We could end up with a 20k average this round.
So far we’re around 15k with 4 to go -
Tigers/Manly 12k -15k
Phins/Titans 20k-25k
Chooks/Saints 38k-42k
Storm/NZ 25k-28k

As much as I hope I'm wrong, I'd say the upper limit for Wests Tigers v Sea Eagles is 10K, with the match tracking more for 8K.

We are at 61,530 after 4 matches, 41,000 & 26,000 are possibly the realistic upper limits for Tuesday, which means we need a combined 31,470 or more to stay in the hunt.

Getting a similar crowd as the TNF game vs the Rabbitohs isn't impossible for the Dolphins, they did sell corner tickets & memberships on Lvl 5 earlier in the week, Platinum tickets are now more than 90% sold and Silver is down to single seats.

Gold corner's aren't great, but they weren't great for the Rabbitohs game either.

The Dolphins look content with their expected crowd for today. Category silver has sold to single seats and they have not yet opened up level 5 or 6 so that people can buy cheaper seats (silver, bronze, and red).

Not everyone will be keen on the $65 gold seats on the sideline corner. For me personally, I hate the in goal - 20m area. I'm a 30-50m sideline snob and would prefer sit in level 6. Or even level 5 behind the posts over that. Might turn a few away that don't want to pay that, or sit there.

I’ve sat in level 6

binoculars are needed

anywhere in the Lower bowl is amazing

even the corners up the back due to the rake

i sitting almost 20 rows back on the 40 m line and you can hear the players talking

I mean all of Suncorp is great, but for me personally I love 601 and 602 rows 60-66.

301, 302, 321, and 322 are the absolute best though.

17,970 for the Cows/Newy game
Very solid considering last year's game (also on Saturday) got 14,463. With the Cowboys on a 3 win streak and coming 3rd at the time. These are the type of games to look at to see if we're really seeing game wide growth.

I still don't understand why NQ doesn't get a home game on ANZAC day, the largest garrison city in Oz with a huge contingent of ex serving peeps that have got out and stayed in location for mine it's a no brainer.

The 2 teams I would propose as the opponents would be Canberra or Newy.

Canberra is generally a lower drawing game so you inflate that game with the event hype.

Newy same as above but being that Newy has a sizeable RAAF base at Williamtown vs the more predominant army flavour of Townsville, I would leverage off this.

3pm Sydney Game

5pm NQ game

7pm Melbourne game.


The only negative that I can think of is the following weeks scheduling is a challenge when you have ANZAC day fall on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

ANZAC Day on Tuesday is the end of the round like this year. While ANZAC Day on Wednesday could be the beginning of the next round.

So teams playing on Tuesday would back up the following Sunday. Teams that play on Wednesday could be scheduled Thursday/ Friday in the round previously.

This is an interesting read. With the Bronx the only NRL club with over a million fans. Second is Storm not far off. Even though way back in 17.
I think those Manly figures may be a little bit inflated. I’ve always said the Sharks have at least 150k fans.
Should of had that game on the Central Coast.
What on earth for? Are you making suggestions for the sake of just making a suggestion?
