I sense a sellout on Sunday at Campbelltown. All categories are getting the "Not enough tickets to meet your request" message, even General Admission as of this post
They're unfortunately updating the build on Ticketek. Whilst that's happening you can't buy any seats (which is why you're seeing the error message). It at least looks like they're opening up the ground for sales.

It's great to see Wests paying attention to the South West. If they give the area some love the crowds will come back.
That’s the problem with both the tigers and dragons in that they can’t build up any continuity in campbelltown and wollongong.

doesnt help when they hav been struggling for years either.

They can build continuity if they play there more often or altogether.

Just got tickets for tigers v dragons

at the very least it’ll be Ctowns biggest crowd in years … can’t really remember any games over 14k in recent memory
You have to go back to Wests Tigers v Canterbury on Sunday March 31 2019 for anything bigger than 11K.

That game drew 15,127.

Before that, you're pretty much going back to 2016 when the Tigers were able to draw 16,783 against the Titans on Saturday, August 31.

Wouldn’t say too late as no other club has come in and poached the territory and it’s solid rugby league country
Souths apparently have a large amount of their members living in the South West, but they never have taken a home game to Campbelltown and have not played there since 1999

The Broncos v Dolphins seats are going on the black market for $300-$500. There is Insane interest in the Battle of Brisbane. It is the biggest thing to happen in that city since Kepler Wessels made 162 on debut vrs England.

Or Sir Dick's 9/52 at the Gabba in 1985.

Or Boony's 51 in the 2nd innings on debut at the Gabba against the rampaging Windies in 84.

There was a Magpies v Dragons game in 1991 that pulled a then record crowd of 17k. First real sign that locals might fully embrace the club. Game ended in a 6-6 draw. No tries. All very Warren Ryan. Wests finished 5th on the ladder that year.

Back then, I just saw the facts and figures in League Express. Would be interested to know how Campbelltown stadium looked in the early 90s.
