The tournament had been preceded by doubts and pessimism; many feared that it would produce one-sided-matches that would be unattractive to supporters. The forthcoming Super League War hung over the tournament, with the Australian Rugby League refusing to pick players who had signed for the rival competition. In the event, the fears proved unfounded, and the cup was acclaimed a great success. Although many early matches did prove as one-sided as feared, fans still flocked to see "exotic" nations such as Fiji, Tonga and South Africa, mainly for the novelty value of such encounters. Large home crowds for the group involving Wales proved particularly encouraging. The final between Australia and England drew a crowd of 66,540 to Wembley Stadium . GROUP 1 Results Final standings
