Redcliffe v South Sydney 25k? (no idea)
Cronulla v Sydney 12k
Manly v Melbourne 17k (sellout)
New Zealand v North Queensland 20k
Newcastle v Penrith 24k
Gold Coast v Brisbane 21k
Canberra v St George 13k
Parramatta v Canterbury 24k

19.5k average
I reckon that’s pretty right except I’d swap Newcastle and Gold Coast. Dolphins would get over 30000 Friday or Saturday.

Now all the crowd numbers are in ,would the mathematical Einsteins among us give us the overall picture?
Either we dun good, best crowd in years, could have done better or we sh*t it in and there was no fudging.

I think the Dolphins crowd is optimistic.
Very first game at a good time was 32 ( so major novelty factor)
Game in Redcliffe ( only holds 12k)
Then Broncos ( sold out)
This is the first real test for the Dolphins without any novelty/ derby ect and it’s a Thursday with a Easter hangover...
I'll say 17k. Under 15 would be a disappointment over 19 would be fantastic.

Even the Broncos would only pull 25k to that fixture.

Yeh, I think that one was more what I hoped they can get. It is the first test of their real support, so to speak.
But, first Suncorp game against out of town opponent with a winning 'feel good' factor with souths off a win makes me hopeful.

Anything over 25k would be great considering the thursday night handicap.

Highlights the need for Sharks and Manly to get into modern 25k stadiums (or any other way capacity could be higher - allianz). Both clashes would and should be getting 20k+. Add in a CIVIC stadium for Canberra and we'd be looking at a round of 20k+ crowds. (I'm liking the looks of the Warriors sales).

Just imagine how much revenue the Sharks are losing each time they're playing at home. They're missing out on a close to 10k fans each time attending games. When will the construction of the ground be completed? It looks like it's taking forever!!!

Promising sales in Canberra with Platinum and Gold (Inner Bowl) both sold out. Hopefully indicates a 15K+ crowd for the weekend.

In the Gold Coast, Titanium Premium, Titanium and Gold bays are down to single seats only, Mt Smart & Newcastle grandstands are selling strongly as well.

Once the development next door is complete end this year early next, the current restriction should be lifted.Now what that means additional crowd at this stage, I have no idea.
