I know with Saints or Leeds reaching the final, they will take a lot of fans. But with a team that is based in Southern France reaching the final, this isn't good news for OUR game.
They brought less than a thousand fans to their last challenge cup final in 2018. I imagine 'Bachelors Mushy Peas' & 'Betfred' will be giving shed loads of tickets away for this game.
As Metallica once sang "Sad But True".

I've had free tickets to 2 grand finals, sponsors always get free tickets, its not because Catalans got there

It’s a new GF contestant, of course it’s good news for the game.

Go steady here, how many fans did Salford take to the Grand Final?

When Sheffield won the RL challenge cup the crowd was 18.000 down on the previous year.

The good news is that, with Catalan reaching the CC final quite recently, the sports administrators have had plenty of time to work out a contingency plan should they make it to another major final, I wonder what they came up with ?

Catalan sold out their stadium for a semi final.

How many English clubs would do the same?

The sport should be able to sell out a grand final regardless who the two teams are as its supposed to be the most important game of the competition.

There should be enough hard core/casual fans who want to attend such a spectacle without relying on a side based in South of France to fill thousands of seats with fans.
