Attendance is one of the main reasons I want Salford to go. Hate the ground as well. Boring, Ikea-style which is miles away from anywhere. No atmosphere, awful to watch on tv.
Leigh's ground isn't exactly the most imaginative but at least they are getting more people in which lifts the atmosphere of any place.
I always think about NRL players that come play over here. Playing in front of 40,000 in Brisbane or Sydney and then finding themselves in Salford on a rainy Friday night, playing in an empty flat pack stadium. Not a good image for super league.

I went to a few NRL games a few years back and the attendances were all around the 10,000 mark inc the Roosters, Cronulla, West Tigers

So after Huddersfield beat Leeds today (had a feeling they'd beat them) it goes down to the final round game between Rovers & Huddersfield for safety or MPG. I still think Huddersfield will beat rovers.
Very real danger of our neighbours going down.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Isn't that the 3rd time hudds have beaten leeds this year and they've still been absolute rubbish. Add in only 1 away win all season against SL opposition and I can't really see them troubling rovers. You also now have to factor in they have campese back and that his injury is the only reason rovers never won the CC and aren't challenging for the LLS and GF plus peacock will be bringing out the zimmer frame one last tim on saturday. As much as I'd like to see them in the £1m game it won't happen

I understand your thought process but if Hudds maintain their form into next week, I can see Dobbins struggling. They've had a lot of points put past them, including Fev yesterday. On paper Hudds are easily the better side, neither will want the MPG but do think Huddswill shade it. Doesn't really matter though because there's no credible oppositon in the final play off, Salford or London????

Salford wont post a threat as it seemed most of the squad was more bothers about drinking.Did anyone else see squad members behind the coaching team drinking....what a professional set up.
