Jesus Christ that is really good.

Both the Titans and Sea Eagles games hitting well above what they would have before the Roni. I was seriously expecting like 8k at Brookie lol.

I was just wondering how much the competition would have gained in crowds in Cronulla's stadium hadn't been a construction zone. It turns out that the Sharks' top 5 averages at Endeavour are 2000 (13597), 2013 (13774), 1999 (13974), 2016 (14578) and 2005 (16553). So at best they would have picked up another 4-5k a game - say 50k to 60k - on top of the season average.

But only one of those seasons is above the 15k - 16k average the NRL has had for the past 20 years and none are near the 20k+ average the league aims for going forward. So it could be argued that the Sharks are a drain on the crowd averages.

I really hope the NRL isn't stupid enough to let them have a home final there next week.

If the sharks win this and the games not transferred to Moore Park next week, I'll be pissed off
