. Needless to say his experience was poor and he probably won't want to come back for future games. QRL misssed a trick and should have issued unallocated seats for all but the centre seats.'"
another non return...

| Quote Prince of Denmark="Prince of Denmark"
On the subject of our predominantly English squad and growing number of local lads, I was amazed looking through the Melbourne pen-pictures in the programme to see there isn't a single local man in their squad - they're all from NSW, Queensland or NZ (plus one from West Yorkshire!) - not a single Victorian.

Thats right, Rugby league is more foreign to melbourne that it is in london.
However, you will see things changing on this front with the development of their junior programmes and NYC team containing locals.

| Is the purpose of this game to try and attract London's Aussie ex-pats? If so, that's just totally bizarre considering this has already been tried in the London Broncos days and failed, and presumably the Aussies already know about the club and aren't interested in watching weekly. Even if they were attracted and came regularly, it wouldn't really gain anything for your club, it would just be an artificial inflation of support for a brief period. I still don't understand why this game is played and allowed to interrupt the Super League season, or why you want to play it. To be honest, it just turns your club into a bit of a joke.

I suspect it was to do with the two paras before
[iHarlequins coach Brian McDermott was satisfied with the way his younger players stepped into the void.
“Without getting too excited I thought they were pretty good,” McDermott said. [/i
“We've got some structures and systems in place as well as we look for what the individual can do and I think that lot kept the integrity about what we did today.”
Maybe he was referring to the systems and structures at the club which are nurturing and developing players to play first grade. SO they can assess individuals in a major game scenario. And "that lot" were perhaps the youngsters he was referring to.
That's how I read it all on first glance.

| Didn't enjoy the game. The conditions didn't help. And the fact the Jumbox pie stall was closed was a disgrace.

| I sometimes wonder if this is a haunt of depressives anonymus!
How odd for our kids to play St Mary's one week and the Storm the next? Keep the faith. It is going to be an odd season so prepare for another roller-coaster ride ups and downs ( a lot on here will prefer the downs).
