2016 Crowd Watch

[Sharkman05]

I emailed the NRL they didn't care.

Have a go at buying tickets yourselves, am I wrong in thinking that it is asking you for a code to proceed?

I read it that you must have one of the codes shown to do so.

I would think some people who don't buy tickets very often using ticketek or older people would just give up?

 

[Timmah]

That's some awful comprehension then.

From 10:20 this morning pax # 30002 for Friday.

Top effort Sharks fans.

 

[Sharkman05]

Try buying your tickets using your phone or NRL app and you will see what I mean.

Amateur hour.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Hopefully we'll get above 30,000 or even above 35,000.

 

[Raiderdave]

Wait, so fans don't turn up to preliminary finals anymore?

Have I imagined the last decade or what?

And the idiot savant strikes again.
You said the Raiders don't draw crowds in Sydney.
Wot has that got to do with preliminary finals not involving them ? Lol

So many lols

 

[Timmah]

You said the Raiders don't draw crowds in Sydney.

You call me an 'idiot savant' then completely fabricate something random? Good work Dave.

 

[Raiderdave]

You tried to compare eras a quarter of a century apart involving the Raiders

Then tried to compare recent preliminary finals crowds in Sydney that have never involved them

You're right
Calling you an idiot savant is disrespectful to idiot savants ...

 

[Timmah]

With good reason Dave, preliminary finals are events regardless of who's taking the field. It was the case in the early 90s and still is. The games attract neutrals, it's a fact. People get excited at this time of year because the footy is of a higher quality.

If you want to ignore it for a roundabout argument you can't let go of, be my guest.

 

[Clifferd]

A pass for tomorrow would be 35k+ and looks like ticket sales are on track for that

Hahahahahahaha

Yeah sure they are
A half empty SFS for a Raiders v Cowboys prelim would have been

Some

Event eh?
What a,solid policy the NRL have
The LOLs just keep coming

Given that many preliminary finals featuring two teams from Sydney have gone 60k+ for a preliminary, the Sharks will show their comparable support to some of the 'big clubs' if they pull 30k+ tomorrow. Realistically the Cowboys won't be contributing much to the crowd.

if 12000 western bulldogs fans are flying to sydney... surely a few NQs would come down.. surely..

Id say that Pax doesnt include members, as SFS members can just walk in,

So 35k looks good,, nice work sharks fans

They would be saving their money for a very possible trip there in just over a weeks time. I don't blame tbh

Would the Bulldogs fans also need to fly back up the next week if they made the grand final?

f**king dumb comparison but not surprised it came from you.

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

Sharks first GF prelim in a while, chance to be in a GF in a unified competition in a long time. No excuses for a a near sell-out aleast considering the crowds the Swans get for finals games no excuse for a heartland team to get as big as finals crowd as the Swans.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Well the NRL will consider home prelims for Canberra and Newcastle.

Won't hold my breath but that's better than a flat-out "No"
