Crowd Watch 2012 Mk II

[Cumberland Throw]

Should games vs out of town teams be allowed at quality all-seaters like bluetongue or parramatta? Bluetongue would have looked great tonight. Likewise penrith vs cowboys would be better at parra than ANZ

You don't drop your pants

What you do is sell the farkin sport

The nrl has an income now of about 250 million a year

My local school fete had a bigger marketing campaign
Than the finals

And they have an abundance of free media outlets dying to talk to nrl stars all week

Answer me this how did a MNF game in 1994 get double tonight's crowd at sfs

Marketing. It's all that works in sin city

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Manly fans better fckin be there next week (if they advance)

Melbourne is a long way from Narrabeen

 

[Xfactor1979]

Melbourne is a long way from Narrabeen

Oh...

that

Anyway Manly could spring a surprise and beat the Mexicans :crazy:

Also the atmosphere in the stadium is terrible

 

[Cumberland Throw]

17678 imho

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

That's a 15k crowd from my SFS experience but it's hard to tell without seeing the western side.

^ Thats a crowd rivalling Sydney FC (A-League) proportions :crazy:

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Its good when the play is on the half way line. You can kind of suspend reality and pretend there is 35k there

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

There's what, 5 million people in Sydney? It's supposed to be a final at a neutral venue.

The mentality of "it's not my team I'm not going" is what holds back the crowds and before anyone says its on a Friday night the majority of people wanted $1bn regardless of consequences

 

[Haffa]

^ This

Plus the game should be at brookie.

 

[M2D2]

No. It shouldnt be at brookie. Shut the f**k up about that already. f**king idiot merkins.

 

[elbusto]

No. It shouldnt be at brookie. Shut the f**k up about that already. f**king idiot merkins.

Agree. Brookie would be a huge backward step. FFS it is now a billion dollar game. Brookvale is a 20 cent dump.

 

[Haffa]

No. It shouldnt be at brookie. Shut the f**k up about that already. f**king idiot merkins.

:lol: yes it should.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Manly just do not deserve to be in the NRL with this kind of crowd. Pathetic. Their fans are pathetic, cant even get 20k in a finals game, this crowd isn't even acceptable as a regular season game let alone a finals match. Will be great when we actually have a finals series made up of teams that actually have a fan base.

 

[M2D2]

:lol: yes it should.

The place is a hole. Its the worst ground in the NRL. Its not NRL standard let alone Finals standard.
Now shut the f**k up.

 

[Cletus]

I'll go 22,596.

:roll: so it's like going to shark park? :lol:

QFT

Brooky needs work granted but on a Friday night across the city against an interstate side, the NRL deserves a shit crowd for being f**king geniused merkins

 

[M2D2]

Not as bad, but close. Brooky/Liech are the worst.

No, Manly fans need a kick up the ass for not going to the game.

It's pussy fans like you that want excuses to not go.

 

[Yosemite Sam]

I'll go 22,596.

That would be a good result, but it looks between 15-20K.
