crowd watch 2014 part IV

[The Voice of Reason!]

I will be there with bells on tomorrow. And I will spend a few minutes thinking about the Aus v GB 1999 game I went to when the old Lang Park was all but empty. How far we've come.

Yep. I was there that night. It was a friday night I think the crowd was 12k ir something and Australia flogged them.

This was only a year or two after super league.

7 years prior to 1999 we had a GB tour of Australia where the Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne tests were all sold out and 10,000 strong GB 'balmy army' travelled to watch the games.

IMO test work better on a Saturday night or Sunday arvo. Friday night matches for tests just feel rushed whereas you can soak up the atmosphere for weekend games.

Great crowd, this should shut up a few so-called sports experts that have a thing against (international) RL

 

[Billythekid]

Should be a great crowd. Lets hope the matches deliver.

Sadly it's mostly the league 'experts' who spend the most time trying to talk down and ruin International RL.

Plodstralians have answered the call after the Haynetrain said they don't support International League,the Haynetrain tops Forbes list of most influential people.

So an international game of league will get a bigger crowd and higher tv ratings than the bledisloe which is the pinnacle of rugby union in australia.

 

[Panther_Daz]

Hopefully a good portion of the 47k show up for the first game.

The Kangaroos usually outrate wobbalies.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

only plots of 2 or 3 available in Bronze, then we are down to restricted view only across all categories.

Strange that restricted view are still the same pricing.

Probably 48k sold now.

I reckon there will be no more than 25k for the first game. I hope they don't all leave for the second, I hate a patchy looking stadium, haha.

Last Test got 1.6m compared to the wallabies who would be lucky to crack 700k against the Allblacks.

Looks like more than 25k in.

 

[Brutus]

40k at least in for Eng v Samoa.

Great game.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Yeah increadible.

Friggen stadium members are empty!! Show yourselves! Pricks.

 

[Chook Norris]

Started slow, but built up pretty quick. Solid turnout and good support for the first game
