2024 Crowd Watch

[AlwaysGreen]

Flogball in Sydney is booming. 40000 fans in a city of 5.3 million! If they can only get 0.0075%!

I don’t think 20% of potential attendees were kept away. Would have been 22-23k.

Any other Sydney team would have cracked 25k for a week 2 final against a non-Sydney team. Would expect several (Roosters, Eels, Souths, Bulldogs) would be comfortably in the 30s. Manly, Dragons & Penrith! would push 30. Tigers last ever finals game was a week 2 game on a Friday night against the Wahs in 2011. Pulled 27k.

haha wtf would a tigers fan know about finals and crowds..

Inside and got my seat, still quite a bit of room in the upper deck of the members but filling quickly.

Yet we haven't had our prelim weekend yet.

Dogs 50k (one of 9 Sydney clubs)

Swans 44k with all the city's AFL fans funnelled into the one team (no one follows GWS)

One thing I'm pissed about Allianz is why not build it to 50k when it was razed, instead of giving it the same capacity? Those extra seats would still be great viewing

Does little to future proof and cater for bigger events

 

[Diesel]

Should be a cracker of a game

Sharks must be fuming that the Roosters are playing at home lol

Where was this guy when the dogs and Manly did 50k beating both week 1, 2 and 3 Sydney AFL finals crowds?

Yep I feel the same about Suncorp when they rebuilt it. We had a 60k stadium (QE2) and the new Suncorp was built at 52k, should have been at the bare min 60, if not 65k

How could they have built it bigger? It was constrained in every direction.

As predicted, sharks fans hate nothing more than travelling over the bridge to watch their team.

apart from ethnics on the beach

there's Visa process that hinder them from traveling across the bridge

Great crowd

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Double Sharps

 

[Generalzod]

Who would have thought that 2 Sydney teams will generate a great crowd…

That's what happens when your "stadium" is equivalent to a high school oval.
