mattyg said:yeah last night i think they allowed everyone out in the rain to move up higher, but when you purchase tickets on ticketek they don't let ya sit in the 2nd elevation. When the sky opened up everyone starting filing up to the higher elevation (which is under cover). You can't buy tickets up there usually.

19k average, let's hope Carrara and Telstra inspire - it's a beautiful day in Sydney today so hopefully the Soufs crowd is a good one.

Anzac Day was about as good as could have hoped for, given the conditions and how the two sides were going.
The Dogs/Tigers game was a little below my expectation, but to those who were expecting 30k+, I think they were always going to be disappointed.
The crowd in Brisbane was pretty solid, the crowd in Penrith I thought would be attended by 9 or 10k, so not too far off there. And the Cowboys match was slightly below par.
All in all it has still been a pretty good round. I think Souths will get 15-16k today and a similar crowd will show up on the Gold Coast.
