I think we'd be delighted to see any of those Wembley attendances at an international now. I'm with Karl, absolutely terrible choice of venues for this series. Opening match at Wembley would have been a great start to the tournament, instead same old Wigan and Hudds. Is 25,000 against Australia all our international game can hope for?
