England v Fiji (RLWC warm up game) - Match thread

Surely this needs a thread. 

I'll kick things off, what's up with the attendance? We moan about a lack of internationals and then we can only fill the smallest stand of the AJ bell

Thanks for the thread Hughsehhh.

Yes, not a big crowd but this is a low key fixture and before the big event.

Looking forward to this. Particularly seeing Farnworth and Young at this level.

Hoping for a good England win, tough contest, and no soft tries!

great hymn!

Agreed. I know it's sneered upon nowadays to be Christian but that was moving and an amazing dichotomy to the ensuing brutally of the game

What the hell is this camera angle? What's wrong with having it from the usual spot in the main stand? 

Genuinely believe some bright spark thought it'd look better facing the stand with fans in....rather than considering the actual angle from that tiny stand 😑

feed has broken up a couple of times, but no real drop. Wish they'd drop Earl though.

They made the mistake of listening to fans who were angry that the cameras are never pointed at the busiest stand.

Now they are angry that it is.

And being angry on two (at last count) separate match threads.

It's the same on social media - check out any professional Football match and the vast majority are posting with a consistent hashtag, like #MANUvLIV. Most of the exceptions are the kind of incoherent nutjobs that are probably best ignored.

Any RL match - all over the place, so following even a big final is a fragmented experience.

Dom Young does what he’s been doing !

And the great thing is that, when you watch him in week-by-week club action, he's still developing and improving.
