[QUOTE="RoosTah, post: 625197, member: 12207"] I just realised no one had made a thread for this. Anyone watch the game on here? I was at the game last night, and it was a brilliant atmosphere and crowd - particularly considering the NRL did bugger all to promote the match. Stadium was pretty full and the noise was immense at times. The Roosters looked a little rusty at time and so did Wigan, but there was plenty of fire from both sides who were clearly both trying to make a statement with the match. Ultimately our boys just had way too much fire power, but Wigan didn't go quietly and dominated the middle 40. All in all it was a brilliant night, and I hope the NRL take notice and do more with this in the coming years. Personally, I'd love to see them rationalise the schedules of both the NRL and the ESL so that they can organise a Super Bowl style match 2 to 3 weeks after the respective finals of both comps. They could then alternate the home grounds year by year and the NRL could play an active part in boosting the profile of the English League. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
