2019 Crowd Watch

[Warriors Fever]

Should've played the 150million powerball last night

Ha ha

Thing is the quality of the experience is far more likely to be a deciding factor in attendance than the slight inconvenience of a few extra kms travel. 30k in Bankwest provides a much better RL experience than 30k at ANZ (if it gets to that many). The game is missing an opportunity if its not going to hype up attending Bankwest and make it the home of RL for the city.
Do people travel longer distances for better entertainment experiences? Yes they do.

If you are right and watching rugby league in your opinion isn’t a quality experience then piss off

 

[Bojackhorseman]

Well done. 32k is a good result[/QUO

 

[Bojackhorseman]

Absolutely. Shame it's not a bigger capacity! It will be a GREEN DAY!

Yay! I mean it. Yay!

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

I just watched the highlights after attending a work function at the MCG - well done manly fans, awesome effort!!

 

[Hello, I'm The Doctor]

decent crowd, cant complain.

Particularly for Manly fans.................

 

[Perth Red]

Good crowd. surprised by amount of manly fans that turned out. Was a strange game but that just seemed to creat a better atmosphere. Very enjoyable viewing.

I’ve been to anz in the rain when the crowd was 10k, it was a sht experience. Not every rl experience is a good one, sigh.

Having attended there was a real late rush with the crowd. In the end it was pretty much 50-50, maybe slightly more Manly fans. Kudos to them for traveling so far on a Friday night.

So should we expect a sold out Canberra next week?

I reckon there'll be demand for at least 40k

It'll definitely sell out, but If they can organise temporary seating and stretch the standing room we'll get close to 30k instead of the current 25k capacity.

One swallow doesn’t a summer make.

 

[Bojackhorseman]

Yes. I've mentioned this game deserves 40000. But 32000 plus is ok . South Sydney fans let the number down I suggest.

So it wasn’t the weather, the promotion or the prices? You were simply wrong?

LOL so now admits ANZ and rain without cover is a sh*T experience in Sydney, where travel is far different to Perth and any other major Oz city.
Save this for posterity.
In fact if the day had not had dark clouds rolling around the whole day, it may well have gone close to 40K.

They should totally get some temporary seating in.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

We have just had a decent storm head through Melbourne, only really heavy rain, now it is sunny. Better half is flying back from Sydney and said that the plane was chokers with parra fans. I think they will bring about 3-5k tonight.

You’d hope there’d be 25000 plus in attendance tonight.

I saw some articles early in the week suggesting they were trying to get approval for temporary seating, but then never heard anything else and ticketek released the map with no suggestion of it. I hope something can be organised.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

I hope so. I am heading there and sitting in the parra bay with a work mate who is a parra fan so I won’t be able to tell if the crowd is larger than last week because I’ll be looking at the usually empty side.

If the usually empty side has seats occupied then that's a good sign . Hope that happens !
