2018 Crowd Watch

[OldPanther]

So what are predictions for tonight? I'm going with 12K, really just hoping we avoid the embarrassment of a sub 10K crowd to kick off the season. Who knows maybe the game will actually surprise us.



Will look great on TV. Glad that the off season issues haven't turned off panthers fans.

Funny enough we had something like a 50% increase in members this off season compared to last. I don't remember the exact numbers.

Weather predictions for Tvl are looking a lot better for tomorrow than first expected. Fingers crossed for 22-24k.

As usual, there are still heaps of seats available in the Northern Terrace

I was meaning the western grand stand mainly single seats only left.

 

[Valheru]

This argument is always cute

How many did they average minus the ANZAC test plus games in Adelaide and Central Coast

But congrats, with a successful side like them that should be the standard.

What does it matter?

No one ever wants to take the ANZAC figure off of St George when they host it, like this year.

Anyways, regarding this week, roosters fans generally travel pretty well to ANZ.

Hope so. Driving up from Mack town with some mates.

ANZAC test? Club sides don't play Test matches last time I looked.

Secondly why do we have to exclude the Anzac Day game, Adelaide and the Central Coast? They were home games. If that is your logic, let's look at the Wests Tigers home attendance averages minus: the Round 20 game against the Eels at Stadium Australia; the Round 8 game against the Bulldogs; and Round 5 game against the Dragons at Stadium Australia, and see how that looks. Your reasoning on this part is specious to say the least.

Nice. Should be a cracker mate.

All my family are going and absolutley giving it to me deluxe that I’m not coming home for a milestone game like that one. I chucked some coin down instead for the signed frame thing the club has put out for the game... I hate when work gets in the way of my football.....

I'd like to think 12-13k for tonight.

Overall

Dragons v Broncos - 12.5k
Knights v Manly - 24k
Cowboys v Sharks - 21k
WT v Roosters - 20k
Double Header - 37k*
Panthers v Eels - 20.5k
Titans v Raiders - 9k

* It will be an accurate crowd but y'all will claim its not despite people coming and going throughout the evening.

Opening the season to a half empty stadium....The sport is run by absolute muppets

I think it’s brilliant the Roosters are taking games out of their area and filling up stadiums elsewhere.

And although on records it shows 20k at Adelaide and Central Coast, harsh reality is if those games were played Allianz the Melbourne game probably gets sub 10k and Cronulla probably no more than 12k

My point is there’s quite a few variables when taking into account the average home attendances but hey on record it doesn’t matter

Also the Tigers home games are still in Wests Tigers catchment areas, unlike the Roosters Adelaide and CC ones

I actually think Newcastle should’ve opened the season. Nobody likes Thursday’s but I reckon they could have cracked 25k tonight even so

This is how we league!

It should look good on tv that’s all they care about.

Had 11k this time last year. 16.5k now

 

[cleary89]

Got a ticket today. Pax 14,3xx.

Does pax still mean anything?

 

[Saint Doc]

It does, but members and corporates would be included in that.

So PAX 14,300, but if 1000 members and 500 corporates don’t turn up because Thursday, traffic, blah blah, then 12-13k sounds right

How good is it. Hope our crowd numbers stay up.

Since the merge west’s have averaged 15000, easts 16000, And with two supporter bases, tigers still struggle to get the best crowd in Sydney, thank f**k for the West’s side in the merger, or there would be no team for you to be bitter about all the time.

That literally made no sense

Might need to settle on the cans mate. Bit early

Round 1 and 'heartland' no excuses for poor crowds in the opening rounds.
