2007 Crowd Watch

[Dr Crane]

Aye. 3rd and 5th highest crowds at WIN Stadium ever. Great stuff.

I'm still miffed about that round 13 crowd though. The local derby against the Sharks on a public holiday and it could only pull 12,455. Quite odd.

The good people of the 'gong probably don't like bad smells.

Between Lake Illawarra and the Steelworks I reckon we're used to the odious odours!

 

[Timmah]

Gotta say, the chimneys letting out the fire over at the steelworks of a night look f**king awesome from WIN

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

I'm looking at the draw and cursing the fact that the Tigers are playing Souths at Leichhardt and the Roosters are playing Souths in the final round in the graveyard timeslot.

Both have the potential to draw huge but will be restricted for various reasons. Roosters and Souths should be FNF.

Im rejoicing the fact that Tigers are playing Souths at Leichhardt. It will be good to end the season with a win and then get beaten by Melbourne by 60 points the following week.

I think Brutus is eluding to the fact WES v SOU @ Telstra would get a 20k+ crowd ;-)

13,508 was the figure in Melbourne.

Where do you find the laughable crowd figures for the ARC?

It was actually 2,490. http://www.qru.com.au/qru/qru.rugby/page/64671/section/62590
The four fixtures so far
3,547

That's beyond woeful.

Lowest crowd was 12,127, that ranks 8th best of all time for normal home-and-away type rounds.

The highest lowest is 14,844, Rd 5 2005... the top five were all in 2005.

 

[Ice777]

our crowds are up at least 30%

Brookevale 2006: 15,484
Brookevale 2007: 14,527

Up at least 30%. Now either you pulled that figure out of your arse hoping that nobody would check to see if it's right, or you're just not real clever. I'm pretty sure it's both but i'm leaning even more so towards the latter.

Old Gongy is a bit of a struggler.

This is just further proof.

 

[Timmah]

Paul - I'm afraid tonight will earn the honour of lowest crowd of the round.

 

[Timmah]

As I said: 7,618.

[Cheesie-the-Pirate]

Have you got updated home crowd averages for all the teams dodge-o?

 

[Timmah]

Not during the game ;-)

Later

 

[Cheesie-the-Pirate]

I thought you might have some Excel/Access thing to pump 'em all out automatically. I've a basic Excel spreadsheet for Dragons games but I've never got around to doing it for all fixtures.

 

[Timmah]

We need 131,370 per round for the final three weeks to reach 3mil.

Big crowds coming up:
R23
Brisbane v Bulldogs - 42,000
Storm v Eels - 13/14,000
Cowboys v Dragons - 18/19,000
Rabbitohs v Sea Eagles - 22,000
(IMO)

R24
Bulldogs v Storm 22,000
Warriors v Manly 21,000
Broncos v Raiders 28,000
WT v Souths 18/19,000
Saints v Eels 17,000

R25
Cowboys v Bulldogs 19,000
Rabbitohs v Roosters 26,000
Manly v Saints 17,000
Eels v Brisbane 18,000


That's all JMO with the crowd guessing but some real potential in the final few rounds....
