Titans v Wests Tigers (NRLW): 11,105
Storm v Dragons (NRL): 18,103

 

[ouwet]

St George winning all but guarantees a sell out at Kogarah next week...

 

[yakstorm]

5 games in for the round and we're at 94,451 (18,890 average)

 

[t-ba]

Pretty good for so far.

Don't look at round 24.

That's uhh...shaping up to be a bit weak.

Is there much room for expansion or is the ground hemmed in by roads and buildings ?

Yes plenty. Only pinch spot is in north west corner but still enough space for a new west stand. there’s loads of room behind north stand. south stand was designed to take a roof and fill in the corners at a later date.

Stadium could easily and quickly be upgraded to around a very respectable 24k-25k capacity.

I wouldn’t say easy lol. It’d take around $200-300mill and 18 months I’d suggest to do it properly.

With a new west stand they could extend the north end shed full width that’d cheaply add a further 1000 or so standing spaces. New west stand adding around 4000
and roof over south stand and upper corners filled in adding a further 1200.

That takes it to around 27k which would be perfect for us For the foreseeable future.

Easy in terms of scope.

you reckon the WA government would fund such upgrades?

Hopefully. If the nrl hasn’t demanded it of them they havent been doing their job very well!

I dunno mate, the main stand on the western side being off centre tells me they were hemmed in by height restrictions or the like the closer they got to the road. Why else would the main stand be off centre like that? Would be great if they could replicate the eastern stand.

300 million for one stand ? Lol

need to get rid of the shed as well that’s awful

For 500 million they could build a new ground somewhere else that’s actually good

12,763 at Shark Park last night. Takes the round over the 100K to 107,214

If we get 36,786 or above for Sunday's games, we'll finish with an 18K+ average for the round. Getting to 19K is impossible.

Yes but it's still been a cracking year.

Certainly and it's been a good round considering we had no games at Suncorp or Newcastle to do the heavy lifting.

5-6 sell outs plus an 18K+ game is a great result.

It’s a great effort especially when you factor in the sharks playing at home.
