2017 Crowd Watch

[Suitman]

You sure it's the last 5 pages?
Looked more like 6 to me.

Could have even been more.
My brain went numb reading it.
I was desperately trying to find a post that was relevant which didn't involve teenagers throwing handbags at 6 paces.
I struggled.

To be honest most people are actually discussing the crowd numbers in the crowd thread.
Maybe you just want only crowd numbers - I don't know.
Speaking of
Any game in Sydney today will be small
The weather is horrendous

Arguing over whether a game was at 7.30 or 8 pm isn't discussing crowd numbers. And on and on it went.

Anyway, you're right.
Crowds could be abysmal this weekend in rain affected areas.
The weather has been dreadful and has had a major impact already this season.

Well if in NZ they should've been arguing over what year the game was played in .

Panthers game could be affected
No roosters fans will go
At least kids sport is off - had it even started yet?

Only way to deal with it is / ignore Dave and his Shark mate.

Not having a go at you personally...I'm sure you didn't do the counting.

I'm sorry but I cannot believe there was 11622 people at that game.
There was literally nobody behind the posts
And the stand was easily half empty.

I counted it myself

Did you count them twice just to make sure?

I believe there was 11k there. You only need 5.5k each side to make up that figure.

To all the people who bagged the storm v broncos crowd, it could well be the highest crowd of the weekend.

They close that stand behind the posts to save on the rent that they get raped over.

Platinum and Gold categories sold out at Penrith tonight. Diamond has 2 seats left. Under 100 Silver seats to sell too.

Unfortunately General Admission is going to be a tough sell with persistent rain.

of course!

Must've been 8k behind the cameraman

They should have a big sheet or screen that comes down from the roof to cut off that section from view - sell ad space on the screen.

Lol no
The Cowboys crowd will beat that easily

 

[Burns]

Suns out in Newcastle, might boost walk ups.

Hopefully we get 16,000 today

 

[Clifferd]

Newcastle coming off a good win against a well drawing team

Should push 18k tbh

 

[T-Boon]

yep it is clearing up in Newy. People have been indoors for a week so I sense a good crowd.

The nrl are sht, it's getting to the stage were any club in any time slot, except broncos, are getting sht crowds. That tells me this problem is much much bigger than just ko time, club playing or venue being played at and the nrl is at fault for totally mismanaging fan engagement and interest in the completion. We have had bucket full self money since 2012 and this is The Result? Please!

I honestly believe bullshit like the Taumalolo shoulder charge suspension dulls peoples enthusiasm for the game. Not to mention the shit timeslots, overpriced tickets, etc.
They can talk TV ratings all they want but sitting on your arse watching TV isn't fan engagement. Someone making the effort to get out of the house and pay for a ticket is the real indicator, and it has been (at best) stagnant for close to a decade.
