20,698 - well done Melbourne
Haha atleast I got the 20k right and 69er lol20,698 - well done Melbourne
except when the sharks are at home. drags the average down every 2nd week for years.Ahhh how good, 20k+ crowds are becoming standard down here, to the point that anything less would have felt a little underwhelming tonight.
Game is absolutely thriving all over.
Mate it’s brutal atm to say it’s a summer sport now over here, mud and rain everywhere. I look forward to the NRL as apart from the odd game the standard and entertainment on show blows ours out of the water.Dewsbury Rams will have to do mate.

Exactly. I remember having to wait until 11.30pm, avoiding scores etc to watch us play Friday night games back in 06/07.I lived in Melbourne for 12 years from 2005 and the growth from outright hostility to begrudging acceptance was very obvious.
I now think we can safely say that the storm, yes with all their success and all, have carved out a genuine niche in the market. It takes a while but it is so good for the game.
To give some context, for the first three years I lived there, I had to go to an advertised pub which had Impaja to watch origin because nine wouldn’t show the game til after midnight. We’ve now had three consecutive club games with 20k plus in attendance.
AFL Gather Round is the middle week of school holidays. You could fixture the Storm game for 2025 now.Not sure if the AFL or NRL draw comes out first but Storm should be playing Friday or Saturday night during the reach around. It should be their third event game alongside Anzac and the Warriors game.
Clearly you've never had to lug a toddler or a whole family to a sporting event! It's difficult even without adding torrential rain to the mix.If fans don't show up coz it's raining, well they're not really fans. I mean so what if it rains, does rain freaking harm them or something, its only water, wear a fkn rain coat, Whoopi doo
I’m sure he will say he has on countless occasions with out any trouble at allClearly you've never had to lug a toddler or a whole family to a sporting event! It's difficult even without adding torrential rain to the mix.
First of all if you have a toddler, you wouldn't take them.to the footy if it's pissing downClearly you've never had to lug a toddler or a whole family to a sporting event! It's difficult even without adding torrential rain to the mix.
