2016 Crowd Watch

12k... They are pretty loud il give them that

just over 12k the commentators just said. Does sound a little louder than that too. I give them that too

For the actual crowd, its alright for a Thursday night game. Up from the 9,600 at Kogarah last Thursday. But for a game that's between Souths and the Dragons, it is poor. Shouldn't have been on a Thursday night.


Just to clarify guys. At Souths home games, they put a muffled microphone in or near the burrow then play it all game through the P.A. system. I'd be embarrassed but that's just me.

Agreed SGD Thursday sucks. 12k last night between 2 'big' Sydney clubs is pretty unacceptable.

Not to the NRL it isn't. They are happy to screw the fans who want to get out and take the kids along to support their clubs. We become more like strictly dancing or The Voice every TV deal. A TV product not a real sport.

You've changed your tune. Glad you've seen the light.

First of all I'm not saying that isn't true but is it actually true? I sit in the burrow so maybe I don't hear the PA because I'm hearing it 'live'. I have heard others say it but assumed it was shit.

It was a shit attendance but the scheduling has a lot to answer for. I think attending games is a habit for a lot of people but our last weekend game was 20th March and we advent got another weekend game in Sydney scheduled this year so its hard to get in the habit. You have to admit thats a pretty poor effort for families and people who have to battle Sydney traffic after work etc.
This isn't a complaint from me as I finish at 3 everyday and it leaves me with a free weekend so it pretty much suits me but not everyones that lucky.

Ahhh:sarcasm:
It can't be broken... I explained this a few pages back already

To you :?.. I think ..when you asked the same question then.
The record for Townsville was set at over 30,000 in 1997

The ground holds 26500 these days
Record won't be broken
Because it can't be :crazy:

Crowd looks amazing though... Cool to think that 1/8 of the population of Townsville is at that game (yes I know they aren't all from Townsville) but I'm just gonna pretend they all are

You are kidding yourself 'oh lord of the ticketek' if you think otherwise.

Haha some weeks in Townsville you sit around that figure.

When we destroyed you early last year there was more like four. This year at Suncorp we sold basically the entire levels three and five with "derby deal" memberships. Nice try.
