Crowd Watch 2014 part 3

[insert.pause]

Pretty embarrassing for the other clubs, particularly those in nsw, when the biggest crowd of the round comes from a state that doesn't even have a team.

Now if WA was admitted into the competition what would be the highest draws over there.
High: Souths, Warriors, Broncos & Storm.
Provided WA face those 4 teams annually they should average 15k+ aleast.

and seen the recently poor crowds at gosford... only poor one at perth was this year in absolutely torrential rain. and from memory they still put up 12k

Was a brilliant crowd for the conditions!

 

[Dogs Of War]

They've ignored sellouts on the Central Coast for many years So I'd say yes, the NRL certainly are capable of ignoring this.

I remember all the sellouts that the Gold Coast got before they had a team. Those people has dissapeared.

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

WA: 20,267. New ground record at nib stadium.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

WA: 20,267. New ground record at nib stadium.

Rugby League has set a ground record in WA. Let that sink in.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

What genius schedules a local derby in wollongong ??

There is only 2 games a year that St Geo has to rule out the gong...

Anzac day and the sharks game...

How hard is it

 

[Canard]

WA: 20,267. New ground record at nib stadium.

Just not even trying to attract a NRL team with that poor turn out.

 

[Jason Maher]

I laugh even harder at the plodding crowds from last night. Dragons-Sharks should have been the smallest crowd of the round.

 

[Yosemite Sam]

That's 3 years in a row now the Dragons have played their derby in Wollongong. If there's one game that should be at Kogarah every year this is it.

Great crowd in Perth though.

 

[BunniesMan]

Good crowd in Perth. Bad in Wollongong and the GC.

 

[Perth Red]

Just back from nib, another brilliant night for RL in WA. Big crowd , great atmosphere, entertaining game, ground record broken for second year in a row. Nothing more we can do to convince the NRL to give us a club. Time to expand or accept mediocrity.

 

[Sydney Knight]

We obviously need a second NZ team based in WA

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Will the Bunnies share the database of WA members with the Pirates ??

If they were to come in

 

[guyver78]

Good crowd in Perth.

I still did see a few noticeable empty seat patches here and there so the stadium must be higher capacity then the 20500 that's reported.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Awesome crowd in Perth

 

[Perth Red]

I still did see a few noticeable empty seat patches here and there so the stadium must be higher capacity then the 20500 that's reported.

Yeh we was discussing that at the ground, a few gaps in south stand and lower north. Reckon real capacity is around 23,000.

I doubt it but as soon as announcement is made they will be in a position to promote membership etc at the games leading up to admission. The NRL would also have access to the ticket database I would think and can share this with the pirates.

If it was in our financial interest we would.

I dont recall seeing any empty seats at all last year, I was surprised last night was bigger. Maybe some no-shows?
