2018 Crowd Watch

[8Ball]

I’m actually going to the double header
That’ll kill me leaving the shire

 

[carcharias]

Don’t laugh
Last I left I came home with a premiership

 

[Draft]

The Warriors have slashed their ticket prices to their first home game against the Titans, making all tickets just $15, with $5 of that being donated to the Red Cross Cyclone Gita appeal. Hopefully should bring in a decent crowd.

Looks more like 11-12k on tv

It’s filled up. At kick off it looked significantly smaller than a standard storm game

Can't agree, looks solid.

Maybe I'm too used to it being half-full during the A-League season

 

[azza29]

19,062 in Melbourne. Respectable turnout.

 

[Diesel]

19k, all paying for their ticket, unlike that AFL shit across town

Let's hope.

Even 15k is great at aami. I found the ends behind the sticks where better than the best seats for both atmosphere and weather protection

I was in the front row on the side just past the deadball line. Was great in the 1st half, 2nd half though majority of the action was the other end.

Gets pretty loud in there too, can only imagine how loud it is when full.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Reckon it will hit 13kish. I'm keen for it but haven't seen much promo

Got 20

 

[Perth Red]

Good result @$40ticket avg stallion!

? Don't think you get it PR. I'm certainly relieved it got over 19000. I was advocating $20 tickets for a more impressive showing of the code. 31000 @ $20 would be a chance. Certainly not the staggered pricing that had many adult tickets at $65 or more in other categories. The lowest ticket price was for kids ages up till 12years at $15. A full house is a better look than a 2/3rds full house for overall perception of the code as a popular progressive entity. Remembering you squeemishingly tried to justify the 40000 that turned up to an overpriced world cup final in a 52500 stadium. That is and was not a good look for the code going forward. The full capacity look now brings further interest and respect of the code into the future. The positive perception brings in junior interest and casual fan interest. Something you don't factor in when you advocate high priced tickets for a code aiming to increase its reach and profile.

good crowd loved how the Leeds fans were singing.. Hopefully the TV ratings will be good and give the WCC a leg up

 

[Raiderdave]

Update

It was 16029
Not 19062

 

[Foreign Legion]

just realised that Leeds got beaten by the Cowboys with the same score in 2016

 

[carcharias]

It was a good pre season game to watch on tv.
It’s a shame the stinking poms got shafted with the 2 refs before and during the game though.

Bullshit penalties and forward passes turned into points for the storm directly after.

The poor bastards had their backs against the wall enough without that shit.
Cuthbertson for god sake!

To watch that sly f**ker Cameron Smith celebrating like he’d won a final in a real sport made me sick.
So sick I had to rewatch his 2016 grand final losers speech to make me feel better.

That there would be enough to turn poms off coming back for a WCC in future.

I think the people in charge are largely clueless at most things to do with the actual game and fans perspective.

Rip em off Then piss em off

Says who....I was at the game and 19,062 was put up on the screen.

Great atmosphere too, plenty of Leeds supporters about which added to the occasion.

Let's not argue IMO a decent crowd.

Let's face it, the Greater Western Gnats get 1/3 that number ,and call it a full house.
