Good crowd at the SFS today , must be around 20k , maybe a bit more.
must be all those kiwis from bondi.

True, but the regional fans I speak to all have season tickets and will turn up regardless to get their value. The vast majority of the walk-up crowd will be from Townsville, so I think it is mostly them that are costing us the big crowds.beave said:and to think for years you have been telling us the team represents the whole north and that fans come from far and wide, not just around the 'Ville. You can't have your cake and eat it too nqboy. Don't just blame Townsville people for not turning up last night.

Packed? 20000? I don't think so. It's good to see a vast improvement in the Roosters crowds but try to keep it real guys.Timmah said:f**k, The Ground Formerly Known As Aussie Stadium is packed!

My bitterness comes in part from a slanging match I had with some loud-mouthed Townsvillain who was dissing them and suggesting they move to Cairns after a poor performance some time ago. I know there are thousands of loyal locals but I found his complacency disturbing. Probably, it would be no different for Cairns-ites if they had NRL footy on offer every week, but I'd bag them too if that were the case.

especially when they showed the western side , it was really packed.
