10943 at ANZ stadium to watch the Rabbits - that is pathetic - truly pathetic

It seems like the more season ticket holders you get.. the lower the crowd numbers go. How on earth do you explain that crowd tonight?

Less than their season ticket memberships.. disgraceful. This is the main reason why i posted in the game thread saying it was 'disgraceful' that this was a Friday Night game.. yep.. let's expose our crap crowds in massive empty stadiums... on national tv

Whoever came up with the idea of an 8:30 game on a Friday night needs to be dismissed immediately.

flummexed by the crowd at WIN. looked sure to be around 18k and they issued a release on their website saying it was SOLD OUT.

http://www.dragons.com.au/?s=article-display&id=23608

surely a sell out means capacity reached and isnt its capacity around 19K?? Some glorious misinformation there by the dragons.:crazy:

Did anyone notie that the commentators seemed taken aback by the crowd figure as well. i think they thought it was close to capacity as well.

Disappointing crowd and I wonder if their loss last week had something to do with this.

Having said that they were playing a team from interstate and when you compare the Dragons/Dogs numbers for 2 big Sydney clubs, 16,000fans, its probably not too bad.

Souths with all there hype should be getting 25000 a game but with sh*t crowds like that maybe they should play at Redfern.
Sydney needs less clubs.

I'm kinda glad the game got bad crowd.

Hopefully the ****** won't put games on at 8:40pm at night anymore.

How many families would take there kids to see a footy game that doesn't finish until 10:30pm? Especially when they can watch not one but two games in their lounge room for free.

Also many people from Eastern or Western Sydney who have to catch public transport wouldn't get home until well after 12am. Good luck finding families who are willing to be on public transport around that time of night.

Pisspoor effort by Souths fans. In saying that I was there and I noticed there weren't many kids there.. a lot of the families around my area in the season ticket seats weren't there... the game didn't kick off until 8:50 FFS! Oh and it doesn't help playing a club with no supporters in Sydney.

Still, it should've been up around the 15k mark.

I blame the nations obesity crisis... i think games with hills at them, should charge people by the kilo this is an outrage.

Kate Moss could fit onto that hill 25000 times

The next time some twat from the NRL makes any mention of crowd being important, stone the bastard. Playing a game against a club with no supporters at 8.50 on Friday night - may as well have played it in Jupiter at midnight.
