2018 Crowd Watch

Explains the Roosters poor crowds the last 2 decades.

id doubt it

Looked much more than that. Perhaps some beancounter influence tonight? It seemed most parts of the ground were fairly full. Puzzling!

Crowds at night games, especially at suburban grounds, are notoriously difficult to judge. I think you will find most people over estimate the size of crowds at these games.

It looked a very healthy crowd on tv anyway! Puzzling?

 

[OldPanther]

theyre kidding
thats as silly as that crowd at penrith last week

but for the opposite reason
there had to be 15 or 16K

it looked quite impressive

Well you were wrong about the Penrith game.

Gee the Warriors could get well above 20,000 - upper grandstands both sides are nearly sold out, bottom grandstands above 50%. Hopefully with a big walk up in the Southern stand could see a great crowd.

Hopefully the weather holds out and they get a good walk up. They've done a really good job with promoting this $15 ticket offer and their St Patrick's Day game day theme on the back of a good win last week.

 

[Clifferd]

Good stuff by the warriors. Hopefully an entertaining win can convert those into regulars

 

[LineBall]

Also, if the NRL was smart, they should try and play as many Warriors games as possible in daylight hours during Winter. 1 pm local time would be ideal.

About 4 single seats left for broncos cowboys.

 

[Burns]

That’s great for Penrith, push 20,000 again?

Looks like it will definitely push around that mark. So we've got two good crowds with the Warriors a good possibility.

Seems everyone is getting hyped about the season this year.

I’m confused, are we over or understating our crowd numbers. Seems to depend on the argument being made. Anyway. Just got to Fox not many people around. The amwarky Friday works well for me but suspect I’m the minority

West stand was full and hills were too. People moved under cover as much as they could with the heat. Out the back was packed like sardines. The ground ran out of everything to drink as well.

You didn't see the crowd. Same game played in cooler temps and the crowd is hiding in the shade. Hopefully tomorrow being 5:30 kick off helps a bit. Problem is the Eastern side gets smashed. I bought my membership around that specific fact.

Yes, it is. Use Pythagoras theorem.

Stands start from the edge of the ground.

Specs for ground are 68m wide and 3m for minimum around. So from the centre of ground to sideline is 37m.

Looking at the view to the start of the ground where the stand starts say we go 25m meters back and raise 10m gives an actual distance of spectator to the start of grandstand 26.93m.

For up 25 then back 10m for same result of 26.93m to the start of the ground.

So we have the respective distances back and up for each type now we add the distance to the centre of the ground from the start of the stand, which is 37m.

For the 25m horixontal the vertical stays at 10m and the horizontal becomes 25+ 26.93=51.93 and the spectator distance is 52.89.

For the 25m up the horizontal distance becomes 47m and the vertical remains at 25m and the spectator viewing is 48m.

Call me a nerd, I don't care, but I f**king love math

gee i hope fans are still filing in at Allianz
there wouldn't be 10K there atm
