    2024 Crowd Watch

    I think the crowd figure was a pass + the TV ratings were good. All in all, a decent end to a strong season. The game is in good health. Some good scheduling, more event games + the big Sydney clubs getting their shit together means it's exciting to contemplate what could be in store for us...

    The same game at the same venue on the same night with the same weather, when Penrith was a fraction of the way through its dynasty got over 50,000 vs South Sydney. And that was when you still had to isolate for a week with covid

    This crowd really highlights the difference between the big Sydney clubs and the not big Sydney clubs.

    Early indication Transport for NSW is planning for a crowd of around 40,000 for the Preliminary Final at Accor:

    I think it’s conflated by non-RL people who don’t understand the difference between Rugby Union and Rugby League. They often call league ‘Rugby’ and it’s a broad brush approach to the ‘other’ codes. And it’s safe to say Rugby Union is dying in this country, definitely in comparison to the other...

    I don’t, that was more of a broad comment on the vibe in Melbourne this weekend which is a lack of enthusiasm for the teams in the AFL Grand Final.

    I'm in Melbourne this weekend and now the last Victorian team has been eliminated from the AFL, they seem a bit lost as to who to go for and certainly won't be piling into the MCG as if there was a Victorian team. As a result I think the NRL draws well and can sell out on Friday night. Accor...

    The constant changes to the seating map and the on-again, off-again availability of Level 4 East has thrown me. No idea what tomorrow will look like.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Cronulla vs North Queensland is selling into Level 4 East. Historically, this means the crowd is likely to be upwards of 25,000. This was most recently demonstrated by the Roosters vs Raiders in Round 26 which drew 27,239 with Level 4 East open.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    On Cronulla vs North Queensland, it appears TfNSW is planning for a combined crowd of around 75,000 at Moore Park on Friday night. If my Maths holds up, that would comprise: - Up to 44,000 at the SCG for the Swans - Up to 25,000 at Allianz Stadium for Cronulla vs North Qld - Up to 5,000 at...

    8pm update on Roosters vs Manly: - Black = sold out - Red = single seats only - Yellow = limited availability This is definitely on track for a sellout.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Why would you send Cronulla fans to Parramatta though? There's limited parking at CommBank (same as Allianz), so the majority of the crowd would likely be required to travel further and longer by taking three modes of public transport (T4 to Central, T1 to Parramatta, bus or walk to the stadium)...

    ^^ Very good. Canterbury vs Manly was at about 24k at a similar time on the Tuesday after release to general public. Roosters vs Manly on track for a sellout.

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Imagine the potential for Canterbury crowds in 2025: - Home game vs Rabbitohs on Good Friday at Accor Stadium (current record is 51,686 in 2013) - Home game vs Eels on King's Birthday at Accor Stadium (current record is 45,496 in 2024) - (Requested) home game vs Dragons at Accor Stadium on a...

    And despite Manly being a feature today it was still the biggest Week 1 finals crowd of the NRL era.

    The amateur Sharks being dragged kicking and screaming to the professional arena that is Allianz Stadium. Good. The Sharks and the NRL should now go hard on promoting the event to Cronulla fans and neutrals. The Roosters and Manly should sell out. The Roosters have been drawing well at Allianz...
