2019 Crowd Watch

[Shark62]

I think you’ll find I’ve commented on the crowd a few times.
I was there , saw it first hand.
Got photos to prove it.

And the comment I made which you took umbrage too was about all 4 crowds this weekend.

Didn't mention you sport.

Obviously your personal issue is paranoia.

So what? I can’t help you with that. It’s your problem. Now let’s get back to crowds.

Speaking of bans and also going off topic the hot women thread has been banned from the firkin fun forum. Devastated!

People stop going to NRL games when their team is not winning because it is all about winning. The game stopped caring much about how entertaining it was as a sport a long time ago (when Bellamy took over the game).

But Bellamy is all about winning.

And yes you're right winning is everything.

7683 at Cronulla. Dismal.

Yep and so was the weather.Stands with cover full,Burns stand without cover nowhere near so and the seating around the grounds and hill naturally sparse.Thank goodness for the 7,000 Storm supporters there.

Terrible but sadly not unusual crowds this weekend, come on eels and dragons fans save the nrl blushes.

At least you got that right.

Was raining here yesterday morning, 47k turned out for afl game. Seems it’s mostly rugby league fans afraid of the rain?

But that’s exactly the problem with suburban grounds. If the weather is perfect and it’s played during the day you can get a good crowd and the atmosphere is awesome. Throw in even a touch of bad weather and the crowds collapse. Due to the limited capacity the big crowds can’t really make up for the small ones either.

Not sure why the amount of away support keeps getting brought up. That’s the amount of away support that teams like Melbourne, Canberra and NZ get every game.

Shark Park is bloody difficult to watch football rain hail or shine.
