How long until the Tigers side or Wests Ashfield or hell even that Darcy Byrne wanker are bitching that the Balmain side is being neglected?
Well the tigers side don't exist anymore.
Wests Ashfield are fully behind what Richardson is doing.
Who gives a rats arse and a local mayor?

I like Campbeltown stadium.

Went there to watch Tigers v Panthers in 2017. Ground is fine. Parking is fine. They serve Carlton draught at the ground. Leagues club is right next door.

Ditch Balmain except for 2-3 games a year for nostalgia.
Yes - decent location, near a train line, has seating on the sidelines
Probably just needs to expand the grandstands on either side to give a bit more shelter and increase capacity by 5k or so, plus some hospitality areas

should be good for 8 NRL games, community sport and an A-League team

Junior and Grassroots level.

That is where the NRL need to outspend the AFL.

If we do that crowds across Australia will grow appreciably.

Its a Thursday night game.

If it where a Sunday day game would have cleared 25k.

When is the last time the Warriors got 22k on a school night?

They are still your benchmark hahaha.
We don’t play Thursday games, lol. And we beat the knights crowds on weekends, though if Newy were top of the table they’d probably get more than us, bigger ground and all

Thing is, us Knights fans have been showing great support for decades even through 3 straight spoon years, unlike Wahs fans now that they have a winning team. Lets see if their current support stays well into the 2030's, then they'll be a benchmark. Fyi, I think the Wahs are going great and probably my 2nd team.

Agree that the back few rows on the upper deck should be Silver, they are a long way from the action.

The Storm have plenty of hardcore fans who are happy to drop $600 on a Gold membership, and lots of families/casuals who are fine with GA. There isn't much demand for Bronze/Silver, as is obvious from the empty seats come game day.

There's too much of a premium on the Bronze/Silver tickets IMO. Bronze is terrible corner seats (worse than ends really) - anything beyond the dead ball line ought to be GA prices. Silver maybe $10-15 more than GA, not $25.
We’ve got Cat 1 tickets tonight ($85 adult). Front of second level. First 10 rows mostly sold the back 10 empty - those should be much cheaper.

If there is only that many tickets left, it should easily. Campbelltown usually enjoys strong walk ups (one of the few grounds that still does). Weather is predicted to be pretty nice as well, which will only help.
It’ll be a shit fight to get into … 2:30pm gates open with 4pm kick off


Only downside to what should be a pretty good afternoon
