Lol @ Timmah having a f**king sixth sense for discussions involving the Dragons and running third man.
I don't have an excuse for 6,000 v Cronulla and don't care, maybe everyone else was in the same boat as me and had a birthday party to attend to? But IIRC it rained that night so there's half an excuse, throw in Sharks fans don't travel anywhere outside of the Shire - what's your excuse for 12,000 at Kogarah v Gold Coast on a Friday when we got 9,000 v Gold Coast on a monday. We heavily outnumbered two of the so called largest supported Sydney teams in Wests and the Bullscum, matched the Saints and had a 60:40 split against Souffs but keep pointing to monday night matches against Queensland teams.
Sixth sense? This is one of the threads I regularly check into because it's a topic that interests me, not everything is about your crackpot theories mate.
Saints/Titans 12,000 was a great crowd for the occasion if I recall correctly - Canterbury and Parra were both on the comeback trail and played at the same time at ANZ so there would've been little focus on the Dragons, add to that the cold weather and the fact it was the Titans, 12k is a pretty decent showing.
As for heavily outnumbering the Bulldogs and Tigers, I'd love to know when. Matched the Saints? :lol:
And yet they never sell it out. In fact they never even came close all year, even for their finals game or the game in which they wrapped up the minor premiership.
For the most supported team in the comp I'd expect that they could get closer to capacity with regularity, wouldn't you?
Also, Brisbane have by far the best home and away average, so unclear what you are getting this "best supported team in the comp" thing from
Assuming capacity these days is around 18,500, I'm gonna call you full of sh*t. The Souths game was packed to the rafters and the Manly showing was similar in size IMO despite the posted figure.
When was the last time the Roosters managed capacity? ;-)
And again, if you
actually check the stats in the 2010 Crowd Statistics thread like I suggested, you'll see the Dragons are by far the best supported team AWAY.
I'm expecting the Steelers faithful to come in here utterly convinced that they actually expanded ANZ Stadium specifically for this game to fit in another 40,000 of their fans, and the NRL's official figure must be somehow wrong
:lol: never mind phil rothfield's crying fit last year where he alleges certain games can just automatically get "50,000". I'd take more issue with his rubbish than what some fans might say on here.
