I have no doubt they will. Russel Crowe was a big driving force behind expanding it.

I'd imagine with the investment from the clubs involved that all three NRL clubs will be sending there best players over

None will want to be the side that loses over here with the new format

We will find that out after the game.

If they lose, of course they didn't take it seriously. How could an australian team lose if they had.

If they win. Yes they did.

Gutted Sam has left league but probably a blessing for this game. I think if he was still in the team would have been slightly too steep a hill to climb.
Hopefully all the games will be great games. I love the idea of seeing more of the top teams go head to head.

I'd imagine one Michael Maguire to take it seriously with relation to a previous employers distaste for Saints.

Should be a cracker!

Well it's looking more and more like a full house. Even the bronze edges are down to single seats.

So should be a packed night at LP. Will probably be something of a bizzare atmosphere with no away fans and all 4 sides packed with Saints speccies.

But I imagine it will be a noisy start to the night.

Anybody got an idea of how the East stand is selling?

I think there will be away fans - namely Wigan fans supporting their former head coach!

There will be a few. Some Saints supporters were at Wigan for the WCC game v St. George in 2011, and as Saints Fan says they will probably cheering on the team trained their ex coach.

Well should add to the atmosphere if that is the case.
