Attendance of 19,320, the largest crowd to ever witness a Rugby match - League or Union - in Colorado! And no, we would not have fit in to the soccer stadium. That’s only 18,061. Thank you to the EVERYONE who came out to the game today! #RugbyLeagueChallenge

While we can’t “unhear” Saturday’s anthem, THANK YOU Crystal Collins for the apology and seeking redemption! #RugbyLeagueChallenge #DenverTest #Anthem

Wayne Bennett is building a dynasty with this English squad. Great bunch of lads, all about football. Hard to deal with NZ being comprehensively beaten, however, they’ve now got Michael Maguire to mould them into the force they should be. International Rugby League is looking up!
The lads were fanboying when @russellcrowe visited the dressing room after the game 😍😂 Watch all the best Behind the Scenes from Denver on the #OURLEAGUE app & website now ➡️ https://t.co/rGBnsb2hjy

Great news it’s not a hard rule for players to be kept out of action this weekend after the flight home. And thank you @RaidersCanberra for sharing the boys. They were first class all the way.
#NRL As long as they're fit upon their return from Denver, @RaidersCanbera coach Ricky Stuart is expecting Elliott Whitehead & Joseph Tapine to play this week.

Build it and they will come...
Crowds queuing to get into Mile High Stadium for Test between New Zealand and England - there is also some tailgating in the car park. A quick observation suggests a lot of @NZRL_Kiwis fans

With #RugbyLeagueChallenge success to build on, critical to align stakeholders on a comprehensive North America strategy and collaborate on an Int’l window through 2025. #GrowLeague #DreamBig #AllBoatsRise #WindowIsClosing

Now the groundwork to take the game to America has been done – at considerable cost – by others, the NRL must decide where it stands on the issue.

Thank you for coming and being an ambassador of the game! #GrowLeague
@mikelavelle93 @RLChallenge1 Almost nobody around me in the stands knew the rules, kept asking me for clarifications, but we all had a hell of a good time. We all agreed we’d be back next year.

280 characters isn’t enough to sum up my feelings about this game. In my opinion 19K is a great attendance. #RugbyLeagueChallenge #DenverTest

Thank you @England_RL @NZRL_Kiwis for making history here in Denver. We’ll all look back on this with immense pride one day. Guessing more than 19,320 people are going to claim they were there, too. #GrowLeague #WeWereThere
