Sat 12th Nov: RLWC SF: England v Samoa KO 14:30

[Futtocks]

Blimey, the guy sounding the Last Post was shaking as he was about to start.

But he still barely split a note. Well played.

[ehbandit]

Wow, don’t people know how to do a min silence

[Chrispmartha]

Same as yesterday the minutes silence- nobody understood what to do!

Maybe there still coming in?

Possibly some of them still queuing to get out of the Elland Road car parks

Must be in the queue like me

Blimming heck it looked terrible when they were in the tunnel, but people were clearly in the concourse, seems suddenly a lot better now.

Maybe latecomers into the stadium who didn't hear the announcement that the minute's silence was scheduled after the Last Post?

Can't stand people disrespecting the minutes silence.

It’s literally pointless counting empty seats before the game kicks off. Well it’s literally pointless anyway

[MatthewWoody]

Come on England! 

[Gerrumonside ref]

Looks better by the minute 

[Wendigo7]

Looks better and better. 40k looks about right actually 

[MatthewWoody]

The sound of Samoan anthem is beautiful.

[The Hallucinating Goose]

Aerial shot of the ground there still looked like there was quite a few outside.

Not one to complain about crowds. But why do they clearly lie about tickets sold, it doesn’t look anything near 40-45000 which was going round.

There's more full seats than empty seats. There's definitely 40ish thousand there.

[Maximus Decimus]

Feel sorry for the people singing the anthem, it's a matter of time before someone sings 'God save the Queen' out of nerves and becomes an Internet meme.

[MatthewWoody]

Radley just seems a happy guy.

[shrewsbury roughyed]

The mascots have been amazing all through the tournament. Really look as though they’re enjoying the occasion

Ye happy to wrong with this one  

[Futtocks]

IT'S A DISASTER!!!!

[DavidM]

Nice day for it 

[Dunbar]

I will probably get loads of stick for this but I am not a big fan of them getting into the England faces like that.

[Maximus Decimus]

I'm calling it now, we're going to lose.

It would be the most British RL thing ever to get eliminated by the same team we previously beat 60-6.
