2025 Crowd Watch

Stadium members not showing up hurts the broadcast appearance of Phins crowds.

Good Friday should be at Accor even when Souths move back to Allianz. Easter Show is next door and 40k+ should be the aim every year so Allianz is selling it short, especially for the bigger years.

I’d say the same for the Easter Monday game, lowest it has ever drawn at Accor was 28k with a high of 50k.

Agree

Agree with this. We don't take advantage of the Easter Show enough. As others have suggested, we should be trying to introduce a regular Saturday game at Accor and honestly should consider hosting something the week before.

Really there is no reason why each of the games can't achieve 30K+, especially if clubs set realistic ticket prices.

Rabbitohs members area on Level 4 was full, apparently up on Level 6 was choccas too. Based on my vantage point I'd guess 52-53k Dogs fans and 12-13k Souths fans.

On a side note, I had 3 separate groups of Dogs fans yell "f**k the Bunnies!" out of car windows at me and my 11 year old son as we were walking to our car in Lidcombe.

Worst winners in the NRL and I know many fans who refuse to go to their games. But boy of boy did they turn out today.

After this performance they'll all comeback and more

NRL is kicking arse and taking names of late

Their next home game is against the Wahs on a Saturday afternoon. If they keep this up the crowd will most likely be 35-40k.

It's not until May 17

A superb crowd for the Doggies game, with 65k attending. Beating the previous stand-alone regular crowd by just over 5k is great. Shows good form, and good hype from the media and actually promoting this game, would get high crowd numbers.

The 28k at Suncorp for the Dolphins v Storm match is pretty impressive too.

Week before is where I’d start but like you said Easter Saturday or even Thursday night before Easter could work. Not sure if there was a reason but I found it odd there were no Sydney games last weekend.

Whoever isn’t hosting Good Friday could host the Dragons the first weekend of the Easter Show. That way Souths can keep one game every year at Accor while the show is on and the rest at Allianz when they move.

Best fans in the game.

Well done doggies too. Amazing

110,583 from the first 3 games, 5 games to go. Record is a chance.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Is this the first time in 117 years that an NRL crowd was bigger than an AFL crowd on a public holiday

 

[yakstorm]

So we're already at 110,583 after just three games (36,861 avg) and looking at another 70K+ from just the Warriors, Knights & Wests Tigers games.

Unknowns are Roosters & Titans games. Roosters is showing signs that it could get to 20K & Titans maybe 15K, though with large GA areas, it's hard to be confident.

With all due respect, who cares!
