Crowd Watch 2014

[Dutchy]

Three poor crowds so far.

Lol not knowing the rules

 

[BranVan3000]

This is more exciting

No more then 12,000 at Penrith

 

[Perth Red]

a stadium at parra wont help rugby league that much only a few clubs can use

a new 70k seat stadium in sydney is kinda a pipedream.

sure if the ARLC tried to get one developed and promised to move a lot of club games there it might work one day but that would take 20 years

if we want big crowds before then its homebush and Allianz for big games.y

Anz will not draw regular big crowds. Sure the very rare big game may draw 40k plus but people don't sit at home watching a normal game with 20k rattling around in it going jeez I really wish I was there at that game tonight.

30k parra stadium would suit most games and a suncorp 50k would do for the bigger clubs and the hyped up Sydney Friday night game of the week.

 

[Perth Red]

Official crowd 11369. You were kinda close....................

In the words of their leader,
dear oh dear oh dear.

West Sydney 'heartland' lol.

f**ks sake panthers fans, get out and support your team.

 

[user_nat]

Well.. you know.. Saturday is a bad time for people. Had it been Sunday, 20k+.

 

[hineyrulz]

Penrith have a real competitive side, there are no excuses for such a shit crowd.

 

[Perth Red]

f**ks sake panthers fans, get out and support your team.

They did, again accept that some suburban teams are representing small populations or populations that are diluted in terms of supporting a range of teams and you won't be so disappointed.

Some Sydney teams are moving to be more cross city appealing clubs, others will always be seen as representing a small area and therefore struggle to get over 15k. How that will play out in years to come will be interesting to see.

Ps nice cheerleader outfits Penrith!

FFS. Penrith gets a million valuable day slots and gets such a poor crowd. All because Gus has mates at 9.

Some clubs would be getting 25-30k regular crowds in arvo slots but they're stuck at night in family unfriendly hours.

Like I said earlier in the thread, fans are feeling apathetic after a long summer without a real break from rugby league, was no real time to actually miss the sport before it was back

Panthers embarrassing themselves like usual,whats new.

Serious? just left ground and I reckon close to double last years crowd v knights which they announced 10k. Prob more of an indication that last year was fudged a bit.

Really? How many Panthers fans do you think went to the World Cup, the nines or the club challenge?

To me, it seems to reflect the consistent negative sentiment of NRL Fans on social media regarding referees and the game going 'soft' (re:shoulder charges). Although, I also do think the Auckland 9's tournament has also somehow adversely affected the hype of round 1 matches
