Northern General Admission has just sold out for AAMI Park tonight. All sideline bays are down to single seats. If it was being played on the weekend, I would be predicting 23K for the game, though I'm sure the Thursday night factor will have an impact.

Looking good to still break 20k even with thursday no-shows you would think?

Sales look similiar to the warriors game which drew 22k.

Dolphins was looking good while the sale was on and looked like less than a thousand tickets left but now there is 3 more bays showing tickets available, maybe 2k or so left.

Might break 20k also depending on the weather.
Anyone know what the capacity of the lower tier is at suncorp? @SLRBRONCOS Would imagine that would be full plus whatever stadium members turn up.

A nice and full lower tier should result in a 19-21k crowd. Stadium members will be abysmal if it rains. I think 18-22k is what we will see.

Storm had 2 Thursday night games last year Vs Roosters & Broncos, both drew low 16k. If this could crack 20k that would be a huge improvement, even 17-19k would be good.
Yeh, just going on how the sales have been I think it will break 20k.

I think it's the reach around in the afl (poor mans magic round) so no games in melbourne must be a positive despite it being a thursday game.

Dolphins vs. Tigers is the game I`m most looking forward to this weekend, deserves a lot more than 22k, that`s a 35k minimum game. Should be a beauty.

I'm sure with better weather it would have been pushing 30K, but considering its flooding in parts of Brisbane (and there's more rain on the horizon) it's more than understandable why its trending lower.

Ticket prices and weather as well as teams going well all help crowds. I’ve said it before and will say it again, the biggest factor is the skill and entertainment on show, watching the game right now it’s high class and that more than anything gets folk out their homes to the games and then off their seats when there. I am 12 thousand miles away and would pay anything to get to these games.

I just found out now that there's no drop game in sight this week in Mellboring.
Should've sold out tonight for crying out loud.

I reckon in a more favourable time slot and some promotion could have been 25k+. Still I think it looks like 20k which as mentioned earlier would be a huge improvement on both Thursday games last year in Melbourne.
