Crowd Watch 2013

[Brutus]

Good Sharks crowd.

At least 18k.

 

[Big Sam]

Definitely more today then the Parramatta Eels got yesterday (Both playing NZ teams also)

Wanderers got 15,809

 

[CC_Roosters]

Consistantly playing on a Friday night doesnt help, Brisbane officials have stated this. A few more Sunday afternoon games would help bump them up a tad

Broncos have pulled crowds around 25k for past Sunday arvo games. They are just rubbish bandwagon fans up there

Wanderers got 15,809

Fap fap fap fap fap fap fap........

Cronulla: 17,541. Great work by Sharks supporters to show up in a dire time for the club.

 

[Misanthrope]

Wanderers 1st game of season 10,458
Eels 1st game of season 13,351


Eels win

Do you mean:

Wanderers first game ever 10,458
Eels whatever number+th game 13,351

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

So there was 10k at Penrith today, but only 13k at Parra last night.

Rightttttt

17.5k against a traditional low drawing team is a great result for the sharkies.

Hopefully the win sees them all return next home game along with a few thousand cuzzy bros supporting the warriors.

Well done sharks fans, your club needs you now more than ever, stick with them. Usual mix of ok and disappointing crowds for rd1.

 

[Frailty]

Storm: 16,251

I was in the Melbourne CBD today, and the amount of storm jerseys, shirts, and hats I saw roaming around the city when the game was on I would have thought the game was sold out.

They need to take advantage of the fan base down there that aren't going to games.

I simply can not understand people who call themselves fans of a club and don't go to watch them play. Makes no sense to me.

I think we have a false perception of support for the Broncos.

There is a huge bandwagon contingent but also many fans that turn up to games are not Broncos supporters. Just in my section and view I saw a person in a Warriors jersey, a Parramatta jersey, a Dragons jersey and oddly enough a person in a Roosters jersey with a Storm cap on....

I think Brisbane is a RL city, with a single team that benefits from that. We have a huge number of bandwagoners and a lot of success in the last 25years to keep that rolling.

But at the end of the day we average 35k a game and that is money in the bank for my club, you guys can bitch all you want that it is disappointing but any team in the comp would kill for our situation.

The only thing i bitch about brisbane is their treatment from channel 9 and from i hear from the majority of brisbanes fans (albeit only from the Sydney fans and the fans on here) dont like it either.

Pretty sure the vast majority of people Frailty saw in the CBD wearing Storm jerseys and things would've been at the game. No doubt he saw plenty but i highly doubt it was 16,000 odd.....

 

[Teddyboy]

Good crowd for the sharks but pretty crap from the Melbourne lot...makes me think the attitude in Melbourne is different from Sydneysiders.
Lol at the so called Wanderers sell out but just think Penrith so move now.

Aside from cronulla did any Sydney team have more home fans at a game this weekend than Melbourne had? Maybe sth's and that's it. Double standards?

13k tomorrow at Hunter (almost certain you'd think) will see this year's R1 eclipse last years.

Last year had two sub-10k's in pouring rain though.

 

[DIOGENES]

That would still make it 2nd lowest rd 1 since 2005 (and beaten by 1995 and 1999). I thought the NRL tried to put a few blockbusters on for Rd 1 but with the possible exception of souths v easts there was much of an attraction this week.
