2024 Crowd Watch

[Lidcombe Bull]

There's a NASCAR race on in LV this weekend too which may take away some locals.

The NRL starts at 6:30pm Saturday night - Vegas time.
NASCAR starts at 12:30pm the next day (Sunday) - Vegas time.
Hopefully some NASCAR fans add a relatively cheap NRL ticket or two to their weekend.

45K pre-sold now for Vegas with one day to go. Here's hoping for a big walk up tomorrow just to really cap off the event.

Great thing about where the crowd is now, is not only is it higher than the NRL average last year (and the Sea Eagles & Roosters averages), but it will significantly surpass what Manly v Souths + Roosters v Broncos has drawn in years.

Awesome!
I noticed paul kent said 47k sold on nrl360 today.

Let's hope it's another big year for crowds in the nrl and we can break the 20k average.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

I think based on that this year is an unqualified success? Probably the only question is whether the narrower pitch affects the game too much.

Hopefully we can get off to a good start.

Newcastle, Auckland, Brisbane, Parramatta should all be over 20K.

Melbourne & Gold Coast are the two I'm most unsure about. Gold Coast have such a strange way of releasing seats, Storm is encouraging a week out, but still a fair bit of sales to go.

I wouldn't worry I think they are allowing forwards passes for the Bronco's games.

The Titans Dragons game should be sitting closer to 15k right now. But it all depends on members and how many walk ups we get. Realistically, as a sport and the size of our stadiums, the opening round should see each stadium reach AT MINIMUM 20k per game to open the season.

One thing I noticed when looking at the stadium map on ticketmaster, is that they seem to be selling the whole stadium rather than what they usually do and having atleast the southern stand partially open for cost reasons.

If it is only a 15k crowd then it might look spread out and sparse.

Bad weather in Las Vegas today apparently - glad there's a roof!!

Crowd looks good but I know one person that thinks there should be more at the stadium

Reddit reporting traffic jams, high winds you name it. Good old rugby league.

Lol gotta take your poxy sport overseas to get a big crowd for a home and away game.

Great game so far isn’t it?

 

[Warriors Fever]

All the fumbleball/a league fans moving te goal posts because it sold well. Suddenly it’s ‘well how many Americans are going?’

The whinging on line is hilarious. Job done Peter!

Why have they got collingwood players on the field?

 

[Vlad59]

Why have they got collingwood players on the field?

You mean the guys who don’t have to tackle kick or pass? Because afl players aren’t good for anything.

 

[Kurt Angle]

Why have they got collingwood players on the field?

They're not.

They're just wearing AFL jerseys to distinguish them as having no sporting prowess.

We happen to call them referees.

You call them Brownlow medal winners

It might affect teams leaving depending on flight times
