Victorians crack jokes about how shite league is cos it cant pull big crowds compared to Afl.
The only way this is going to change is if everyone sees double the amount of games they saw last year, even if its not your team.
Thats my resolution any how.

Goin too every Bulldogs game in NSW and one interstate game is my yearly ritual (Unless i'm sick i keep too it :D )... I also go too about 4-5 other NRL games in the course of a year with my mates who support other teams (But i cant afford more then that haha)...

I think to pull crowds, instead of the harcore fans going to watch other teams, you need fringe supporters to start watching their team.

That's my News Year resolution also. I have calculated I'm goin to a maximum 19 Dragons games, barring finals games. I won't be goin to any out of state games.

I'll prolly end up goin to every game at Campbelltown Stadium also

Correct Cliffy. I have been a season ticket holder for about 10 years and went with about 3 mates. 3 has since turned into 25 further season ticket holders in 2004 and now we go close to 50 in 2005. My favourite story out of the 50 members is a guy from Hong Kong who knows bugger all about league. We took him to the Raiders semi vs Melbourne in 2003 at Bruce. He got a season ticket last year and when in Hong Kong recently he got a huge Viking banner made for about $300. He still doesn't really know the rules but loves it anyway. I believe that if people drag their fathers, brothers, mates, sister's boyfriend, whatever! then league will prosper and go bananas.

Aiming for every Cowboys home game except round 2 v the Dogs (on a flight to NZ), and away games v the Warriors and the Dogs at Carrara. As for the bloke that can't attend Sydney games because he lives in Canberra - Toughen up, Princess. If I was a Raiders supporter livign in Canberra, I'd be aiming at every Raiders game in NSW.

Are you knowledgable of the thuga's situation? Is work preventing him from attending ALL Sydney games? Schooling priorities? The all important dollar, is this a factor for him not attending? Does he drive?

Ignorant post nqboy targeted at thuga. (BTW, thuga, no need to elaborate on why you can't or won't be able to attend Sydney games as well...I was proving a point.)

I will get to Brisbane's sydney games and in between Sydney Rooster games. I will be in Brisbane for the Round 25 clash vs the Roosters...heaven!

I am also planning on attend the Sydney Origin encounter (is there 2 this season?).

Will attend at the very worst every home game at Parramatta. Will be travelling to Brisbane in April and will endeavour to catch most of the Sydney games. Probably only miss Melbourne, Warriors and Nth Qld....

Heading out to Parkes for the second trial game as well.

Well I'm going to as many Cowboys games in NSW as I can. A few Dragons ones, Charity Shield, a few Souths ones, a few Parramatta ones and I'm sure that my girlfriend will drag me along to a few Panthers games.

I'll be going to every Newtown game at Henson PL & JBC. All stand alone PL games as well plus JBC games that don't clash with the 2nd job.
Plus most Souths home games at SFS and time and girlfriend permitting, Norths home games at Bear Park.
And if there's nothing doing on a Sunday arvo, I'll end up going to Leichhardt to watch the Wastes Tiggers play.

Will go to every Panthers game in NSW and Canberra, as well as the Cowboys game in Townsville in July. Plans are in place to go to Origin 2.

And also my girlfriend is a Dogs supporter, but for some reason, she prefers to watch it on TV, as she "knows what the hell is happening".

I intend to change that, starting with the with the season opener against the Dragons.

I will attempt to crack 30 throughout the year.

I'm taylor-changing my honeymoon in NZ to move VERY rapidly from the bottom of the South Island to Auckland to ensure I get home to see the Broncos in town.

I love my Mrs - she gives good head too :lol:
