2018 Crowd Watch

[carcharias]

It’s a shame we couldn’t get 17k sharks fans to get off their sofas.

17k
Same time slot?
Worse
Ha
Shit house

There’d have to be more storm fans closer to that ground than Cronulla or sharks are to the SFS

 

[carcharias]

Not going to happen, well maybe given chambers will be back! Not meltdown but pssed big time. That’s the beauty of sport great to have a team to dislike and see as a rival. Makes winning sweeter and losing harder.

Um
Perth aren’t playing

 

[Suitman]

I wonder if there is any other Sydney sports club outside the nrl ones who would only get 10k turning out for a finals game?

GWS don't even get 10 000.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

any chance Todd drops free tickets in to every meth clinic from Redfern to Waterloo? should boost numbers

 

[taipan]

Stop the hyperbole, no one is saying the crowd should have sold out, 25k ish would have been respectable, under 20k is sht house. If those clubs really only have 10k and 9k fans who give a sht enough about them to turn out for a sudden death finals game then expect a whinge.

Your recorded history suggests, you'd whinge regardless.
Um !! the respective clubs would have filled their local stadiums, with just about all locals and get 19-20,000.And many families involved.So your 10,000 argument's dribble.
There were bugger all families there last night.

I can't understand they are not played on a Saturday/Sunday night/afternoon,and Sunday afternoon.
Also can't understand the NRL,not allocating the stadium to the higher positioned team.

Who would'a thought you disliked Cronulla.I mean you keep it such a well hidden secret here.
Anyway Cam Smith says hi, he's hoping his reffing, will be up to his usual high standard.

 

[Perth Red]

GWS don't even get 10 000.

For a finals game? And the most disinterested sports team in the city, that’s your bench mark for nrl clubs? Lol

 

[Perth Red]

We can obviously thank the tv deal for that. Another stupid element of it
Saturday night and Sunday afternoon are clearly the obvious best times but nrl manages to f**k up again, but ch9 get 100k more viewers so all good.

Between cams reffing and gallens grub it should be a claasic! I think dislike is a bit mild description of my feelings about cronulla

 

[M2D2]

Bloke on tv commentating jets and panthers just said should have been 55k

Ha

How many do you think on a Friday night at a ground nowhere near where either team fans come from?

He said it should be 55k TONIGHT. Not last night.

 

[TheFrog]

I can't understand they are not played on a Saturday/Sunday night/afternoon,and Sunday afternoon.

That's easy. The sport is beholden to TV.

 

[carcharias]

He said it should be 55k TONIGHT. Not last night.

He said both
Said tonight and then said it about last night as well.

 

[M2D2]

He said both
Said tonight and then said it about last night as well.

No. He didnt. He said last night was bad, not that 55k should be there as you cant fit 55k into SFS.
You were right about the usual suspects having a go the attendance last night in here though.

 

[TheFrog]

(~40km+ away for Penrith)

...and the rest. 69km from Panthers to Allianz via M4 according to Google maps. Likely to take ages to get from Strathfield to Moore Park. If you live at Glenmore Park or Jordan Springs you're looking at 80km each way with big traffic.

You won't have to worry about Gal,I doubt he''ll be there.
We'll also have to deal with crusher Chambers and his regular use of grubbery.

That's good to know, it makes any win over the Storm and getting under your skin, even more enjoyable.

 

[carcharias]

No. He didnt. He said last night was bad, not that 55k should be there as you cant fit 55k into SFS.

Oh
Ok
I thought he was on about last night

Anyway

Agree.So let the home teams have the early semis,inseatd of a central venue, miles away.Give families an opportunity to get there in numbers.

 

[El Diablo]

perth red will be in meltdown next friday if cronulla beat melbourne

he's in permanent meltdown just like all whinging poms

 

[Suitman]

No. You asked a question and I answered it.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Just hold all finals at WSS forever from now on

Surely it can sell out

And the tv numbers will be good ..

f**k off the stadium upgrades..
