2018 Crowd Watch

[DC_fan]

Three games and just over 29,000 fans in attendance. I suspect the games today should pull some reasonable crowds. If they don’t we may struggle to reach 100,000 for the round.

Need around 37,000 to attend the two games today, otherwise the round falls under the magic 100,000 mark.

Would take a bumper Newcastle crowd and a decent Wests Tigers one. While Newcastle could deliver 20k I'm not confident Campbelltown will break 13-15k

Yeah no hope. Newcastle would have to get 25k

I predict Knights to get 23k.

Is anyone going to the womens state of origin at NSO on Friday night?
What sort of crowd will that get?

While it is a sunny day here in Sydney, it is extremely windy and cold. I don’t see West’s game pulling much of a crowd.

Not sure what the weather is like in Newcastle, but I would like to think they will get a good crowd

He tweeted about the game he was at. Pretty f**king obvious

He'll have to be careful which games he goes to, those rose-colored glasses will struggle.

A mate and I are flying down for our annual Origin road trip taking in this one and the Pacific Tests at Campbelltown. Bring it on but I fear others won't be as keen.

Still, another step on the path of women's footy, good to see.

Yeah nobody from Sydney will go because North Sydney is too far from everywhere. They would have been better off having the game in Newcastle, Would have gotten 15k.

Looks a solid crowd in Newy. Has to be 20k+

The sun on the grandstand made the crowd look bigger lol.

I got an email from the NRL that seems to say we get in free with our Origin tickets. I say seems, the link didn't enlighten me and it wasn't clear but best guess is that's the offer.

Not a great crowd in Newy but with how the teams running and how cold the weather is I think that's ok.

Overall it's been a terrible weekend for crowds.

I can understand the comment maybe about how Newcastle are performing but the cold?
It was full sunshine and a bit windy.
f**kers need to put an extra jumper or jacket on.

Again
You guys dont know what cold is
A top of 5c today in Canberra

With a wind chill of zero
It was horrendous

7.4 degrees max actually, but your point still remains.

The cold shouldn't have been used as an excuse for today's crowd in Newcastle. It's winter ffs!

People might be saving their pennies for origin and the tests next week
