Yes great to see the West rise again and be great if Bulldogs and West's could get it right and what happened to that Ultra Soccer team who was meant to be the biggest team out West ?

Not saying it happened, but maybe Eels fans bought a year's membership to swell the soccer crowd figures so we could get our new stadium
We were even prepared to attend Union matches there if it would have helped (not required thankfully)

Who cares about the wanderers - they fulfilled their purpose.

God damn, we are the best!!!

6pm Friday against a team no one gives a shit about and we STILL get a bigger crowd than anything Sydney is gonna come up with.


It’s a great crowd but with only one team to support, it’s not unexpected, is it? One team towns should be regularly turning fans away at the gate.

It is a great crowd by the Knights especially since they do bugger all promotion. The club itself does not deserve such strong support. A good comparison would be to go to Geelong and see how much that club does around town to get support.

More footy teams, more codes and generally more of everything in Sydney.

theres 8.5 NRL teams in Sydney
less per captia then Newcastle

3 A league teams that couldn't fill redfern oval between them
the waratahs who couldn't fill a phone box
& the 2 AFL teams , one with a bit of support & one with none

Canberra has less then 500K & we have 3 professional sports teams

the one team town excuses don't stack up

There’s more to do in Sydney generally, though. And I’m sure the peak-minute traffic conditions play havoc in regional centres lol
