| Quote littlerich="littlerich"We smashed the Taffs today. What a performance!! Wow!! Massive domination by England. This proves beyond belief that the franchise system is working and that MacNamara is probably the best International coach in the game.
Bring on the Aussies and the World Cup. We are goddamn ready!!
Engeeeeerlaaaaand!!!!'"
Scratch what I said this is the right opinion.
We beat, what, fifth in the world today? Imagine what we'll do to the aussies. Even if we only get half the points we'll still embarrass 'em. Engurlaaaaaand!

| The crowd was an embarrasment on bbc1. Looked a joke for international game. Not been really pushed though by the RFL. Could have held at a venue and promoted the game to get at least 10k there.
The backs looked good. The team seemed to go ok but it's hard to judge really against the opposition

| Hardly a surprise that there are mentions of a low attendance . I wasn't even aware that England were playing today , or I would have been there . I got home from work , turned on the telly and was surprised to see the end of the commentary on an England RL match ..
If people such as myself are not aware that there is a game on what hope is there of drawing in new fans/spectators/supporters to our game ?

| Quote Beverley red="Beverley red"Great the Welsh players gave what they had & people moan, Can't you support young lads representing their country. You can only play what is in front of you, yes it would have been better to play Australia or NZ but they can't be bothered. The only thing this has proved to me is that since we got rid of GB it has made the Welsh, Scots & Irish weaker, as people with conections to them like Carvell now opt for England. Except for world cup we should be GB when we play the Aussies & Kiwi's & all players should have play these games before they are eligable for GB.'"
NZ asked england to tour and the RFL refused!
England should have went to NZ instead of this joke tournament.

| It's certainly another RFL success story! Just not Been publicised at all. The fact sky are not showing it as well meant a lot less advertising of the tourniment at the end of season.

I didn't realise that. A massive mistake if true IMO.
A tour to NZ would have been far more benificial to the team than what we have

There were probably several thousands ways of finding out there was a game today, no exaggeration. I've been inundated with emails from the RFL, I read about RL in the press, I read the forums on here. It is all over the RLWC website, the RFL website, the Super League website, the Welsh RL website and the England RL website.
Short of Sam Tomkins coming around to your house and driving you to Wrexham, not sure what you were after.

Yes it's on RL websites, hardly great advertising attracting new people to the games. Media advertising has been poor. Then there is the product on offer. When money is tight it's hard to sell a series which isn't competitive at all

| Wales would have benefitted so much more playing against Scotland and/or Ireland. England, if they had to play anyone, would have got a better game against the Knights.
IMO Wales, Scotland and Ireland should have played for the 'Celtic Cup'. The Knights should be playing a two game series (home and away) against France. And personally I think an extra few weeks rest for our top players would have been far more beneficial to them, their clubs and the England side ahead of the 2013 season and the world cup that follows it than any number of cricket scores against whipping boys.

I was under the impression that NRL players had agreed that they would only play one international this off season? What would we have been touring?

| ..that there is not much point in having Welsh RL.....England, hardly 'world beaters', but still scored 80 points.
The Welsh are best at 'kicking & clapping'.
