Crowd Watch 2014 part 3

[WaznTheGreat]

Second time this season Souths played a home game at ANZ on the same weekend that Parramatta played a game at ANZ and both times they got pwned crowd wise

Eels > Souths

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Eels/Tigers 50,688 > Souths/Doggies 43,255

Doggies/Eels 24,012 > Souths/Tigers 20,721


Souths can't hang with the Eels,not in our league,ANZ Stadium is Parra's turf

24012

If there was 24,000 today then there was 30,000 on Friday night.

 

[CC_Roosters]

That's about what I expected.

If it was not on a Sunday arvo might not have cracked 20k.

Sunday crowds in general have hardly been great this year

Let's compare home crowd averages at the end of the season.

 

[RWB]

If there was 24,000 today then there was 30,000 on Friday night.

2nd tiers seemed to be well populated.

Sidelines did seem to be quite scarce though.

Hard to tell when the crowd is as scattered as it was today.

Penrith crowd - poor

Roosters crowd - depressing

13,768 at Penrith isn't poor. It isn't fantastic either, given how the team are going. This might have drawn a bit better as the 7.30 game.

 

[BlueandGold]

That's about what I expected.

If it was not on a Sunday arvo might not have cracked 20k.

Sunday crowds in general have hardly been great this year

The weather was overcast and freezing forecast to rain, and multiple players from both teams missing, not a bad crowd considering those circumstances.

¿Qué?

 

[Billythekid]

Horrible scheduling. Missed opportunity for two 40-50K crowds. Just dumb by us really.

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

24k for a Origin effected game is ok. At full strength would of been 30-40k potentially with both teams in the 8. That's Origin messing with the high drawing fixtures, Origin 2 better be worth it for this week's crowd sacrifices.

 

[Perth Red]

The schedulers at the NRL suck! Every Friday night and Sunday afternoon outside of origin stand down weekends should feature the biggest Sydney v Sydney games. That's 46 games. The stand down origin games should be v out of town teams which always draw sub 20k anyway.

How hard can it be?

Yeah nah, this was a Dogs home game bro, sorry.

Also - Dogs and Souths both average shitloads more than Parramatta in terms of crowds.

 

[Clifferd]

So is SOO officially a sell out yet or?

 

[franklin2323]

Just checked up coming draw

Looks like table topping panthers will be playing a game at Bathurst in a few weeks

Panthers finally get a chance of 20k + crowds

And they take a home game to freakin Bathurst

Wow

Bathurst chose the game they wanted. If we can end up around 13k average crowd given the draw, Timeslots etc it's a good effort

 

[Timmah]

I'd love to know how a game against a near or actual last placed Sharks would draw in 20k....

 

[franklin2323]

Regional NSW towns are not the answer ?

$100k guaranteed probably only the Parra game will match that revenue wise

 

[Valheru]

The roosters crowd was poor but this always happens in origin. It won’t get any better for our next home game which is the same time slot against the Sharks minus origin players.

 

[Big Sam]

2 days on and rorter fans still can't admit they have the most undedicated fans in Australian sport.

 

[Valheru]

We have a good record of attending games played in October, souffs fans do not ;-)
