look it is straightforward.

If the games on the weekend had of been played at Kogarah Oval, Belmore Oval and the SFS (or if a redfeern oval existed) then they would have had more people attend.

League has always been about the barrier lines of suburbs and districts, they are taking that away from us more with every day.

Only if the sun is shining! and even then it is debateable as Bazza has shown.

Play a Sydney team, and play on Sunday afternoons, Sat night footy is a thing of the past!

It's weird because Saturday Night at Shark Park used to be bigger than Carmen's or Northies in the Shire...

...It occurs to me how well the Shire would adapt if simply grafted onto Queensland.

Take the bit about Monday night and you have described pretty much every Storm home game. Not to mention our awful home ground.

This might be a bit much to ask but does anyone want to waste some time for me? I was just wondering what the NRL crowds are estimated to be in 2012 and 2018 based upon the last 10 years (ie: since the formation of the NRL). Cheers.

Yeah I attended 2 games there last year it is a dump. I will look forward to watching some games at your new stadium , when is it due for completion.

Send the Sydney teams that don't make the finals to the NSW CUP and then have p/r between the nsw cup and the NRL, if that succeeds expand that to the QRL comps
I think it would end the hubris seen with the clubs these days and more sensible than teh conferences notions

Thats it, people would rather go to Northies and watch it over sitting in the cold freezing their ass off...
They should ban coverage at Northies.

Yes Cronulla always reminded me of somewhere in Queensland.
