The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

[Frank Burge]

About time, when was the last time? In 1980?

Does anyone know the capacity? I guess we will find out soon

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

We are in for a cracking day of crowds.

Roosters v Penrith is only selling cat 2 GA in the upper south end. I wonder if they will open level 4 east soon.

 

[mave]

How good are suburban grounds!!

 

[Vibing]

20,847

also
19,173 V Melb in 2018

Not that good really.

You will love this stadium, it's out of this world.

gates closed
hundreds locked out

They could have fit those hundreds in.
Stupid O H and S. Crowd will probably be around 16-17000.
The hill is packed but nothing like it has been in the past.
Record there is 23582 vs ironically, Souths in 1975.
It's still a shite ground though.

Certainly a great crowd! Not questioning that.
I'm questioning ground capacity limitations these days. They suck. Fancy turning a few hundred fans away when they could easily fit in?

 

[Harry O]

Really wanted to go to the Roosters game today, but we're @ our local watching every game and smashing the bar every 20 minutes

i agree
the ground hasn't changed since 2009 & they.. " allowed " nearly 21,000 in for a game that year

they've turned away 500 odd people that almost certainly would have fitted in somewhere today so there is certainly an element of inconsistency

They should have put them on the roof, like in the Grand Final 5 decades ago

 

[No1_Eel]

How good is it that the team coming last has a sell out?! I know it’s a small ground but still great.

I feel like these are the crowds the great product or rugby league actually deserves.

[SouthsCountry]

17,357

My fears were not met...massive walk-up

More 3pm all Sydney games

 

[SouthsCountry]

I went to Souths-Tigers 3pm at Accor earlier this year and even that had a good atmosphere. (21,013)

3pm Sat All-Sydney games are the order

 

[Harry O]

Bring on next game.

Went to kogarah as a neautral today.

Very solid crowd but poor viewing on the hill until I found a grass spot.

Also lines for food and drinks were quite long. The bar on the hill shut the bar at half time.

The lack of permanent facilities has been a problem for some time. In the Norm Provan Stand, there's only one food outlet, which is pretty poor especially because that's where the season ticket holders all sit. Otherwise the ground's pretty much complete now
