2015 Crowd Watch

[undertaker]

In my Mind the Live sunday time slot is now the best in the league.

Not only are Souths getting large FTA exposure every week but they now have a more friendly time slot for crowds.

I expect Souths Ave crowd will be a record this year.

If i am in charge of a club i would want the live Sunday time slot.

I agree that the live Sunday FTA spot will become the premier tv spot (behind the live Friday night match) that home teams will want to play in (sponsorship reasons).

Huge ratings in Sydney for yesterday's Sunday game. Nearly 400k in Sydney, which was unheard in years gone by when the match was delayed. In fact, more than half of that amount was considered a success last year. Second-highest rated program in Sydney behind Nine News (yes, even beating all the other primetime programs). The fact the match finished after 6pm (6:10pm to be exact) was beneficial rather than detrimental for Nine News, hence why I can see the matches being kicking off at 4:15pm rather than 4pm.

Live Sunday football on FTA is definitely here to stay. Still can't believe it took Ch9 until this season to ditch the delayed broadcast. Now, if only they could shift the delayed Friday night match to another timeslot.......

Its on purpose by nine to make sure you miss the start of the seven news

This.

Ch9 weren't upset one-bit that yesterday's match finished past 6pm. The ratings for Nine News in Sydney says it all.

Sunday night timeslot doesn't work for TV or crowds.

It could if it were at 6pm rather than 6:30pm. 6pm ensures the match finishes around 7:45-50pm. You could have a triple header on Sunday: 2pm (Fox), 4pm (Ch9), 6pm (Fox)

This would be a good timeslot if a Perth NRL franchise is admitted into the comp.

Souths should average 25k+ this season coming off a premiership and on a win streak. It's time for the 'pride of the league' to match the hype and success attendance wise instead of being the pride of empty ANZ stadium.

Man this would be a cracker in front of 25k... sigh

Man this would be a cracker in front of 25k... sigh

The final with these 2 teams didn't even get 25k. So pretty sure this was never going to get near it.

Mate whats even more impressive is that the games atm on sunday are delayed into QLD.

Just wait till QLD have the game live in a phew weeks, should get over 1million on a sunday which is a great result.

Just proves what we have all been saying all these years, people running 9 are dinosaurs and take to long to change with the times.

I don't expect a crowd of 10,000 plus to be announced tonight.

 

[Usain Bolt]

But they got new big screens!

Bit hard to get from Penrith to your seat in Moore Park by 7:00pm.

But just think how many Panther fans must work in the city. But the problem then is getting home at a reasonable hour.

 

[Son of Minto]

Crowd is 10,735

 

[elbusto]

131000 for the round I think

I would say alot more would work in the western suburbs.

The M4 was completely f**ked this afternoon after a truck roll over

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Sad part is 11k is par. Between Sunday 4.21 pm 6.30pm and Monday 7pm could they male it any harder to get to a game.

If you have young kids u basically can't go to football anymore

No game finished before 6.10pm last weekend

 

[yobbo84]

Disgraceful effort by Roosters fans against a top 4 side. Allianz is the perfect venue for MNF.

 

[Spanner in the works]

Never really liked Monday night games.

 

[DC_fan]

131000 for the round I think

If you are correct it will be the largest R3 total since 2010.

 

[BlueandGold]

For a Monday night that's a pass imo. We will see smaller crowds on monday then tonight's crowd.

So whose fault this week is it that souffs failed to draw a crowd anywhere near their alleged membership base number?

We can?t be to critical of the titans in this case, it was absolutely pouring down rain all day.

There must been a 'Hollywood celebrities, pets and players dead relatives party' on for souffs fans
