With an ever increasing injury list they just keep getting better!
Special mentions for Pryce, Graham, Roby, Eastmond and Wellens.
The rest were pretty special too!

As an aside, I think it's about time the RL stopped these 'Magic' games.
The number of empty seats looked awful.
Either take it back to Wales and make them derbies again or shelve the idea altogether.

Or take it to a smaller ground.

Don't have Sky so have to settle for listening to radio (usually via t'interweb). From the commentary, it sounded like they were totally awesome. Hope my bro or my cous got it recorded.

I went to the Cardiff ones and both Edinburgh. Enjoyed every one. This year was a really great weekend.

I have absolutely no idea (apart from the obvious economic) why this weekend has not caught on.

I'd change the games though...

I'd wait till the Monday before the weekend before anouncing the games. Then according to the league table I'd have 1st play 2nd and 3rd play 4th etc. all the way down. That way you'd be playing for 2 points and probably your league position to your nearest rivals.

I enjoyed the games on Sky but the thin audience seemed to drain away any atmosphere. Had I been able to pursuade my wife to go we'd have stayed in the Peebles Hydro and travelled the 30 minutes each way to Murrayfield daily. A far better and more convenient hotel than any of the Edinburgh city centre hotels, and probably less costly too

Why the crowds where not has big this year is because of the football matches being played this weekend.they should put it back a couple of weeks till the football season has finished.people do go to both rugby and football matches.one bloke said to me that there where more people there on saturday than sunday,i had to tell him that on saturday there where eight lots of fans supporting eight different teams,on sunday there was only six teams playing,it took a while for it to sink in,i am not saying which team he supported but it was not wigan.
