The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

[Vibing]

No reason Dogs v Parra can’t be 35k, it’s still school holidays

considering they can only fit 30K , that would be a legit reason

luckily we have 2 games to get the 35K

Ah Commbank has a 30k capacity.

Fair call. I thought it was at Acccor

will get over 40K I'd say
Canberra will be a problem , its going to be a shit of a day apparently

Luckily they only need around 5k to keep the average over 20 and you’d hope it’s more than double that

I think the Canberra crowd should respond a little to last week's performance and be not bad

Shithouse weather today in Canberra and the raiders are not releasing undercover seats that are reserved for potential new members. Morons.

I’ll be checking till about 1pm and if they list some undercover I’ll be going and have a pax, but it looks below the sharks game sales at game day.

Surely NZ deserves a second team After the Warriors magnificent turnout yesterday, and there's so much appetite for RL in NZ it's not funny.

The NRL should hurry up and consider this as the next 18th team in maybe Wellington or Christchurch. While Rugby League crowds are on a massive rise in Kiwi land and the best spectator sport on the planet. However the Union crowds is dwindling, just look @ there recent crowds empty seats everywhere, maybe people are finally waking up and realising the game has turned into a farce.

That would be cool I used to think Wellington but now I’m more for Christchurch. Stadium wise it’s a better option, they are building one right now. It’s the right configuration unlike Wellington. Slightly bigger urban population and I like the idea of a north/ south divide in nz for nrl

Sooner the better, just make it happen NRL...

When will the new stadium finish? And what will be the capacity?

Not for many years April 2026. Capacity to be 30000. In the meantime there is rugby league park.

Not really.

Christchurch and Wellington are both tiny. About the same size as Newcastle. And Rugby League is borderline nonexistent outside of Auckland (which is strange, considering how popular the NRL is with Kiwis who have come across the ditch.)

1 team in NZ is enough for now.

Pretty much this. Comps outside of Auckland are not strong. Some are coming back but a lot of damage has been done. The other issue is where is the bid for a second team anyway? We know of WA, PNG and the various bids in Brisbane but NZ? Who?

 

[Warriors Fever]

I’m inclined to agree as much as I want to see it I think Perth should be next

Realistically the only bid from NZ that would have any chance of success would be a 2nd Auckland team. There just isn't enough interest or a large enough population elsewhere in NZ.

Perfect timing for 2027.

Take Origin to anywhere in NZ and it will sell out ten times over.....you'll be just surprised how many people visit from NZ to Australia for Origin games...
