Our crowds should be the one thing you should be sidestepping, considering we're the highest drawing team in NSW and hold the finals record attendance outside of a GF.

Yeah and you're also one of the highest drawing when it comes to off-field scandals.
And we are not to shabby in the attendance figures either.;-)

This year you guys came 7th overall in crowd rankings, managing to slightly pip the Roostera lol. I fear for the NRL if that's "not too shabby"

I think we had something to do with more then half of that.

I'd argue the more than half part, but yes, you guys certainly attributed.

Number of Live (Sydney) Friday night games

Dragons - 7

Bulldogs - 8

Parramatta - 7

Tigers - 6

As you can see, pretty close between Sydney's big 4. It gets a little more interesting when we average out the ratings for those games...

Dragons - 631,000

Bulldogs - 641,000

Parramatta - 655,000

Tigers - 619,000

Also interesting is to look at Fox ratings for those clubs...

Dragons - 223,000 average

Bulldogs - 232,000 average

Parramatta - 285,000 average

Tigers - 245,000 average

Take that for what you will but here's my summary:

*Bulldogs got more Friday night live games in Sydney than any other club
*Parramatta averaged the most in the FNL time-slot, followed by the Bulldogs then the Dragons
*Both Parramatta and the Tigers averaged more than the Bulldogs on FOX
*Dragons averged the least on FOX of the big 4

Further summation (Big 4):

Crowds - Dogs, Tigers, Parra, Drags
FNL ratings - Parra, Dogs, Drags, Tigers
FOX - Parra, Tigs, Dogs, Drags

Dragons last in 2/3 of the categories. Premieres too lol :lol:

Plus the Bulldogs claim to be the most supported club in regional NSW (see members brochure). So Dragons fans, try to follow...

Bulldogs number 1 in Sydney
Bulldogs number 1 in regional NSW

Bulldogs > St Merge

All of you fans must be located outside of NSW, maybe you should go and merge with an interstate team to bring the total number of clubs you draw fans from to 3.

Lol, any facts to back that up?

Dragons away crowds 33% better than anyone else. Surely that says that more dragons fans in other parts of the country.

They don't seem to translate into crowds, though.

Minor premiers 2 years in a row and you get thumped in the tv ratings and crowd rankings by 2 teams in the bottom half of the ladder.

Oh, refer to oztam and the NRL for those stats.

Well hopefully your fan numbers will double next year when the other half of your fanbase is paroled..
