2018 Crowd Watch

[SLRBRONCOS]

Widdop out will keep saints supporters away imo, 35k max.

I was really shocked how little Saints fans there were at Suncorp today...! I bet many who stayed at home wished they came.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Maybe, 40k at ANZ.

Should be 50k, but a wish for 60k?

Surely Bunnies have 30k that will show and Dragons have 20k?

 

[Timmah]

Twice in the last decade....like I said shocked. Hopefully their fans turn up but I can’t see 60,000. Happy to be proven wrong though.

LOL so 60,000 is the marker now?

Keep moving the goalposts champ

September Friday, September 21

NRLW: Brisbane Broncos v New Zealand Warriors, AAMI Park, 5.15pm EST
Preliminary final: Melbourne Storm v Winner semi-final 1, AAMI Park, 7.40pm EST

So I found out this game is played on the same night as the AFL in Melbourne.

I'm concerned this game wont get 20,000 but hope I'm wrong.

Where is the AFL game announced?

 

[JamesRustle]

As long as the Rorters are fair with seating and as long as we can have say 40-45 percent of the crowd.

... as long as you qualify

Surely not. 2 points away from 1st place and thrashed the broncos in week 1. They're now up against one of their old rivals in a knockout playoff. 1 play maker being out shouldn't be enough to impact the crowd.

afl.com.au is my best guess.

But yes, Richmond's prelim will run at the same time as the Storm - Friday 7:50pm

 

[Valheru]

Well then I don’t expect it to be a sell out as you don’t have 30k members...

The Bunnies/Dragons seats will all be gonski to ticketed members of either club in just over 5 minutes I reckon.

Our last 2 home prelims drew 28k and 38k against cowboys and knights.

Why on earth would you think a prelim against souths/dragons wouldn't go close to the full 45k?

 

[Chook Norris]

Predicting:
- 21k Sharks vs Panthers @Allianz
- 40k Souths vs Dragons @ANZ

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Last bunnies v roosters prelim at ANZ was 51k or so wasn’t it? A sold out Allianz could look and sound better?

If the seats they allocate you guys aren’t filled by your members.

All the Mary haters and ones verbally abusing their mob and throwing things at em at Kogarah Oval will now be back on the bandwagon.....

59k for the Roosters v Bunnies in round 26, 2013. Both team were going for the minor premiership.

So the potential for 60k plus is there at ANZ, but a packed Allianz (death trap) for one last time would be awesome.

I don't think they were bandwagoners, I think they were diehards who were rightfully pissed at multiple peahearted efforts... hopefully the team saw how much they had let everyone down and used it to smash the Broncos today... hopefully they have some more to draw on next week.

60,000 was the number provided in the post I originally responded too and I said I’d be shocked if they got that.

 

[big hit!]

afl.com.au is my best guess.

Why aren't Roosters on Friday night? Minor premier and won their Week 1 final. They should have the first game in week 3 to potentially give them the longer break advantage if they win

Sometimes in Sydney these event just catch fire ..

Tigers v StGeorge 72,000 game didn't really make sense either ..

Depends how big a team's bandwagon/casual base is. Tigers and Parra have heaps of those

I can't see Souths vs Dragons getting 60
