its not that bad... god it looked bad but, i watched it in SD so i felt less embarrased
Why are you on here ,& not at the game?
Where a dogs playing their home game next Friday ??
Wonder why they are abandoning ANZ for this game...
Actually there were 12k easts fans there.
Souths and ANZ a blight on the TGG ??13,281 at ANZ Stadium.
Very difficult to quantify really in the context of a 40k crowd. Maybe I under-exaggerated.
But ok champ, have your more specific figure :roll:
The short sighted won't look at both sides of the coin. Both Souths and the Roosters are growing their memberships annually. Souths member numbers speak for themselves given that we haven't had any success for 2 generations. The Roosters are making a concerted effort to grow thier numbers too. And they are. Souths recently broke their regular season attendance record and the Roosters were involved in a 40K match just last week.
There are plenty of positives as far as the souths fan base goes. But the roosters are difficult to defend. Weren't more than 10k easts fans there

Because we see sense when we have low drawing teams and take games on the road.Where a dogs playing their home game next Friday ??

Round averages are meaningless after Round 8 in any season at the moment.My numbers give an average of 17,589, which is 3rd highest after 9 rounds, only beaten by 2008 (average = 17,793 after 65 games) and 2010 (average = 17,731 after 68 games). The previous record total for a round 9 was back in 1995 when 10 games were played.
I think we are plugging along nice so far this season, crowds seem much more consistent with a number of struggling teams posting some decent crowds in recent weeks.
I'm projecting we will average 16,600 to 16,800
I don't know who this guy is but he presents a common argument on this blog eloquently.
