Apparently only 4000 tickets have been sold for the Sharks/Warriors game so far lol

I doubt that .......... this isn't the Super 15 .. its the NRL
source ?

 

[Jono1987]

I've seen this...but I still don't mind the hill. I put it down to Kogarah being a sh*thole full of dumb merkins who think its their right to spread out on a picnic blanket in a packed crowd then sook when everyone is standing in front of them even though the ground announcer repeatedly told everyone to stand due to limited space.

You'll find that occurs at every ground with a hill you numpty.

I've said before that I'd love for Kogarah and Wollongong to be 25k all seat stadiums. However I think it's unlikely that will ever happen because as Chessie alluded to there isn't enough football being played at those grounds to warrant the money required to make the complete upgrades. On top of this the Dragons continue to lead the NRL in ticketed memberships, which if we continue to grow at the same or similiar rate we have over the last two years, will force the club to make some drastic decisions. On of which maybe to move more games to a larger stadium.

pax 7471 at gosford and got them a few hours ago, will need a big walk up but nothing new on that front. I would still expect anything from 15 to 18k tonight

 

[cleary89]

Newcastle should sell out

 

[cleary89]

Crowd looks decent.

 

[Panther_Daz]

If the capacity is 20k i would say there is 17.5-18.5k there

 

[docbrown]

Crowd looks decent.

Very good for a Friday night with 2 travelling teams. My guess 17-18k.

Well done Central Coast Rugby League fans.

good stuff.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

16k on coast I reckon. Pretty good seeing they only send the worst drawing games up here

 

[Billythekid]

Not many other places would pull a crowd like this with 2 neutral teams.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Other places would get good crowds once .

But central coast consistently gets 15k + for over 5 games a year for past 7 years

 

[user_nat]

Looks even worse than expected at Suncorp.

Although hard to speculate to much before half time at Suncorp, it seriously looks barely even half full.

So Newcastle may get the biggest crowd this weekend?

How many times has a broncos game not been the biggest crowd of the weekend? Especially in recent times (obviously i am only talking about times when they are playing).

 

[beave]

there looks to be not much more than 20k at Suncorp...................

 

[Red Bear]

18110 at the Central Coast, pretty damn good with only the upper bays on each end empty-ish. Good to see a bit of red and black around as well.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Oh oh. Broncos will get outdrawn by the gc suns this weekend

How embarrassing

 

[Billythekid]

That would be a disgrace if it happens. It doesn't matter what the reason is its going to look real bad.

 

[CC_Roosters]

Not bothered what it is compared to the suns, but that is a really poor effort by the broncos fans. What is their excuse? looks like a dry night, coming off a win, side full of young prospects, great stadium........

Meanwhile cracking crowd and atmosphere at gosford tonight, plenty of retro Bears and CC bears gear around which was good to see.
