Congrats to all..a brilliant advert for the greatest game...and the crowd played a big part in making it such a great occasion. 10/10

Not many will have on either side of the field. Australian games have the atmosphere of a library and most of them the stands are far back from the pitch with 20,000 people spread out in 50,000+ capacity stadia.



It must be amazing to come over here and play in a ground like that with the fans right on top of the field.

Soliola on the crowd- "It was touching. I can't explain it...it was incredible".



Rugby League put on a great show tonight, let's have more of the same!

Best fiver I've ever spent. Some massive hits but no foul play. Greaf advert for the game. SBW no try after all the hard work he did and then slipped on his was funny as was the Samoan player in the first half reaching for the try line from about 10yards out. Did he think he mr tickle?

We was at the game, enjoyed some great banter with the Warrington fans. Samoa really responded to the support, great advert for our game, well done on doing RL proud.

Wire fans embarrassing the sport AGAIN

Loved the game. It will probably go down as one of the best games I've seen live. This is probably due to not having a strong alliance to a team playing. Some top hits and quality points scored.

Loved the banter and the singing. Well done to all involved in making it possible.

I have to say that was a quality exhibition of rugby league. It has given me a better appreciation of the international game and gone some way to change my mind towards this competition vs an Ashes series.



It was a great atmosphere at the HJ as Samoa mounted their come back. So glad I was there for it. Your ground is ideal for RL.



It's been a good opening weekend for the tournament. The OZzurri impressed on Saturday as well.

I was about 20 yards from SBW's cock up, was brilliant going from starting to applaud the try then joining in with a 3k-strong chorus of pointing and laughing. Great game, great atmosphere. Just brilliant all round.

Didn't You join in to "You fell over" along with "Who are ya"

Haha no, I was too busy laughing for the next 5 minutes

Watched on TV and was gripped from start to finish. Atmosphere sounded terrific. Cracking advert for the game and showed that, as fans, we can appreciate commitment and skill no matter what our club or country allegiances. Many sports could learn from what we offer.

Fantastic occasion, some stunning hits and amazing atmosphere. So glad that I went. I hope Samoa come second in their group and return for the quarter final at the HJ as I have tickets for that one too.



Just watched the game back, and was it my imagination or did Nobby sound so much better than he does when working with Dave Woods or Ray French?

Watching the game back last night, I thought the same. Voss is exactly what a commentator should be! Knowlegdable, exciting and funny. Sky should listen to the commentary team from last night and feel VERY ashamed of the product they offer.

Exactly the point I was going to make. Got home from the game and watched it again on Premier. The commentary was outstanding. Can you imagine what would have been said by the Sky Clowns after some of those big hits??? Great work by Premier.

Hats-off to the Warrington public for creating a great atmosphere last night, in what was the best game of the WC so far. Voss needs to be signed-up by Sky...

The way Vossy was treated during his fall out with that idiot Hadley was pathetic, especially when Voss is ten times the man and caller he ever will be.

You couldn't replicate that atmosphere for a Warrington match because we wouldn't be neutral.



If Warrington had been Samoa last night by half time the fans would have been booing, cursing, choosing which individuals to slag off, the only highlight would have been when that guy who whistles when the opposition make a mistake whistling at Sonny Bill.



If we'd have been New Zealand then the atmosphere would have gone flat once we opened up a big lead and the talk on the forums afterwards would have been "is Super League meaningless now", the atmosphere is flat, the only reason they got back in to the game is because we slacked off and gifted them some tries.

I must say well done wire, a great atmosphere at very good game. I thought the crowd was a big help in making this match a great advert for our game, well behaved and very appreciative of what was on show.

"Oh Samoa is wonderful, oh Samoa is wonderful, it's full of ****, *****, and Samoa, oh Samoa is wonderful".



Well done to the blokes who got the singing going. Brilliant night.

The phantom whistler seemed to be near us in the NE Corner last night & it sounded like he had an apprentice with him so we could have another one to listen to next season.



I thought , from that corner, the ground looked fantastic full to the rafters & i'm only too pleased Samoa started scoring or it would have been a long & quiet second half. It was great to see the game explode into life & give the amazing fans a treat. I hope the RFL have done some careful planning to get what will be lower attended games paired up with with smaller stadia so they mostly look full to capacity on tv.

Sent an email this morning suggesting that the council looks into twinning with a town in Samoa. Think it would be a great way to ensure the World Cup has a long lasting legacy.

Sonny Bills Balls up and the hakas are the two most watched videos on the BBC website at the minute...great stuff

Really enjoyed the choir supplying the pre-match - quality...



Brave and good decision to cover Pompeii by Bastille - it worked well. If anyone knows their leader and members - congratulations and praise is due..



The way most of the crowd got behind Samoa - just magic - and do remember there were thousands from outside Warrington joining in here!



Great stadium - perfect for rugby league - the game has spoken for itself - awesome..

I think it'll be interesting now to see how further ticket sales develop after what was such an impressive start to the World Cup Competition.



The England performance against a superior-but-yet-to-get-going side, an impressive debut from the Italians (with a not too shabby Welsh performance), the closeness of the PNG / France duel and a wonderful advert for the game (and supporters) from NZ and Samoa will surely generate more interest in filling the terraces.



I am looking forward to the Fiji vs Ireland game tonight at Spotland as there is a large Fijian community based in Rochdale so support should be good there too. After last night's match, I wish I was going.



May look at getting to the Scotland vs USA game at Salford and quite fancy USA vs Wales at Wrexham.



If others are feeling like me, maybe we could get some more full houses and a great groundswell of interest in our game which could lead to more support for the national leagues?



I'm LOVING it !
