2015 Crowd Watch part II

[Cumberland Throw]

Felt like none of the players were at all interested today

But the crowd was good. Would have got 9k at sfs. And maybe 10k at robina

Central coast I think might not even need a team.

They could host adhoc games every week incl Monday night's

Will always get 12k + and always looks good on tv.

And that's all that matters

Leichhardt:- 14,234

Agreed. The Roosters game looked great on TV. So did the Wests game for that matter. Good advertisement for the game in NSW.

God! I feel like I need to wash my mouth out after saying that!

What a shit day. It's just not a Sydney NRL game without at least 30,000 empty seats and a dead atmosphere. There needs to be an investigation.

Really happy for the club after the crowd at gosford today, exceeded my expectations by a long way. They have done great ground work across the coast since the partnership with CCRL was announced and they have been very visible in doing so. Plus they had clinics and visits the past week with mini involved in a big way.

Long term i think people up here just want to be taken seriously and respected, not just to be used to offload games and make a quick buck. We have 1 game a season over 5 years set in stone but i would not be surprised to see that increase by the 4th or 5th year. Given the nature of the population and the fact that anybody who cares follows a sydney club from birth anyway i dont think a central coast NRL entity is neccessary tbh. Ultimately i hope we can become one of the larger supported teams on the coast through the work they are doing on the ground and elite pathways. And build to maybe 4 games at gosford a year down the track

Terrible crowd.

Would have got 12k at Homebush and 10K at Penriff...

Last time these teams met at Penrith they got just on 17,000. It was a Sunday game too.

 

[Chook Norris]

Anyone who attended that game will be off rugby league for life

Whilst the standard was poor, it wasn't boring rugby league. There was some enterprise and attack involved. Much better than a pure hit-up garbage dominated game full of mistakes

Time to abandon the nrl's 20k pipe dream and build some 18k stadiums in Sydney to make the crowds look good?

Agree, Roosters have a great opportunity to expand their fan base and assist the NRL in covering the Central Coast. A pre season game against Newcastle could be taken as well maybe?

1500 GA tickets remain for Belmore according to the Bulldogs Twitter page however no one knows what the crowd will be capped at...

18,000

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Roosters should bite bullet and put 4 games a year on CC...

get access to all the talented kids, get better crowds, probably get 10k members extra...

shame it wasnt a northern sydney team who did it... oh wait

 

[axe&smash&crush]

Bravo to the Bulldogs for pursuing their traditional home, it looks like it will be a great event for rugby league in the area. Finding the right balance between big stadiums and small in order to increase crowds is very important, having two matches a year versus reasonable competition sounds like a pretty thoughtful decision and the right balance

The Roosters stayed in avoca where i live, I think they have before as well. On my way to the beach I saw a few of the boys shooting hoops with a bunch of kids at the park and taking photos, RTS cordner etc. That was on Sat afternoon. They also got in visit to Avoca primary school on Friday as well so good on them for taking the time to do these things, no one would bat an eye lid if they said they couldn't do it due to preparation so close to a game.

Whats best is most of the kids down there where probably there for the local Rugby Union which had all three grades on as well as the juniors ealier so maybe they converted a few, though plenty of kids do both up here.

Guys the game tonight is officially a Sell Out!

Shame we have to lock people out and cannot put them on the hill! It won't look fully packed because it's been capped.

 

[Sydney Knight]

There you go logged onto get a GA ticket and sold out. Should have got in earlier as they were still there a few hours a go.

Never been to Belmore but will have to get in early for the game against the sharks in 2 weeks
