Predictions.......


For both days I say 65,000



Any1 know how ticket sales are going?

If that is per day then unless they give away tickets no way never.

25000 if we're lucky each day

65,000 total that's what I meant.

I suspect it will be Wigan and St Helens fans carrying most of the crowd on the first day.

I think Salford and Quins will take about 500-1000 each, Wakefield 2500-3000, Bradford 3000-4000, Saints 4000, Wigan 5000.

Add in a few neutrals and I reckon first day attendance will probably get around 22,000-25,000.

As for the second day:

Catalans 50
Hull - 5000
Hull KR 250,000 (just kidding - more like 5,000 like Hull)
Castleford 2500-3000
Leeds 7500
Warrington - 5500
Huddersfield - 1000
Celtics - 50

Second day around 30-35000

Even then, that's being overly optimistic I think.

First day- 18-22k

second day- 25-28k

complete guess but i don't get a good feeling about the crowds.

I would love to know where you are getting these figures from

huddersfield have sold a touch over 1000 as far as i know. that is approximately 15% of their average attendance this season.

Using that as a template why would Warrington take over 50% of their current attendance to an away game , HKR about 55% or cas about 38% just rough calculations

Special event, and a lot of people save up for this. I did say they were 'over optimistic'.

Your calculations are not figuring in any people going for the whole weekend.

Apart from the KR one, who have been grossly underestimated - 16000000 at least I would expect...
