Crowd Watch 2012

[Caged Panther]

there has been light rain on and off all day at Penrith.

7,800 at the Raiders game.

Good crowd considering the absolutely dismal weather. Been a long time since I been to a Raiders game with weather like that.

 

[Perth Red]

Anybody still want to argue we don't need stadiums with decent roofs?

Lowest round 1 crowd since 4,705 turned up to Norths V Wests in 1999.

Can't see that one being beat any time soon.

You'll no doubt be hoping it gets beaten one day.

You'll no doubt be hoping it gets beaten one day.

Oh yeah. Everyday for the rest of my life.

I wasn't even knocking it. Pretty understandable why it was so low. I just thought it would be interesting to know how it compared to previous lows.

Gah

Not good crowds despite the weather.

Redevlopment of Canberra was pretty awful, seems to be barely anything under cover or protection from the elements, two things vital for winter sport in the capital.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

75k ish going into Sunday.

NZ - 40k (fingers crossed )
LO - 19k
ANZ- 25k

159k Would be awesome from where we are

 

[Pazza]

This just highlights the need for better facilities for NRL fans!

 

[Teddyboy]

You get so hyped up for the start of the season and then get let down by the crowds which sadly was by the weather.

 

[Chook Norris]

couple of years ago took us 12+ rounds (or something) to get out first sub 10k crowd. what a shame two of them come at once

the weather has been cruel to the nrl as of late

 

[BunniesMan]

NSW has had the wettest 2 year period on record. A stat like that doesn't happen routinely.

Oh well, Souths will pack in 30k on Monday to save the round. You're welcome.

 

[Usain Bolt]

9,585 at Penrith.
7,862 at Canberra.
16,311 at Dairy Farmers.

poor effort Australia

left to NZ to carry the NRL crowd numbers

 

[Rebound]

It's nothing but blue skies in Auckland, I hope the Warriors vs Manly game can crack the 40k mark

 

[Bananabender]

The Raiders game looked just as dismal as the weather...otherwise Im sure they would have pulled good crowd figures.
Hope BunniesMan is right with a 30K crowd on Monday night...

 

[Pazza]

It's a shame cause today in Sydney its clear blue skies

 

[otori]

I know a good 10-12 people that went to the pub instead of going to the Raiders game due to the weather. As a non-Raiders supporter, I can't justify freezîng my nuts off in the wet at that Soviet looking mess of a stadium

 

[Raiderdave]

Cowboys crowd looked bigger then 16K

Raiders crowd was fantastic considering
seriously you couldn't see 10m in front of you at times the rain was that heavy
its still raining here ... 26 hours straight

the Penrith crowd was poor considering the rain wasn't that bad up there & the dogs tipped in several thousand fans

lets hope they close the gates at leichardt this arvo
& Eden park gets the 40K plus their hoping for

although 45 minutes out the crowd is only about 15K :?

lets hope they start streaming in.........
