Crowd Watch 2014 part 3

[El Diablo]

so what was the crowd?

Wests Tigers @Wests_Tigers

47?? Crowd announced: 13,432. #nrlmanwst

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Parra got 50k against the Tigers if my memory serves me correctly thus it would mean Manwhee need to find 38k more people if they want to challenge that next time,you hang in there Manwhee,i believe,good things come to those who plod.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Oh phew only 3,000 below the average of the whole comp

Let's all pop champagne

 

[El Diablo]

go follow another sport you flog

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

Manly top of the table and only 13k. All that success and only 13k.

Cumberland: any suggestions to improve crowds?

 

[Big Sam]

undertsand but it does explain why some games draw a lot less than membership numbers for some clubs eg Souths. I guess it depends on what you see the value of knowing what membership numbers are. If we are using them to judge the benefit to crowds, mentioned many times that increasing memberships will increase crowds, that would only be a relevant factor if people are buying full memberships which the majority are not.

I've said for a while that clubs and the NRL should have 2 trackers for memberships and full season ticket holders.

For example we have 30k members, but only around 17k of those are ANZ season ticket holders.

13.5K isn't the worst for Brookie against a Tigers team who's traveling average to below average at the moment...

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Yeah here's some ideas

Try actually lobbying the government to get some f**king money spent on stadiums

Afl are playing tonight in a brand new stadium that basically has sold out every game since opening

A roof on sfs and a 5 year plan to play there every single week and you will get 30k averages on Friday even when manly play Penrith

But u need to commit to it. And not let TV stations choose every single game

Call everyone the Eels, and they play in Blue and Gold strips.

Parramatta Eels,
Canterbury Eels
Melbourne Eels
Canberra Eels
Cronulla Eels
Gold Coast Eels

etc

50k average guaranteed.

And Manly would burn down this new SFS before the NRL could force them to play there.

Is it possible to give out 16 wooden spoons?

 

[Kurt Angle]

One for each person in the crowd of a Roosters home game?

 

[Perth Red]

Raise the cap to $10mill. Clubs will soon realise they will need to increase their fanbase if they want to survive. The current situation supports mediocrity.

lol, sure. Manly play Penrith on a Friday night at the SFS in front of 30k? :lol:

One for each person in the crowd of a Roosters home game?

Nah, just to keep count of how many tries we put on Eels sides at our home games.

 

[oldmancraigy]

Parramatta Eels,
Canterbury Eels
Melbourne Eels
Canberra Eels
Cronulla Eels
Gold Coast Eels

etc

50k average guaranteed.

What an idiotic comment.

You need half the teams to be called the Tigers to get that 50k average!!

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Reds are an epic fail and they are heading for 40,000plus tonight v tags.

Wowzers.

Makes the high-flying tahs crowds look pahhhhthetic.

 

[CC_Roosters]

15 k at each game today sounds reasonable.

Cannot wait until next Saturday to get to the 3pm game at allianz v Penrith. That is the day and time sport should be played.
