Crowd Watch 2012

[BDR]

The 2nd game was more or less ruined by the atmosphere IMO. Seemed like nobody was interested and people were constantly streaming out. At half time in the 2nd game the stadium was about half what it was during the first game.

They botched it with the early kickoff on a work night and by having the Broncos first. Just doesn't work up here, nobody is keen to see any team but the Broncos. In Sydney at the SFS you could have 4 or 5 teams that everyone in the area has an interest in.

Should nudge 20k in Auckland, Newcastle and Cronulla.

How can you possibly watch 2 games of nrl in a row. You would need like 150$ just for beer and food.

You can if its 2 quality games, but the first half of the second game was atrocious.

 

[Big Pete]

They've exhausted the double header up here.

Brisbane haven't won a fixture and to lose like they did was always going to cause a lot of people to leave.

Dogs-Tits traditionally sucks and so fans weren't missing out on anything. I stayed around as long as I could but the quality was more disappointing than the prior lost.

Take it to Sydney & play a double header every 6 weeks or so.

Why don't they do Broncos vs a Sydney team and then Titans vs Cowboys? Is there much NQ support in Bris?

 

[Panther_Daz]

Commentators in the Under 20's game just said 19k pre-sold for the Warriors game.

 

[Perth Red]

Well I for one loved it! Two games for the price of one. As for atmosphere, the first game had about 5 mins at the end when the crowd came to life. Geez I miss English crowds!

 

[Cumberland Throw]

There's less than 19k in Auckland

About 18 I reckon

Would anyone care if every warriors home game was 530 sat

Seems to make sense to me

16,220 at Mt Smart Stadium.

There is alot less NQ fans in Brisbane than you would think.. But that is a good idea.

I think a Broncos v _____ and a St George v Cowboys would go alright.... Especially with Dragons support up here.

Problem is that saints unlike the dogs don't play in 1/4 full stadiums. Fans would be livid if move a home game to a different state.

 

[aarondoyle]

At the ground they didn't stop advertising during the Bulldogs game last night for their round 16 game in Mackay vs the Storm. With a capacity of 12000 I'm not sure it's a good move.

 

[Desert Qlder]

Canterbury v Gold Coast/NQ seems like the perfect game to take to Belmore.

18,191 at Newcastle,

Nice work knights fans.

No other team in nrl besides bris would go close to 19k v the cows

In 2 weeks Tigers play cows at campbelltown stadium on a Sunday afternoon

If tigers win next week that will be close to a sell out if not it will...Thurston should be backing up from origin aswell

Cowboys are probably the tigers biggest rivals outside of NSW/ACT

 

[Brutus]

f**k the double header in brisbane. Stupid idea.

In form I reckon we could give it a push tbh.

You really think so? I always thought we drew badly against the Dogs, you guys always used to take home games vs us to Carrara. I can't remember the crowd figures recently though so I might be wrong.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

The knights aren't in form though,

Once again great effort. Wish they could win a few
