Yeah, you pack in a wife and 2 or 3 teenage kids and it is no longer a $20 outing. And Truth was correct, pissing rain and you couldn't take in your umbrella.
That 2007 trail, again, it was a terrible game and frankly the coast gets bugger all support from the QRU and it is showing because people on the coast have had a gutfull. On top of that, they have their egular teams and there was no identification with the Aces - as was the case around the country - the whole ARC failed, not just on the coast so please don't use the coast as an isolated example when the crowds were not as expected everywhere and they were no worse here than anywhere else.
As for the trail matches, please come up with figures. I was there and the stands were packed, you couldn't park within cooey of the ground so I have no idea to what games you are referring, so please get facts as your assertion is crap.
