2018 Crowd Watch

[Raiderdave]

Roosters have few fans.

but theres 2 teams playing & the Roosters could certainly muster 15K fans by themselves
5K stadium members & at least 10K dragons fans

that's 30K
& that's barely acceptable when you think about it
tickets to this game should be as rare as hens teeth given all the factors around it

but alas
this is Sydney & don't ever underestimate Sydney to disappoint when it comes to crowds certainly where the NRL is concerned

if its 20K then the shitbag titans in a near nothing game nearly got it with over 15K
that's utterly pathetic from the fans of these 2 Sydney sides

 

[thorson1987]

Plenty of Warriors fans on the Gold Coast?

 

[Raiderdave]

20 minutes before kickoff & the crowd is about 10 to 12K atm
so looks like the jurnos won't be far off

I think kids should always be free on a sunday arvo and at all regular season games at ANZ/SFS but if there was ever a day to do it as a one off, today was it.

 

[papabear]

one day people will appreciate that easts and manly have the smallest game attending fan base in the comp.

as businesses they are very successful but if people in eastern sydney or the northern beaches do not enjoy attending nrl games as much as other places why base the team out of there?

Demographics are always changing ..

I'm sure bankstown area in the 1950s looked different to the 1990s

But the bulldogs adapted

 

[dangerousdave]

I see
so
this diaspora of supporters would have in some instances , driven past ANZ to get to Leichardt
but
won't go to ANZ

yeah , that's not crazy is it

You do not understand Sydney or the nostalgia attached to Leichhardt for Balmain supporters.

oh I see
so
their team is only their team at certain venues

yeah , that's a lot less weird

 

[Raiderdave]

its time
start the process

the dismantling of the clutter of teams in Sydney
it'll take 20 years , but Sydneysiders don't seem to want to watch NRL live
so lets find people who do
where ever they are

Appears they don;t want to watch in Canberra either.Adelaide Raiders .

 

[Raiderdave]

we're not in Sydney
no problem down here dummy , if we were in the top 4 playing another top 4 opponent on a sunday afternoon with the sun blazing in 23C conditions
GIO would have had not one seat to spare

It doesn't even cost the clubs, and it means a parent pays to tag along. Too difficult for the NRL.

Roosters have hit 15k only twice this year at home. No one seems to care.

 

[insert.pause]

Crap crowd

Not surprising really, it was a roosters home game in a week where the news has been dominated by a contrived referees crisis.
