2019 Crowd Watch

[BlueandGold]

Whats the forecast looking like for brisbane? Rain could not only heavily effect the crowd but also the surface..

Imagine the turf for the last game on sunday after 7 other games in the rain

Brisbane will be sweet over the whole weekend.

 

[Perth Red]

Some will, but there's not gonna be 20k there when Eels v Dragons could only get 25k is there?

35k members, geez you’d think 20k of them would turn out to a beaut stadium on a Sunday afternoon. Remind me again why we have so many nrl clubs in Sydney?

 

[BlueandGold]

So Eels v Rabbitohs in rnd 12 is looking good.

Selling much faster then the Dragons game.

Single seats in all sections bar Bronze.

8 Bays of Bronze you can still get 10 tickets.

Very bizarre how they play baseball during the week days.

It’s not bizarre when you consider their season has each team playing 162 games

Eels are on track for 2nd highest crowd average in NRL for 2019

And will probably be that way for a few years..

Only Newcastle a chance I'd say

If the Cowboys find some form, and get some nice draws. They’ll definitely be up there. The new stadium is huge deal for North Queensland.

Stab in the dark at Magic Round Crowds

Thursday - 13k
Friday - 51k
Saturday - 40k
Sunday - 20k

So if it were a normal week (and how ill be figuring out my stadium averages spreadsheet)

Titans v Sharks - 13k
Tigers v Panthers - 25.5k
Eagles v Broncos - 25.5k
Bulldogs v Knights - 13.334k
Warriors v Dragons - 13.333k
Storm v Eels - 13.333k
Roosters v Raiders - 10k
Rabbits v Cowboys - 10k

Total: 124,000
Avg: 15,500

This will also drag Brisbane's average down to around 20k, below WSS, the SCG & Newcastle, and sitting in 4th spot

I believe the story of this photo is that it was a last minute game to make up for one that was called off due to poor weather.

NBA and NHL have 82 games. More games, more money, more chance for more fans to see their teams play.

If I remember correctly the NBA has a 82 game season

yep its overkill... gets boring waiting till play offs.

but $$ talks.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

The Australian is saying just under 130,000 tickets sold for magic round so far.

 

[T-Boon]

Why? the game is not stressful on the players body, apart from the starting pitchers who are in a 5 day rotation.
Playing every day allows for contracts in the $40million a year range.

thats pretty good.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Yeah should be a good weekend! More than what I had thought so far. I noticed bronze had sold out last night for Friday but they have released some more that were held back. Saturday could even top Fridays crowd due to it being Saturday and the same price for an extra game.

If Brisbane ticketed members had free entry to Friday night both Friday and Saturday would sell out.

What is the pass mark for the Magic Round? 120,000 across the 4 days?

I suggest we list the match aggregates for Round 1-8 broken down by Thu Fri Sat Sun
