The CEO came out a few weeks ago and said the capacity is 15k , where is the other 2k ?

fascinating

 

[drcmuch]

Yeah so what’s your point,

You just said 12,842 was "much it could only hold".

 

[Iamback]

Agreed... Dogs are in a hole and with players out some of the bandwagon might get off early!
We will be lucky if Penrith bring 10K supporters.

I think it gets 45k.

I think we bring 15k - we averaged that at CommBank this year and at far worse timeslots then this will be.

 

[Generalzod]

You just said 12,842 was "much it could only hold".

Circumstances could have changed due to safety issues due to construction.

All depends if this Thursday is centrelink pay for you country lads... final tickets are a lot more then ordinary games.

The flip side, Burwood road might be closed for non existent celebrating and you guys won't get through.

We had 8 home games this year, 1 was a Saturday night, 1 was a Sunday.

We didn't host a game this week, we will play an Interstate Prelim. So it should lead to a larger turnout than normal for us

I'm hearing a lot of people in the media saying the Dogs/Panthers game will get 70-80k. I hope I'm wrong but atm I think it struggles to get over 50k. Penrith fans won't show up so it's all on the Dogs fans who some probably doubt whether they have a chance.

Doggies certainly have a real chance here esp if Crichton is out and they shift Burton to centre with Galvin / sexton in the halves

That last 30 minutes they were decent

Dogs should be good for 40k on their own

Nrl might need to do a 20 dollar ticket special late Thursday

Hope your right. I'd rather see the Dogs make the GF than the Panthers, especially since the Panthers couldn't even sell out the GF last year.

 

[Fangs]

Hey does anyone have confirmation on the Canberra prelim?

If they win today will the prelim be at SFS or Bruce?

99% sure it will be Bruce.

Canberra

 

[Fangs]

Only budgeting for one finals ticket. Not sure I'd travel to Bruce.

Was gonna skip the Dogs semi if Canberra win today. In the hope I could see Canberra/Penrith at SFS just like 91.

Lol... We might have injuries galore but don't be to cocky!

Its all good. I can settle for watching us beat Canterbury next week. Just like in round 17 that match was fantastic.

The last finals match I went to was 2016 v the Dogs. That was a great day out. Fitting that I get to see them play again.
