Pax 25830 for tonight.


If we add Alliance members then looks to be over 30k bare minimum. 35k would be nice.
28k is appaling for a prelim in Sydney on a Saturday night I'm sorry despite the opposition.

My mate who went there said there was a definite 50/50 split meaning half Roosters the rest Cowboys/neutrals cheering on the cowboys. They have no support despite being successful for 5+ years

If it was any of Tigers, Bulldogs, Saints or Eels vs Cowboys they would've easily sold out last night.

Your mate is special.

I went to the game, easy 75% chooks fans with 25% neutrals and Cowboys fans.

Tha AFL are happily continuing with family friendly timing for their major games and the code is more prevalent and little kids are more aware of it than decades gone by. Wonder why? You underestimate the intitial experiences of young children to a game/sport . I know my first experience was watching a grandfinal at 3pm. I liked the jumper of one of the teams playing and became a lifelong fan. In fact trialled at the club when I was a young footballer.

continuing ?
they'll be changing it as early as next year to a twighlight start , why ?
because it provides a better spectacle & experience for everyone both on TV & live
so much for that argument lol

Yeah have to agree, the Eastern bays had 2 bays of Cowboys supporters and the rest were Roosters on that side. Members was chock a block with 90% Roosters up there, a few Cowboys and a handful of Manly and Parra supporters, couldn't see what the lower level on the Western side was like though. The really disappointing thing though was the whole upper level of the Eastern side was empty apart from a few of those horrible open air corporate boxes.

Twilight is what the NRL should have now! The younger ones can still see it! 8pm at night is not kid friendly especially the kindie kids. First impressions count and the AFL are getting in first!

f**k off and follow flogball then

El Diablo. Im amazed at you. Thought you were one of the good guys! What I'm stating is very real and unless rugby league people start to realise the current mistakes being made then the game will continue its dowhill trek.

oh wot a load of tripe
its a 7pm kickoff , second its daylight saving , so technically 6pm
theyre advocating a 5.30pm start

theres no F'ing difference except our game goes for a lot less time so more likely kids who start watching our GF will still be there at the end & less likely to be watching the fumbling one

so what was it you were saying again ?

I might add the AFL will gladly have you believe that they are after a later grandfinal but know the advantage they are getting with a family friendly time. They are well organised and are fooling nuffies like you constantly.
