Should be no excuses on part of the NRL. it's up to them to market it and they shoot themselves in the foot with the structure of origin and club games over such a long period mid-season.

but the fans have legitimate excuses, just one of being the absence of 3 of the best players from the game.

deliver second rate product, and folks pay their money to do something else.

16k, Good crowd at ANZ.

But that Parra-Penrith crowd is the most dissappointing crowd of the season.

The Panthers are doing well and surprising everybody, yes Parra sucks but this is a local rivalry game in the heartiest of heart lands. Not good enough.

Not half as disappointing as some of lol@souffs crowds this year. Drew 32k against Melbourne (who have no traveling support) to show the sort of crowd you should be drawing, then followed that up with shockers against the Cowboys, Tigers, Knights, and Raiders.

Solid but unspectacular crowd. Unlike Souths we didn't have the benefit of being in such good form but it was good to get that win on the board.

Hoping for 25k minimum Friday week vs Eels.

And unlike Souths you had the benefit of a Sunday afternoon home game at ANZ.

16k is a bit underwhelming. Not sure you can blame it on SOO since the Dogs fans wouldn't really give a stuff as to whether Smith, Cronk, and Slater were playing.

Bulldogs played them in Mackay last year for a reason. Just don't draw a crowd. 16k isn't too bad

Bulldogs vs Cowboys - 11k
Knights vs Cowboys - 15.7k
Warriors vs Cowboys - 10k
Eels vs Cowboys - 9k
Souths vs Cowboys - 15.9k
Titans vs Cowboys - 13k
Dragons vs Cowboys - 9k
Raiders vs Cowboys - 10k

But yeah, shocking crowd vs Cowboys. :lol:

First time Dogs have hosted Storm at ANZ (excluding GF) since 2007.

Also the first time we've actually beaten them there today too.

How many of those teams are leading the comp with 27k members? Your crowds suck, stop trying to deny it.

Parramatta and Penrith only get good crowds when they play in Penrith.

It was actually 50/50 crowd split. Certain things wrong with Parra stadium which is why people don't go. All were proven again on Sat night. Though should of been more Parra fans there.

It was 50/50 fans wise. Plenty of Panthers fans refuse to go too Parra.

Just some things from Sat night. My brother was told junior passes weren't allowed for Northern Terrace yet Parra fans used there's.
Coke in a paper cup yet water was in the bottle pay $5.20 to spill a drink stuff that.
Away bay 70. Ticketek says $30 a mate got there $37 on the gate.
I can see why people refuse to go there.

As for Parra fans worst team by far. Hard to watch for all fans.

Everyone knows the price is jacked up at the gate.
