I’m not sure they are allowed more than 18 or 18 and a bit or so in WIN these days. I guess we will get an indication this weekend

Austadiums says 13,000 seats, hard to imagine they’ll let 9,000 in on the hill. 5-6,000 seems closer. I could be wrong but I thought the Manly game there earlier in the year sold out in the end? that ended up about 16k. Good to see a sellout regardless.

I was surprised with the turn up... it looked like tickets were actually moving leading up to the game.

Still 3,921 is up from 3,634 for the same fixture last year, so at least it is heading in the right direction.
Women's team sport struggles to make an impact at club level everywhere. Mainly because markets are saturated by the equivalent men's product.

Rep fixtures provide the best chance of cutting through. Seen it over here with England in Soccer and, to a lesser extent, Rugby Union. Likewise, Origin is crucial to Aussie women's RL.

Really hope the NRL can galvanize the fanbase for next year's Australia v England games. Starting in Vegas.

Only the hill sold out for the Manly game, there was still seating unsold, especially in the northern grandstand.

Great crowd Wahs. Good signs for Wollongong. St George really need to dig into this area more. Need to embrace the Illawarra in their name. Play in the red jersey when they play there.
I`m a Saints supporter of 50 years plus (I started young ha ha) and even I don`t mind the idea of them going full-Illawarra Steelers when they play in the `Gong.

That`s why I think double-headers with the same men`s home team are the go. Makes it more of an event and our games don`t go on for too long for it to be a drag.

GA sold out at Allianz Stadium. Extra bays on Level 2 opened up (201 & 208).

Promising signs for the game, had worried sales would stop once the rain came this morning.

This takes the Eels home attendance average to 17,782 for the season, and an average of 18,525 at Commbank Stadium.

This takes the Warriors home average this season to 24,721 if you include Magic Round (and 22,970 if you dont), while their home average at Go Media Stadium is 23,686,
