You said in TFC that you go to Saints games and games at Homebush, because you live near there.

Did you lie, chandos?

I hope not.

We wouldn't want you to be exposed as a closet AFL fan and a not real supporter of Rugby League in Australia.

Dogs have a home ground average of 15, Tigers 15...

2-3k below combined averages.

*edit* 3164 under Dogs/Tigers combined home averages.

Bulldogs V Parra - Big Rivalry...
Wests V Manly - Fibros V Silvertales....

Fairly poor crowd given the games, in my opinion anyways.

I didn't expect it to get above 30,000 tbh. They tried to build it up with the Fibros-Silvers stuff during the week, but I don;t think that appeals to modern day casual fans, who might see the NRL as somewhat detached from its history...

And it felt emptier than the combined crowd figure, since a lot of Dogs/Eels fans seemed to turn up closer to their game time, and a lot of Tiges/Manly fans seemed to leave after their game.

I think they need to hold double-headers like that at the start of the season, when the four Sydney teams involved all still have the season ahead of them and optimism is high. You just can't guarantee that this close to the semis. And for a bigger crowd you also need to have it on a day/time when all three games (incl U20s) are not on live to Foxtel, giving people the option to get the same experience in the local pub, or tehir own loungeroom if they already pay for a subscription.

And the standard of ffoty on display was very poor anyway I thought! Even though my team won.
