Sat 5 Oct: Championship - Play-off Final: Toronto Wolfpack v Featherstone Rovers KO 7.30pm (TV)

[Roy Haggerty]

Toronto have messed up their own PTB three times now. That’s unforgivable in a tight final. Awful. 

[The Phantom Horseman]

Absolute grub stuff from Wilkin.

[Leyther_Matt]

Wilkin deserved that slap.

9,973 I think I heard as the crowd just now? Inevitably it opens questions about when they’ve announced relatively similar crowds with much less populated stands, but I’d much rather concentrate on the positive - it’s a bigger crowd than Wigan last night FFS!

Didn't hit him hard enough, horrible git. 

[Man of Kent]

Mellor with another TWP try

[DoubleD]

Wolfpack can’t even get a 10k crowd for their play off final. Disgraceful 

[DavidM]

How does mcrone get in ahead of Wallace . The guy is strong direct and hundred times more threatening

Think the tannoy geezer just said 9,974

More than Wigan got for their semi final 

There were 4000 Salford fans at that game, maybe 200 Fev fans

That’s nearly double the number of home fans for Toronto compared to Wigan, and some clubs/fans don’t want them 

[dkw]

Good try, good tackle on the ref at the end too. 

[Leyther_Matt]

Lovely step from Mellor there, it has to be said.

The earlier figures are easily explained: they're the number of tickets sold which included the number of ticket buyers who weren't physically there for one reason or another.  Obviously this match being much more important, pretty much every ticket buyer got themselves down to the stadium to be there in person.

I was impressed with him last week. He looks better than some of the centres currently in Super League.

Halves?

[Roy Haggerty]

Ok, that’s it now. Thank buggery for that.

If tickets are sold they count on the attendance, it’s the same at all Rugby League clubs

No-one deserved that slap, it was pathetic.

Wilkin deserved an uppercut (everyday).

[Man of Kent]

22-6 Toronto on 71

They really need to replace him with a top half next year

I thought this topic was supposed to be about the game?

Geez talk about the Jon Wilkin appreciation society.

I wonder if they might have a go at getting mclelland?

Suspect O'Connor will be slapping Wilkins bottom later, listening to him I can only assume their a thing!

The great crowd and atmosphere are part of the game, are they not?
