I hope it is a success but i really have my doubts.Undoubtedly some people from Australia will go over there to watch it but i don't see it getting much local support,hopefully i am wrong.

I dunno....i think theyll rock up.but geez 9.30 on a work/school night is tough....hopefully they can do it during school.holidays there

Origin is NSW v QLD.
I don’t like shifting games away from these bases.
I don’t like letting players who don’t represent Australia play either but that’s another argument.

It’s ridiculous timing.
You would pretty much need the next day off work/school if you attended it.
The games are on way too late for kids as well.
