2017 Crowd Watch

That's good innovation from the chooks, I like how they've taken a decent drawing match up to Gosford rather than say the Titans, Raiders, Warriors. Showing more respect to the people of Gosford.

I'd much rather we took an out of town game tbh. If the people of Gosford are so flush with NRL games they can be picky then they can f**k off, let Manly have them.

so the ground record at the sharks is like 22k but we cant actually fit that many in any more given the southern stand.
I reckon we will get 19k and its gonna be crammed as f**k on the hills.

there is no way in hell anyone will be able to get a beer and see any of the game.
so get your drinking in early at the leagues or at another venue.


for what its worth you can only buy general admission.
whatever that means on the ticketek "allocation exhausted etc."

awesome effort sharks fans
you only get to see the boys running out as premiers for the first time live ...... once !!
its a must see event
it appears sharks fans are treating as such

The NRL seems to be all over the place and rather messy ( and thats not just the awful yearly changes they butcher the jerseys too ), but you got 9's which crowds are dropping, WCC which the fanfare in the UK was so low level, All Stars which can't sell out, Charity Shield which no one cares about and trials being played in Sydney when really the NRL trials gospel should have all games in none NRL areas.

Hard to build up any fan fare when Storm and 5 other top 8 clubs refused to go leading to series being cut short by a game.
The feeling was Broncos only went as a favour to Wayne's new employer.

You got 2 games wrong. It's Penrith v Dragons and warriors v Newcastle..

Is this with wet weather expected? Cos 8k for a bulldogs game seems a little low..

Forecast looks terrible for Sydney. Again the rain could ruin the crowd average this season.

 

[Clifferd]

Actually, checked the radar and what do you know? Rain expected in Sydney right in time for the start of the NRL season

So the Sydney predictions might have some merit atleast

 

[Emu01]

Looks pretty grim at this stage unfortunately.

 

[Perth Red]

Haha let the excuses begin......

 

[umina panther]

Thank f**k this deadshit still doesn't have a team

 

[Clifferd]

How the f**k isn't that a valid excuse for not turning up? It could be torrential rain for all you know

You do realise 80% of those grounds have like no cover either

 

[Emu01]

Haha let the excuses begin......

I'm not making excuses Perth. I was just letting everyone know the weather could ruin attendance this weekend..

I swear in the last 3 years nearly every game I have gone to in Sydney it's either rained or forecasted rain or showers.

I'm still going to attend a game in round 1.

You're still yet to convince me you don't hate this game. You've barely bothered to consult a draw to know which teams are even playing LOL

The radar tells you what the intensity of rain has been for the past 36 minutes and where it is falling (6 images at 6 minutes intervals).
Not what is going to fall in 7 days time.
