Crowd Watch 2011 Mk II

[clarency]

While Carrara may be owned by stadiums QLD, like Robina, the difference is that the AFL would have stepped in and cut a deal with them to lower the prices to their liking.

Exactly what the NRL should be doing.

What is it you want? Wikipedia has most the answers (and yes it's not 100%, but it still gives a good idea).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_NRL_season_results

www.rugbyleagueproject.org and http://nrl.has.it are much better for crowd stats and comparisons.

Stadium's QLD don't own Carrara?

Nope, Metricon Stadium (as it's now known) is independent from SQ.

EDIT: So it appears they do. Never mind

What is wrong with the Gold Coast crowds.

 

[Brutus]

Looks about 15k in Canberra

 

[sean11evo11]

12,997 on GC

 

[Timmah]

13,457 at Canberra.

I thought that was a bloody good turn out at Canberra stadium. it was well advertised that we were expecting sub zero temperatures by half time. felt every bit of those minus 1 degrees as well.

Gold Coast Titans will be lucky to get 12k unfortunately.

I doubt they did - despite the crowd being posted at 12,997. I'd say there's been a bit of imaginative counting in that.

My impression was 11-12k so wasn't really surprised by the released figure.

 

[shaggs]

There was 12000 legs at skilled. Mostly sharks fans. Good times

 

[Timmah]

Not surprised by the temp in Canberra, saw photos of ice in the in-goal area after fulltime. Insanely cold.

 

[Desert Qlder]

In the "Battle of the Gold Coast", the Suns drew just over 16,000 to their game this afternoon.

Will be interesting to see what sort of crowd shows for the Titans whick kicks off shortly.

Goodness. Considering the reports from aussie rules fans an bigfooty.com of free tickets being given away, the subsidised nature of ticket prices by the AFL and the novelty value of the new side, thats an ordinary crowd.

& we're going shit house to boot

I thought it was a bit bigger then 13.5K
a great turnout under the circumstances ...

a good win too ... rewarding the brave souls who turned up

when its that cold (-2 shortly before half time ) it is blisteringly uncomfortable
well done Raiders fans .. the " toughest " in Australian sport

I was watching some junior football on Friday night

I actually saw the frost decend & settle on the ground that night & the players dissapeared behind a fog a one stage
by fulltime it was 2 inches thick on the ground at the ends where there was little play taking place .. they breed em tough down here ;-)

Well for now lets not get rid of the Sharks.

Could be our biggest crowd of the year here (which is not a lot still). Big lines trying to get in after the Warriors v Storm game finished. Need a win here leading into home games against the Dogs and Eels so everyone comes back!

Easily 15k plus. Biggest since tigers last year. Some big crowds to come in Dogs, Eels & tigers

Just turned the TV on. Would be surprised if there is 15,000 at Penrith. More like 12,000.

No way 15k. 13 maybe.

 

[Paullyboy]

There is no way the titans got that many last night, massive fudging going on.

Great result by the Canberra faithful
