Commbank Stadium Parra's 14th Man / Fortress Material

After last night Parra have now played 50 games at Commbank since the stadium opened up in 2019.

How much has the new stadium helped the club and should it be considered fortress worthy.

After 50 games we have won 37 games at a 74% winning rate.

We have an average winning margin of 17.40, Losing Margin of 13 and a Points Differential of +471.

We average 25.2 points a game in attack while conceding on average 15.8 points a game in defence.

19 of the 37 wins have been 13+

In the 17 games decided by 6 points or less Parra have come up winners 11 times.

Perhaps the greatest influence is the crowd & fans whenever there has been more then 25k attend a Parra game at Commbank Parra’s record is 9 wins and 1 Loss.

It’s not only the wins but the scoreline in those 10 games is 370 to 103. Average winning margin of 29 points & all 9 wins have been 13+.

Big wins in those games include a couple of hammerings of Bulldogs in past 2 seasons.

51-6 against Tigers – Opening day in 2019

58-0 against Brisbane – Semi final in 2019 – Best Arvo at the footy ever.

40-4 against Canberra – Semi Final in 2022

34-10 against Penrith – in 2022.

The only loss with the crowd over 25k was the Jackson Hastings last second FG to the Tigers on Easter Monday 2022.

So is Commbank fortress worthy and how much of a factor has it helped the club have a good run of success with the crowd behind them at the new stadium since 2019.

This is our H2H record against all clubs Souths are the only side we have a negative F/A and below 50% winning record against.

Souths were our bogey, was great to get that home win over them a few rounds back.

Looking at the table, it would be nice to get another home win over the Titans but with a bigger margin next time, just to cement the fortress element in their minds. And another one against the Dragons, to draw ahead of them. And a home win over the Dolphins next year to open the account.

That's impressive, but so is our basic win % 2019-2023 which is circa 63%.

I still think the new ground has made a big difference. And translated to a successful side.

Our record at the old Parramatta Stadium was never that good over any 50 game period I wouldn't think.

After the 2018 disaster the stadium came at the perfect time and added a fresh vibe to the club after the trainwreck the preceding year was.

I think BA and the team made a conscious effort in that 1st season to build It into a fortress our home form was excellent but on the road we were still up and down in 2019.

I think we front loaded our effort so to speak into our home matches.

We still haven't missed the finals since it opened.

Home games vs Warriors , Titans, Roosters and Dragons to come this year

Win all 4, which is a real possibility , though lose Moses/JPaulo for Warriors game due to origin 3, toughest game

played 54 won 41 = 76%

Yeah I thought that period could have been our best at the old ground but from memory we finished 7th in 2000 so I thought had a middling season might have affected the home %.

Our F/A is probably similar we handed out s few 50 point thumping in 2001
