On ensuring a sensational crowd for the game tomorrow. It's about time RL supporters stood up and got out to a game in massive numbers. It's a shame it doesn't happen in Sydney but I am totally impressed by what the Broncos will draw tomorrow. :)

Let's just hope 30k people don't show up half an hour before kick off ;-)

How small do you think Brisbane is? 800k in Brisbane itself, and a total of 1.75mil in Brisbane and surrounds. 1.9mil in Sydney itself, and a total of 4.2mil in Sydney and surrounds.

I think Melbourne can prove that statement is totally silly. Sydney has the same amount of teams as Melbourne and a much higher population.

Brisbane have proven this weekend that when RL people want to get out to a game they can.

The crowd on Friday night featuring teams 2 V 4 is a disgrace, compared to the ticket sales of 1 V 3.

Thanks.

Also thanks to the Dogs who'll definatly be a worthy opponent and I hope to see the best match I have ever seen at Suncorp.

Footy Show just said that ALL the tickets have been sold - no walk ups.

That means about 50,000 doesn't it?

There weren't 3000 empty seats there.

Maybe they measured it when there were 2 minutes left.

Yea there was barely any seats left. It was a monster crowd. Too bad about the result we just couldn't compete. The Bulldogs field a strong side all over the park, the Broncos field one with gaping holes.

I'm glad the Bulldog fans didn't burn down our new stadium though. ;-)

Very dissapointing. But better to be nailed like this before the finals. Let's hope the Broncos learn a few lessons.

Great crowd. Half a great game :(

I don't support either team, but I was there today and did my part.

I was very impressed by the massive numbers of doggie supporters actually. Sydney doggie supporters might have a bad rep, but the brissy doggie supporters were great today.

Congrats Dogs on a good game and good turnout.

I despaired of ever seeing Insane say anything that is remotely sensible. But he now HAS!

Finally, he has realised that there are too many teams in Sydney!

Well done Insane.
