Crowd Watch Thread 2009

[Timmah]

Is 45k to optimistic for fridays double header? Lots of my mates are goin.....

and is this the game that Timmah has been waiting for to skew his Bulldogs average up?

Dogs are highest in the state for crowds last I checked, we're not the ones needing to skew our averages up.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but wasn't it the Bulldogs' idea to take the game north (as they have tried to do with other Queensland teams that don't draw as well down south)?

The Bulldogs have proposed taking their round-19 home game against the Gold Coast Titans to Suncorp Stadium, combining it with the Broncos' clash against South Sydney.
It would be staged on the Friday night, building on the hype of the State of Origin decider at Suncorp two nights earlier.
The Bulldogs will find out on Tuesday if the concept will go ahead, with the NRL and Channel Nine to announce round 19 scheduling.

Either way, great to see that Lang Park is going to be packed twice in the one week. Good look for the NRL.

Vossy said on TFS that there were less than 300 tickets left for the match

There won't be any walk-up crowd because no tickets will be sold on the night... http://www.rleague.com/db/article.php?id=33873

I'm well aware it was the 'Dogs idea, I f**king support them. My point is that while this is good initiative, we're the one club in Sydney for whom it's not absolutely necessary in order to "jack up our averages".

And the official capacity of Suncorp is 52,500 to whoever said 53 :lol:

wish i was there

its hard waiting

I guess it just goes to show your insecurity when you have to bag someone for writting 53 instead of 52. I hope it made you feel REALLY good....you'll need the 'kick' to your self esteem by the looks of it.

Sorry for participating in the thread. Sheesh.:roll:

 

[dogz08]

50k tonight

 

[dgsfan]

What's the dogs average crowd figure now with the 50k added? How do we stack up to the qld teams and othe teams?

 

[DINGb@T]

You guys only get 25k of that crowd- Souths get the other 25k. No double dipping.

 

[dogz08]

I thought it was a Broncos home game not Souths?

 

[Perth Red]

Ha ha Sydney teams will do anything to get there averages up!

 

[DINGb@T]

Nah, it was a Souths home game. That's why they moved it- they'd each get about 10-15,000 each at an empty ANZ down in Sydney so they brought the game up to Brisbane to better their crowd take.
