2024 Crowd Watch

[Perth Red]

Roosters average for a club that often cops it for not having fans, is amazing. Obviously new stadium helps, but other clubs should be looking very closely at their model. Imagine clubs like the Dragons, Tigers, Souths and the Dogs worked to get a model like this going. All clubs that traditionally have higher home support than the Roosters. Could have 4 clubs right there averaging 30k+ - Dogs are a bit harder with the stadiums currently available, but if they ever get something off the ground they will be easily averaging 30k+ maybe even towards 40k, if the capacity is 50k+

Yes its great to see post covid the NRL attendances now getting to decent levels for the majority of clubs. I remember when people mocked Dave Smith for putting a 20k avg goal in the NRL strategic plan!
New stadiums make a big difference, hard to build crowds if your stadium cant hold them. It still feels Allianz and Commbank are under utilised but as clubs see the other clubs in those stadiums financially pulling away it may motivate them to rethink suburbia.

 

[Penrith fan]

Dave Smith is smarter than 99% of people in football.

Panthers Dogs May 10th has about 40 something seated tickets left. One of the three hill sections already sold out.

6pm time slot be damned.

to be fair, he also expected this 7 years ago

 

[Penrith fan]

Yes good call. It has taken awhile.

Wasn’t rhere something that disrupted crowds during those years? What was it again? Coveen? Covering? Something like that

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

The Broncos presales are simply insane.

Looking forward (and not at the Roosters game this week):
Round 12 v Titans - level 7 south has sold out, and level 6 is nearly sold. On track for a sellout - the Broncos should open level 7 east yesterday.
Round 14 v Cronulla - level 5 has sold out, and level 6 is selling well. On track for 35-38k. The Broncos should have opened level 7 south yesterday.
Round 18 v Penrith - Level 6, and level 7 south has sold out. The game is down to single seats, but level 7 north and east have not been released and they should be immediately.

Just open the stadium up, please!!

The social media team is doing an incredible job - routinely going viral on tiktok, instagram, etc. Helps that most of our players are handsome!

I was chatting with a mate who is a member. He said he can't believe the amount of young girls attending these days. Back 5-10 years ago, it felt like the crowds were easily 80% men. Now it's more like 60% at the sell out games. The girls are getting behind the team too - particularly for the big games - which is awesome. A diverse fanbase means it will only grow.

Titans game should hopefully sell out if they release the away bay tickets. Titans ticketing reps are saying that they are waiting for the Bronx to release them so Titans members can be provided with codes, but the Broncos one is saying that they are waiting for the Titans to actually purchase those tickets first.. Either miscommunication or they may just not get released.

I have no doubt that the Broncos v Titans game will sell out. Surely they'll sort out bay 317 for you. I wonder if the Titans don't want to commit to buying the whole bay and on selling it to members in case they don't sell. Probably better if the Broncos just release them and whoever gets them gets them.

Check your barcode in the unlock tickets box just to see if it has randomly been sorted

Couldn’t agree more. Was a good bloke who had some great ideas for the game. Got screwed by the clubs and was hung out to dry.

His unfulfilled statement = great leadership.
PVL actually achieving the goal = terrible leadership.

The ARLC forecast 20k crowds by 2017. This was in 2013.

 

[Diesel]

Gloss worn off Redcliffe already? Still they have the broncos fans to boost their avg so all good.

What was the crowd in Perth this weekend
