PAX now up to 17k for the Manly game

so will be over 20K by COB at this rate

lets assume 80% of the stadiums 7K members will attend on Friday
we are at just under 30K already
with junior passes being admitted free again

40K isn't out of the question

Rooster 8th? Hmmmm sh it season and a few rain affected games which badly impacted the crowds.

We still have no supporters though...

Tim Tam do you have an update including finals? Just interested in what the Broncos and Storm finish with so I can give that idiot Fitzimons (from the SMH) a serve.

He was banging on about the Rebels and Reds out averaging the Storm and Broncos earlier in the year. I'm hoping the leaguies won out in the end so I can give it to that drop kick.

I know broncos beat reds (thank god)
Reds average was 29,435

How many home games do the reds play

 

[yakstorm]

Manly v Broncos game must be selling reasonably well, they've opened up the Upper East for the first time at the SFS this Finals Series and are now selling into Bays 51, 50 and 49.

 

[ceagle]

Could we possibly have a sellout on our hands?

Parramatta only pulled a crowd of 15000+ 3 times not including the ANZ games.
It was a poor year for a lot of clubs.

Any news on Melbourne so far Yak?

 

[Sean18]

Does anyone know how Australia v NZ at Newcastle is selling?

 

[Chook Norris]

Could we possibly have a sellout on our hands?

would like to think so, but at this rate looks like 30k will be achieved comfortably. High 30ks and 40k may... may.. be attainable

 

[yakstorm]

Category 1 appears to be selling into the corners of the upper levels, so Melbourne is definitely well ahead of where it was in Week One of the finals.

 

[Moffo]

thank f**k

hold on, are they playing at AAMI?

Cant confirm, but I think I remember an article posted here saying that a sell out is expected.

nothing to do the weather, Qantas and Virgin are putting on extra flights for AFL fans here to get over to melb for next weekends finals game and our weather is nicer than yours, usually. Don't know why some NRL fans are less passionate and more happy to sit at home in front of the TV than some other codes, I am sure someone could write a phd on it! Tickets for Melbournes AFL games next weekend are $40-135 so price isn't the factor either.

For anyone interested...(assuming Perth and Sydney is the comparison here) these two cities are about the same in terms of rainy days, windy days, cold days/nights etc etc during footy season...however Perth would have a few more of the extreme days (due to all the strong cold fronts that slam into the west coast in winter) but Sydney would have some more of those low-mid range 'few showers' type days.

Weather for Syd on Fri and Melb on Sat night is looking good too fingers crossed we'll get two weeks in a row of finals with fine weather at all venues!

I spoke to a guy at Ticketek yesterday and he showed me a map of all the bays sold at the SFS for Fri night. Looks pretty good.

I reckon we're looking at 30k at least.

Locky out.

[dragondad]

As of last night, 19000 sold for Friday and 20000 for Saturday

According to the NRL Marketing Manager's Twitter account.

I think it would be embarassing for Manly as a club to be outdrawn by the Storm.
