Just looked at the couriermail report on the game, 14.4k was their reported crowd figure.

Of course it is
The weather was horrendous in Auckland all week
They easily crack 20K tonight if they had same weather as last week[/QUOTE]

This week was pretty bad but it's Auckland, it's April weather is bound to be shitty. We'll see what they get next week though.

Wow! They must have been counting heads instead of tickets.

That's not to bad considering their form.

Looked legit crowd figure for mine.

We'll have to agree to differ. One of the worst (looking) crowds I can remember, at least in our recent golden run.

I’ve been to the joint for about 130-140 games and the shots from about 20mins in looked a lot better than the ones at kickoff. 14.4k looked on the money mate. Which like you said, isn’t good.

P.S. Apart from those games with obvious excuses - cyclones, Thursday nights against BS opposition etc.

Can't argue with that but I've been probably 50-60 times, my mate and I always play Guess the Crowd and usually get pretty close. Maybe I called it early and then didn't notice the improvement as I drowned in disappointment...

Varying factors? You mean some clubs playing in sht grounds with a small fanbase? Yeh those clubs are going to struggle to actually earn a revenue that justifies them being in the nrl. Better they keep taking the hand outs and play in front of 12k people!

In your pie in the sky world where everything runs seamlessly on your demand, sure.

In the real world, sadly, yes, that's what happens. Get used to it.

After spending most of the game standing in a stairway with my kids I've decided a proper roof is heavily underrated. Started pissing down at the start of both halves in Canberra.

Except we're a million years from all grounds with a roof.

12,328 in a rainy Canberra with cyclonic winds just for good measure
fair dinkum it would have blown a dog off a chain

So, 4k at the SFS?

Yep. We can dream though. It wasn't that long ago that Canberra was close to getting one.

Canberra’s crowds have been much better the past year or so. Whereas in the past if they were 0-4 or it was a rainy night, they would have bottomed out around 8-9000, these days despite those challenges they have 12k attending. It’s a good sign. Especially compared to the brumbies who used to be the hottest ticket in town and who always sold out against the waratahs...nowadays they get 13k vs tahs or finals matches.

I've had a musing glimpse at union whilst channel flicking on occasions. Even these crowds are too big for such a product!
