I don't know how many have been sold at the RFL but they hadn't exactly had a rush the last I'd heard.

Will it sell-out?

Exactly. The RFL have gone way over the top with ticket pricing. They should have learned from the 2009 Four Nations. Empty seats at both Doncaster for England v France and at Wigan for England v Australia.

And the game against NZ despite it being a massive game.

Indeed. Neutrals won't pay £40 for this so to answer the question above - no it won't sell out. Particularly with the Magic Weekend being 2 weeks before it. It could actually sell poorly outside of Wigan.

It will be pretty embarrasing.

I'm still very confident it will sell out, or at least come very close to doing so.

Anything less than 20,000 will be embarrassing, anything less than a sell out at least a week before the match will be disappointing but not a surprise.

We really need to drum up support and get the 'bandwaggoners' along...

a question to Matt (ticket office Matt)
i've bought two tickets already. if i wanted to add another one to that but there isn't a single next to the two i alreasy have, how easy is it to move the existing two tickets to another area?

A friend has just telephoned.
He wanted two £40 tickets in the West Stand. He tried Wigan but was told to contact the RFL.

When he telephoned the RFL the £40 West Stand tickets have all been sold, so he had to get the £30 ones.

Looking good.

I would expect the West stand to be part reserved for sponsors, RFL exec and any touring Australians.
