According to http://www.northernpride.com.au/barlow-park/ Barlow Parks capacity is approx 15,000.

I was there when they had the ground record of 17k (from memory) for a preseason game between the Cowboys and the Storm in 2005.

The grandstand, for reference, was behind us.

Crowds are poor. I was thinking during the game that most Friday night games pre-Super League were close to sell outs and now we get sub 10K crowds..

There should be one Friday night game to make it more of an event.

Certain teams don't draw well on certain days, next season the NRL and their fancy draw software needs to sort this out. An example is Roosters shouldn't have home games on Sundays, but Manly should. Canberra should be afternoon games from April, NQ shouldn't play home games until after the wet season finishes and during long weekends the Monday game should be an arvo game.

Game from Wollongong has just come on

Atmosphere effect on my lounge room -100%

It nearly physically hurts my eyes to watch a game in front of such a sparce hill

When you can see kids playing footy on the hill in the background, does someone at the nrl think to themselves " are we really a top level sport in this country "
