The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

[yakstorm]

I swear Brisbane gets Game 3 in 3 out of every 4 series...

Queensland has had 7 of the last 10, so it's not far off. COVID added one extra, but yeah it's generally Queensland twice, Sydney once.

2014: Lang Park
2015: Lang Park
2016: Stadium Australia
2017: Lang Park
2018: Lang Park
2019: Stadium Australia
2020: Lang Park
2021: Robina
2022: Lang Park
2023: Stadium Australia

 

[yakstorm]

no
it'd be every 2nd year lol

It's roughly 2 out of every 3 for the past decade, with Robina making it 7 from the past 10 game 3s.

Don't worry my friend, by the end of the season the NRL will be dominating this list

will you be including the soccer world cup ?

 

[Suitman]

Don't worry my friend, by the end of the season the NRL will be dominating this list

And so will the Matildas and the Football world Cup Final.
In fact, by next Thursday, they will be top of the list and good on them.

MCG has 2024 and 2026 after losing 2021 to COVID.

Brisbane always sell out regardless so game 3 there makes the most sense

game one Sydney and game two the neutral venue

but that favours nsw so rotating this offsets it

They've had 10 extra games than NSW since Origin began. We could have 3 series back to back with every single game in Sydney and they'd still have had more games in Brisbane.

We just get it

Probably not mate, I'm trying to get a gauge on how RL goes against AFL as it's the key battle in Australian sport. With RL seemingly entering a new golden age like we haven't seen since the mid 90's I want to track our reassertion of dominance in our heartland cities where there's a head to head battle with our main competitor.

i was going to suggest adding union matches - but seems like none in Sydney this year look to be getting near the top 10

Same with Brisbane, ''Super'' Rugby Union has fallen right off as a major competitor

this
we don't " compete" with sooker & yawnion in this country

& those sports have been pretty quiet on the " we're taking over " line in recent years as both have gone backwards & aren't taking over anything

the drops & derps however make claims , many claims & these need to monitored & analysed

 

[yakstorm]

Sales for Hunter Stadium tonight are underwhelming (compared to the high standards Newcastle usually sets)

Unless there is a solid walk up, tracking for a 14K-16K crowd.

Union had a crack and fails though

on soccer have a look at wsw fans comments about parramatta stadium

And so will the Matildas and the Football world Cup Final.

Yes, the most popular sport in the universe but struggling to sell tickets, so they're giving them away

Wow I’ll be watching exactly zero games of this

 

[Pneuma]

Probably a stupid question but what’s the crowd like at Newcastle?
