Canberra game today is showing no seats available. NQ seems to be saying the same. Unsurprisingly the St George game is showing all categories available but you’d have to think they’d get a good roll up against Manly.
Tomorrow sharks have only general admission.
Dolphins- no idea.
So the Sharks in contention for a top 4 spot, in a 12k stadium aren't sold out?
Such a blight on our competition.

I don't see the Sharks surviving in Cronulla long term without funding to their stadium. Eventually the NRL will have to say enough is enough.

Maybe in 20 years we might see them relocate and become the Adelaide Sharks.

Sharks nabbing fourth might not be bad for crowds, second week they are playing either roosters/wahs/broncos/panthers most of that results in a big crowd especially warriors/roosters.
If they win to host a prelim then they are hosting at Allianz against the dogs likely again sell out

The Adelaide sharks? What a novel idea. It’s only been thrown around here about 50 times.

That’s right. You don’t want us finishing 5th or 6th.

This article suggests that Allianz Stadium will be unavailable for 10 weeks immediately following the Wallabies vs Argentina game on Saturday 13 September:


That’s in the first week of the NRL Finals. If true, and Cronulla hosted finals games beyond the first week of the NRL Finals, their options would appear to be:
- Accor Stadium
- Sydney Cricket Ground
- Commbank Stadium
- Shark Park

I think it would end up being Commbank. At least it won't look as bad as Allianz half full.

Not one person here wanted you to finish in the top 8, wooden spoon would've been a better option for all concerned. I mean who wants to see dwindling crowds? I dont and neither anyone else does!

Wests Tigers (2006 - 19,265)
I have that slightly higher at 19,357
If the tigers ever had sustained success their crowds would be massive
They were the biggest drawing club in Sydney for 3 years (2005/06/07) on the back of the 2005 success, despite missing the finals in 04, 06 & 07. So sustained success would certainly make things interesting.

Im certain they would delay this by a week or 2. When they made that decision it looked unlikely it would be used for NRL finals beyond week 1.

I'm not sure how I got my first figure, but going back, I get the same.

Wests Tigers have a lot of potential crowd wise, they just have been run too much like a basketcase in recent years.
