So no link?

I call BS
Like most of your posts

Can you read? I'll ask for the info at the Knightshop next week. And you will get the information. Do you live in Newcastle? I do. Were you at the ground when 33000 easily fitted in with a few thousand seats on the western side still vacant? No. I was. The capacity is a conservative 33000 on the website. The ground is able to be ugraded to 40000 which has been planned for major events (world cup games etc. )

Wouldn't be too hard for TV to push both games 30mins? on a Friday. At least the early game could be heavily promoted as the family game of the round with major offers and incentives to get the whole family rocking up. No reason a family couldn't be at the game at 6:30pm

Fox 6:30 Ch9 8:15pm KO would work better maybe?

Wouldn't that late game be 7.15 pm qld time ? For first ,5 weeks

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Newcastle spots like the stadium are basically 20minutes drive from most places in the area. Its a better venue and town for this timeslot due to geograghy and easier travelling routes. Unlike Sydney!

I don't get why Newcastle or Canberra or Wollongong etc .. havent jumped on board and just said give us all the 6pm Friday games u can ..

We will have a crack at them ..

It could work in regional stadiums

 

[beave]

The Broncos should be made to have a 6pm home game........

 

[Big Salad]

Crowd for the testimonial match will be interesting given the dreadful weather forecast (25-70mm rain)

 

[beave]

Wonder if Greg Inglis will still fly up for it??......

We don't want anymore then a few
Even tho it's considerably easier to get around Canberra then Sydney
It's still impossible for most people down here to get to a game kicking off at 6pm on a weeknight

Good idea for Newy and Canberra, but half our club is based in Sydney. It's a pretty rotten fixture for us.

 

[Marlins]

No 6pm Game should be played at ANZ or Allianz ever on a weeknight.

Warriors should be given 6
Then the rest spread out between
Newcastle
Wollongong
Canberra
Townsville
Leichart
Central Coast

Nothing salty then a Cowboys fan when it comes to the mighty Broncs

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

@Raiderdave @Stallion consider this your warning gents - continued unncessary name calling will result in action.

Just debate, no need for the rubbish

Yeah.....Dropkick.....Dummy....the kids shouldn't be exposed to that kind of language!

Never said anything about language. Stick to the topic please.

As much as QLDers love a big event I reckon this has missed the mark. Australia's not big on testimonial matches like the UK is (at least not lately) and with the rain I reckon 25-30k is about all you'd imagine.

Anyone know how sales are going for Mudgee?

 

[Big Salad]

Agreed, I thought it was an odd thing to begin with. I was struggling to see it get over 20k. Anything over 15k with this weather will be great (and still a lot more than what the Roar are getting there this season).

The 8:00pm game being pushed back half an hour would finish too late. I got home from the Panthers Vs Manly final last year at 1:30am as it is.

You could overlap them but the TV people wouldn't allow it.

Salty, bahahaha.

I’ll lick the salt off the 2015 Provans Summons trophy to make me feel better. The tears of thousands of Broncos fans sustains me.

 

[Timmah]

Tony Webeck (Fox's QLD reporter) says they were expecting ~27k but with the rain that could be in doubt

 

[insert.pause]

It's absolutely pissing down, happy testimonial greedy pricks!
