Perhaps to pique the Yorkshire fans' interest we could have a parade of attractive cousins at half time?

In answer to the origonal question i got to say it was a sucess.

I went and had a gr8 time. Really enjoyed the festival feel of the place. Has some gr8 chats with people i wouldn't otherwise have chatted to and got to se some games i would normally never have been able to se.

It's true that it didn't seem to expand the game much but all the scotts i chatted to (only 3 i admit) seemed to prefer league that union (inside and outside the ground) but didn't come because they were watching football!
According the the anouncement there were over 6000 locals there. I would guess that about half of those were new to the game.

I will def be there next year (if it's at murryfield again).

Glad I went, many fans turn up for 'their' game & bugger are the inherent problem with this event, vast majority of fans are only interested in ' their game ' so as spectacle on telly it looks a failure. Also because the points count the playing style was on the whole defensive, not ' exhibition or attacking and didn't showcase the best attacking qualities of the game.

The City as a venue to visit is great, the weather was superb, and most people who went probably have good memories of the vist but the Rugby was forgettable.

Agreed, for me it wasn't about the rugby, that was just a bonus and a reason to visit such a beautiful city. I went for 5 days and got back last night. I may never go to Edinburgh ever again as I prefer to travel to somewhere further afield but if anyone ever asks me whats Edinburgh like at least I can give a very informative and favourable view of it.

When I go to Perpignan, again it's not really for the rugby, its an excuse to get away from home for a few days but I'd swap it for Edinburgh any day of the week.

Success or not I don't care but I'd certainly rather spend the night in Edinburgh after a game than Castleford, Wakefield, Hull or just about anywhere else on the RL map!

Finally, I too only went in to watch Salford as there were far too many other things to do in Edinburgh than sit in a soulless stadium for another 4 hours then do more of the same the next day. I enjoy watching other teams play on Sky on a Friday and Saturday evening but that's about enough for me, why I would want to watch another team play live (free or not) isn't for me and I didn't even take another game in fully on sky the whole weekend, saw the second half of Saints versus Wigan and that was it.

Those who just went for the game on the day and came straight back home and those who didn't go haven't missed what they never had but believe you me, a weekend in Edinburgh is worth it, with or without RL.

Count me in P.R, i will have a bit of that

See. There you go. I'm not allowed to have an opinion. Despite the fact I'm also basing it on my outing to Cardiff. Still, we have to be positive about everything in Rugby League, don't we?

Coming soon - Moscow Magic to get more people out there interested in their RL sides.

Good point.
It would help if people watched some of the other games apart from their own instead of drinking outside the stands. I went out during a game for something to eat and there were more people outside than in.

The reason is people like you not supporting it. The RU supporters are following their sport, it is your type that is making it abysmal.

How many do you want, I saw enough.

Not a true RL fan then.
