    No photo of the attendance? You were really reliable for that last year.

    Over the last couple of years the “woke” crowd have been telling us that’s what they want! That must have been why there was such a big crowd last night!
    Virus or no virus very disappointed!

    Wasnt displayed otherwise I would have. The Force are using the Waratahs tactics this year, fighting fire with fire it seems. Wait till the East coast see our average over 1 game..

    It was a very sad sight seeing the empty stands but I know at least 6 people who didn’t go because of the virus so I’m sure that effected numbers big time. Thought the entertainment and kids stuff was great. It’s hard to see what’s going to happen now with the travel etc.. it must be so disheartening to all involved!

    .......and you sounded completely lucid, X. Despite some disparaging aspersions cast about by a certain dodgy bookie.

    If the RWA community rugby comps go ahead, I guess the Force players will be free to play for the Premiership clubs they’ve each been assigned to.

    In which case, I will pull out every stop to try and get as many of the Sea of Blue along to their local rugby clubs as possible. That is probably the best way we can show our support for the game and the players at the moment.

    I just hope that Andrew Forrest is able to continue his financial support for the staff and players of every team in GRR by continuing to pay them during these horrendous times. Please continue with your generosity Mr Forrest if you can.

    Choices were make to attend or not to attend.pleasing was that those who did attend saw some brilliant rapid rugby played. Big shame the competition had been suspended. The virus was the biggest cause of the low attendance. Took public transport and for the first time in the last three years we were the only passengers on the bus. Bus driver said it was like that all night.
