Hey Dave You f**kwit you keep commenting on Sydney's weather mate and your completely wrong on the rain last week..

You have tried to argue with people that live right near the ground that said it rained.You said it didn't

Where do you live?? Probably down near Canberra nowhere near Sydney but you are a expert on the rain that fell.

f**k off you should be suspended from this forum.

The comedy of Dave sitting in his glass house pelting giant boulders is great fun to watch.

Fancy having the second worst average in the comp and having the hide to try and smash the team that came 6th in averages... lol

Sharks won the comp but Dave is pretty sure Raiders will get a better crowd at a game yet to be played in a part of the nation notorious for shit weather and shit crowds so suck a fat one premiers.

Makes perfect sense.

Could be epic this year with the Friday 6pm game

Rd 4 Penrith vs Newcastle @ Penrith
Rd 5 Roosters vs Manly @ Allianz
Rd 9 Souths vs Manly @ Allianz
Rd 14 Manly vs Newcastle @ Brookvale
Rd 20 Roosters vs Newacstle @ Allianz

If Belmore last Friday got 8.7k (which there wasn't, as the ground was nowhere near half-full. More about 6-7k), I really hate to think what the crowds could be for those 6pm matches above. Only the absolute RL diehards/fanatics that are not working that day (or who finish work in the CBD well before 4:30pm) will be in attendance, due to the geographic location and limited accessibility to those places via public transportation (Anzac Parade has been a nightmare to get through from afternoon onwards due to peak-hour traffic as a result of light-rail construction). If it rains, sub-5k is definitely on the cards. Crowds for local derbies such as Dragons vs Sharks at Kogarah in Rd 10 are going to suffer, whereas on a Sunday arvo would get close to a sell-out.

In this history of rugby league scheduling in Australia since 1908, this is undoubtedly the worst regular time-slot allocated. Yes, even worse than Monday Night Football.
