2018 Crowd Watch

[Billythekid]

Storm Tigers: 18,189

Pretty good crowd IMO. Was hoping for higher with the no AFL and the Slater factor but not too bad.

So I'm the end no games made 20K, goes to show the difference between expectations and reality.

For mine, R2 (completely uneducated guesses lol):

Sharks v Dragons 13k 13,517
Roosters v Bulldogs 12k 12,226
Broncos v Cowboys 41k 46,080
Warriors v Titans 15k 14,132
Panthers v Souths 14k 15,995
Storm v Tigers 19k 18,189
Manly v Eels 15k
Raiders v Knights 10k

Not a bad stab in the dark I reckon

Gee I really thought there were more at the Melbourne match, it looked awesome on TV, not too many gaps at all to be seen. I was guessing more around 25k. I guess the major gaps must have been on the camera side.

Storm crowds always look better than they are, one of the great things about that stadium actually. I always slash a few thousand off what the crowd looks like and that tends to be close to the mark.

Edit: having said that it does make you wonder where 12K more people would fit in. He stadium was apparently only 60% full but it looked so much more.

The advantage of a well built stadium.

120K so far
Hopefully 25 to 27K today
So another solid round

I don't know whether it's just me but some of the crowds stated seem far less than from general observation
eg Sharks v Dragons seem more like 15-16,000 yet shown as 13,500
Ditto Warriors and Storm games.
I'm also liking the fact the Dragons and Tigers keep winning and the eels finally get of their backsides,,then watch the Sydney crowds boyos.
Tis unpredictable season so far, gives the elixir of life the code needs.

Now if we can just send the 6pm timeslot to Russia for Putin to nuke or puke ,we are laughing.

Dogs v Panthers at anz next Friday at 6pm

And rorters v knights at sfs on Sunday night

Round 3 is a cluster f**k

Oh but nrl can always double count a double header .. again

 

[Panther_Daz]

Doesn't look good for next Friday with two games in Sydney. Showers are forecast from Tuesday and are expected to hang around until at least Saturday.

[Raiderdave]

Melb 15K
ANZ .. eh .. if its wet maybe 10K , maybe 12 if the weather isn't too bad
Campbelltown .. 10K if its wet , 15K if its passable
Canberra 15K ( if we win tonight haha)

Go put your Swans scarf on ya tool

You'd never be counted as one of the crowd for any games
You don't go .
You just bitch on here

 

[OzDragon]

Why are they persisting with Sunday night games? Go with midday or 2pm Sunday instead.

Id think the heat may have something to do with it
35C in Sydney yesterday
40C today
at some point the players need to be looked after over everything else , so as many evening games as possible are required in the heat at the start of the year

Shit time for both games but with the Royal Easter Show starting next Friday maybe they will get a few walk ins from there out at ANZ.
Despite the 6.30 Sunday night game for the Roosters you would think that a lot of people would want to come out and either boo or get a chance to say a proper goodbye to Mitchell Pearce and SKD.

So sydneysiders have a week to prepare for wet weather football.

It's not like its a cyclone or a bushfire. Suck it up soft cocks.

Times have changed! TV coverage hads impacted big time! If ticket prices are reduced and this well publicised that may increase attendances. But yeah I like your comment.
