2024 Crowd Watch

[Suitman]

It's great suburban grounds are being sold out, but they are still massively reducing our average crowds.
Tigers have an excuse for the shite average this weekend, the Sharks do not. They are an embarrassment.

People don't care as much about crowd average as they do having a full stadium.

I'd prefer to sit or watch a game with 18k jammed in Belmore than have 23k sitting in an empty Accor

Full house at Belmore looks great, and atmosphere would be awesome there.

Who says that people don't go to games in Sydney that involve Canberra....

Kinda filthy they're taking a game to Bundaberg for their next home match lol.

 

[undertaker]

What's more amazing as that these two teams got drew 25k at the same venue (back on Easter Monday in 1994).

 

[t-ba]

Obviously there are far less fixtures these days but the Sydney aggregate is at 1,1366,150 over 68 games for an average of 16,708.

The record is 1.69m.

Can see an aggregate of over 1.4m for the year, maybe the 5th best aggregate for Sydney in the regular season, and the best since the early 1970s.

18k today looked as full as the 27k crowd of a couple of decades ago.

Gee that must’ve been squishy!

Record crowd for a Panthers' home game against Newcastle (narrowly eclipsing the 19,936 that turned up for the 2004 NRL season opener)

They opened up a bit at the railway end too. I don't think they've done that since the 90s at least

No it didn't. I was there that day.
I saw grass today on the hill. There was 9000 more in Belmore back then.
It was properly packed, not like the OHS restricted crowd today.

Dissapointing to see such low crowds for the girls. Are fans just not as passionate?

Will it take 20, 30 years for it to really start seeing differences?

That's an aggressive and interesting reply tbh.
I'm just stating the truth and I've no idea why you feel the need to be abusive.
You could at least just reply with an answer why you disagree with me.

The answer is full house. Any moron would know that. Keep whinging though. You’re getting quite good at it. You and the Pommy twat are a great combo.

Kogarah about to sell out very very soon.

According to some here that’s just not good enough!

GA is now allocation exhausted.

Game is a sellout basically now.

The crowd will have a significant amount of Bulldog supporters that will make the atmosphere next level.

I'm not sure why you are so aggressive towards others and why you get defensive about this discussion.
There are some clubs that actually do let the NRL down when it comes to increasing attendances. Most clubs are doing their bit, but the Sharks with a capacity limit of 12 k just don't cut the mustard. You don't need to be defensive about that. Your thoughts would be considered more positive if you could come up with some suggestions as to how they could improve their average. I wish they could.
I'd love to see them averaging 18-20000 but the constraints on Shark Park are currently stupid and holding higher averages back for the whole league.
Your club has so much potential.
I just wish they could maximise the potential.
Don't come at me bro.
I just want to see the NRL be successful, and your club is a part of that.

That’s great news. I went to the sharks game last night after purchasing GA tickets ten days ago as the rest were ‘allocation exhausted’. Four days later the stands were on sale again although very limited. I’m 65. I wanted a seat. Ticketek can’t be trusted. I’d check those availability again if I were you next week.
