Hope the Dragons can break the 10,000 crowd mark this week. I'd say they will dan, I think every club playing this weekend will get a crowd of 30,000, 40,000 maybe. |

OH I think you miss understood, I meant the Catalan Dragons playing the quins at home. they are averaging about 9,000 this season and hope a "local Derby" will tip them over the magic barrier. I don't think that there are any RL grounds in the UK (maybe headingley and Gralpham) that can hold 30,000!  |

Besides that the ground only holds about 9,400 hmmm, maybe they'l need to change stadiums soon, surely it would be better for them to play in a 15,000, 20,000 seat stadium, sure they average about 8,000 now but when they get good games they want to be able to seat over 10,000. Have they got any plans for switching stadium or stadium upgrade? |

Well let's hope so, any idea what size it will end up? Also leads me to think how big is the stadium for the France V england test in toulouse? and will that be the stadium the toulouse club will play out of if they get a license?
Also just looked it up that perpignan is 108,000 population so 9,000 to games isn't that bad for now. Toulouse is 366,000 so a bit of a difference in size there.
hmm amazing what you can learn on the internet, only paris has a population of over 1 mill and it's only 2.1 mill. Infact I'm beginning to think these figures aren't right. Good to see RL has a presence in alot of large cities 3. Lyon 4. Toulouse 9. Montpellier. OK so just found an extension, apparently the urban area of Paris is 11million and lyon and toulouse are both about 1 mill.
