Super League Attendances: One game reaches 10,000 as other doesn’t reach 5K

Round Four of the Betfred Super League is now over and it was a terrific one.

The round started with a terrific Super League clash between Hull KR and Warrington Wolves which was edged by the away side.

Friday night in Super League was defined by the comeback wins from Leeds Rhinos and Salford Red Devils away at Leigh Leopards and St Helens.

Elsewhere, on Friday night, Castleford Tigers’ wait for a first Super League win went on as they were thumped by Huddersfield Giants.

Saturday concluded the action. Wigan Warriors defeated a valiant London Broncos side with a 60-22 win whilst Hull FC were equally valiant in defeat to Catalans Dragons.

They went down 26-12 to the Dragons after a gutsy display from the Black and Whites as they battle hard at the start of the season.

Attendances catch the eye

The crowds across Super League in the opening few rounds have been really impressive and that trend has continued this weekend.

Super League getting stronger and stronger

There are many fans who are still very negative about the current situation in Super League and want to see the likes of the NRL take over the competition.

However, the Betfred Super League is in fantastic shape with every game being shown live on Sky Sports and the BBC.

Meanwhile, the attendances are impressing again and again even with these TV games such as the hefty away following Salford Red Devils took to St Helens.
