Round one vs Rabbits was 34c with 87 humidity still at 9pm with a feel temp of 38c. Mix that with the crowds and firework smoke.

Round three vs Cowboys was 33c with similar humidity and just as bad. There were seemingly NO children at this game.

Extreme heat is just as bad as extreme cold. If the extreme heat is deemed not to have an effect on the Broncos crowd because we in Brisbane are used to the putrid summers, then Canberra cant use the extreme cold as an excuse. Theres pretty much a 50/50 swing of peoples weather preferences.

30 degrees isn't extreme heat.

Again why are there more outdoor events during summer ?
Humans prefer the warmth to the cold. It's literally mind boggling anyone could argue differently.

24C - top range of comfort
21C - recommended living room temperature
Less than 20C - death risk begins
18C - recommended bedroom temperature
16C - resistance to respiratory diseases weakened
12C - more than two hours at this temperature raises blood pressure and increases heart attack and stroke risk
5C - Significant risk of hypothermia

Argh. Seriously. 34 degrees with huge humidity (feels like 38) is unbearable. You used a UK WEATHER LINK. hahhahahahaha.

Look at this link

on page one:

8 people prefer cold
2 prefer hot
1 prefers "mild"

So, I guess your mind is officially broken!



This link shows:
http://wdyt.com.au/polls/hot-or-cold-weather/?comment_page=2
23.2% prefer hot
19.06% prefer cold
56.6% in between.

Don't be so subjective.

Problem is we are working from such a low baseline. 30k avg, 10k dont go because it's cold, hot, mildly warm not such a bad look. 12k avg and 5k don't show and it makes the game look like it has as much interest as soccer or netball.

I am still not sure if the NRL and clubs are just not giving the fans what they want/need to go to games or if the NRL is just not that popular as we like to think and this is the fanbase we have?

:lol: You reckon?

One end of the ground is completely empty & the other end about 5% full.

:lol:

One end is now always closed and the 5% full side is where all the "allocation exhausted" GA bays are meant to be, along with the Manly support bay.

It's just that RL is like the most casually viewed sport in the country

Millions of people are happy to chuck in on a Friday night and sit and watch. But will never even think about actually going to a game
