Hmmm. Soccer fields are much smaller than rugby ones too. So hmm, maybe not be able to convert to league. Olympic looks like it'd be an easy conversion. You would probably get a lot of Catalans supporters, some Warrington then yeah, the Spanish public. You could fill it.

I agree with Jim, Mini estadia would be good 16k would be a great crowd. |

No you couldnt, never in a million years Ryan Probaby not, how big's the stadium? Im guessing its not much more than 20k so thats where my estimates came from. |

Yeh it would have been the perfect size, although Ryan does make a point about the size issue, it looks like it can barely fit a football pitch. What are the measurments of a football field compared to a rugby field? RL field is minimum 112m long and 65 across correct? |

Depending on how well they promote it and what the costs are I think the game could get 15k+, maybe 20k but alot would have to go right. I hope they play more games in Barca than 1, don't know how many they'll have to miss at SGB though. A few at Aime Giral, a few at Montpelliar and few at Barca would be nice. I would even consider Paris TBH. |

I honestly dont know, but Ryan is right soccer pitches are smaller than Rugby pitches i think as a rule of thumb the soccer pitch is a similar length to a rugby pitch without the in goal areas, i would say a rugby pitch is wider too |

I would even consider Paris TBH. They shouldnt be playing outside Catalan territory for me, the French wouldnt really be up for watching a Catalan side IMO, but I do agree they should take games on the road, to Barca, to Lieda's Camp d'Esports and the Nou Estadi in Tarragona none of these are over 20k but at the end of the day its about spreading positive messages and full stadiums will do that, not to mention spreading the Dragons name around Catalonia. |
