The Game 2020 Crowd Watch

[Jamberoo]

Reckon the Storm final next week should get a similar crowd.

It is hard to tell. You would think people are hanging out for footy but even with reduced capacity games still aren't selling out.

Hopefully the finals change that

It will get more as QLD government has announced 75% capacity from Oct 1.

No reason it doesn't get 30k now.

Bitter sweet feeling seeing crowds come back into the NRL. Being in Vic, I'm very envious! But it's great to see

I think if the pricing is cheap it could get 25k. The Brisbane folk have been starved of good football and the likely scenario of Melbourne v Roosters is a ripper day out for a neutral. Now that the capacity has been lifted If it’s Melbourne v Parra we could see 30k.

They should price tickets the same as a normal match. Around $25. I was watching some old finals games yesterday and you forget how much of a difference a big crowd makes. Hopefully Souths win tonight and it is Storm v Parra.
Crowds in Brisbane for Storms two games and AFL should be interesting. AFL has most tickets priced above $60. Can’t see them cracking more than 5k - 8k for games not involving Lions.
What is the Canberra’s capacity for the semis? If 50% - 75% they should sell out.

Looks like another week where the NRL has out scored the awFuL by a few thousand

I think Canberra will be allowed 12k.

edit. Allowed 9600.

Hehe. No AFL games this week so correct. Has anyone actually been keeping tabs?

weren't he AFL doing more than one round a week as well? I usually keep half an eye on it but his year nothing

Panthers v Roosters sold out in an hour and half.

Which is actually quite ridiculous.

There is no legitimate reason why at the every least they shouldn't be allowed 50% capacity. It should actually be 75% or more.

Knights fans section sold out yesterday

Limited availability for category 1

I’m optimistic of 25-30k but the track work on the CC and Newcastle line could turn a lot of travelling fans away

 

[Jamberoo]

Canberra single tickets only.
ANZ can only get eight tickets together in Cat 1. Could top 30k
Suncorp can’t get eight seats together, limited selections if six. Hopefully 20k.
Tickets selling very, very well.

Interestingly, up in QLD, the AFL has gone for profits in the Saints v Bulldogs game rather than a bigger crowd, tickets are $35 - $93 and looks like only 10k available. Strange way to promote the game. Well done to NRL/Storm offering $20 tickets. Smart.

Other three AFL finals sold out but NRL won’t be far off the AFL this week and depending on match ups could possibly beat them for the overall finals total.

Probably a good chance Storm will outdraw the Lions then? Assuming its the same prices

 

[horrie hastings]

Was wondering what the capacity of Penrith would be covid wise for the finals and its 7,299.

https://www.wellingtontimes.com.au/story/6943896/penrith-get-bigger-crowds-for-finals/?cs=11943#:~:text=given their hill.-,With a slightly altered seating plan, Penrith will instead be,usually holds just over 22,000.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Storm v Parra tickets are going like the clappers.

 

[siv]

Canberra and Penrith games should have been played at ANZ

8,000 and 9,600 rather than 40,000

Are stadiums allowed more in now its finals?
