Crowd Watch, Part III

[BunniesMan]

Bunnies fans are dreaming as well if they think round 26 will be over 40k. The code has a lot of work to do regarding ticketing, scheduling and gameday experience. I suggest everyone fills in the survey sent out to all members regarding the gameday

Easts dropping a game this week or next week would be considered a service to rugby league.

If round 26 is a minor premiership playoff it'll get over 50,000

 

[elbusto]

9000 more than Gosford ...

Pretty ordinary

I blame Gosford for getting such a good crowd. Bloody Gosford!

Who are Penriths main draw cards?? f**king woeful shit! WW to buy Penriff?

Da Parramatta Seal and the Wests Derps

On a Friday night in Sydney no it won't

Wests v Penrith got about 9000 this year

I'm moving to Melbourne soon. I'll be going to any good Storm games and contributing to their crowd averages.

You'll never leave mum's basement you numpty

29000 is a shit, shit crowd for that match up.

 

[CC_Roosters]

considering what souths for against Melbourne the whole thing is a bit bizarre

 

[CowboyFuriousFury]

29k between two of the biggest clubs in nrl is bad should be 35k min consider the size of both supporter bases.

Are we sure that Souths v roosters won't get booted off ANZ for a swans final ?

I don't think it will but if the game was to get moved to Saturday that would be a good thing for crowds.

 

[Billythekid]

Arguably the 2 biggest clubs in Sydney both having a good year (souths in particular). Sure it isn't as bad as the Penrith crowd but it's the more disappointing of the 2 because you hope more from such a matchup.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Tonight's crowd was like 98% Souffs and 2% Doggies

I emailed the NRL inquiring about that and also week 1 of the finals. They assured me NRL has first rights in both round 26 and also week 1 of the finals when the Swans are a chance to have a home final

Hand on my heart - there wouldn't have been more than 8k Bulldogs supporters there tonight. I've never seen a poorer 'Dogs turnout for a match against us - they usually out number us quite easily.

 

[RWB]

29k is really disappointing... not having a crack here at any club but it would've been nice to get a massive crowd and have it plastered all over the Newspapers tomorrow morning.

Free transport, entry for season ticket holders of both sides (with large membership bases), reasonable weather conditions & 2 v 5 on the table.

Questions need to be asked why there was such a low crowd for a game that deserved so much more. There's quite clearly a deeper issue and it seems to be a re-occurring issue this year with a lot of highly anticipated games resulting in underwhelming crowds.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

I will say this, the disabled blokes having a crack in the half-time footy match didn't look like they gave two-f**ks what the crowd was tonight.

Bravo to them.

Thoroughly entertaining half time match.

And sometimes, RL just does something right.

Anyway...as we were. Crowds...

I'm moving to Melbourne soon.

What the f**k de we do to deserve that?

 

[BunniesMan]

No idea why the people of Melbourne are so lucky. I'll be adding to your crowds next season and pumping a few hundred dollars into your club every year.
