Crowd Watch 2011 Mk II

[BunniesMan]

I've suspected the Titans have been playing with their crowd numbers for quite a few games. There is no way that stadium was anywhere near half full, they'd be lucky if they got 10k.

 

[Dutchy]

14,090 at Penrith. Not a bad crowd considering the other mob would have f**k all support there.

 

[Wilson1]

Anyone know the crowd at the Warriors?

 

[Panther_Daz]

Great to see so many kids there today. 14k v the Cowboys who had 20 supporters there is a sensational result. Should get 18k v the Dogs.

 

[Dutchy]

Over 22k at marathon.

I was close the crowd was still coming in at kick off. I wonder if some walked away. It's a shame if that happened.

That makes both GC sides then

To be fair, half full would be a shade under 14k so the reported crowd is still under half

 

[Saint Doc]

Still no crowd for Auckland?

 

[undertaker]

Over 22k at marathon.

22326. If the Knights maintain good form, the Sunday arvo game vs Manly next month should get 25000+.

 

[DIOGENES]

97,493 this round excluding Auckland and Monday's game - should easily beat the 119K from last year

 

[Cheesie-the-Pirate]

Reserved areas down to single seats only according to Ticketek for tomorrow night's game. No indication of how many tickets have been sold for the hill.

Good signs for 15k plus on a Monday night.

I was thinking the same thing. Great atmosphere in the crowd today.

I actually thought it was very flat for long stages today. Just my impression but night games there always seem to have a better atmosphere.

Great crowd though, we are a bigger drawcard than the dragons :lol:

 

[Timmah]

Uh, no you aren't. The stadium wasn't finished for the Dragons game.

 

[adamkungl]

Yeah we are Tim. Deal with it...people love a guaranteed win :lol:

I think it was flat in the first 20 minutes but after that it was pretty consistent.

Even after the game was effectively won at that final scrum, a Newcastle chant was going around again.

It was also good to see the Roosters fan come to the game today. It's good for him to get out of Sydney.

 

[Timmah]

Having been at today's game, I can say I only heard NEWCASTLE started by the fans once. Wasn't loud or convincing either. The other three times I heard it, it was piped through the big screen and audio system much like "Parra" clap clap clap.

That New-cas-tle screen prompt chant is a joke. They tried recording last week and we were just ridiculing it.

I actually like sitting on the Andrew Johns side. The people around us get into it and we get this commentary in our ears by there two old guys.

I really don't know what you guys are talking about though. When that 50 metre breakaway was called back the howls were quite deafening.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

f**k me swinging. First people complained that crowds were low. Now when we get a decent sized crowd we criticize what they do at the game. If 22000 fans show up at Newcastle they can sit their mute the whole game or break into a soaring redition of "Friday" for all I care.

What's next? :crazy::crazy:

 

[Timmah]

I heard boos and cheers but the NEWCASTLE chant specifically wasn't that prominent.
