Please, anyone else in 2021

I guess we’ll see when we have a bigger stadium.

Bunnies have the biggest stadium, it's really done fkall for them

Panthers had more than 20,000 fans at every game except 2. Dragons and Cowboys in Origin affected rounds. Apparently fans aren’t interested in watching our reserve grade team lose.

They obviously dropped the average quiet a lot. But every proper game was basically sold out.

4 premierships in a row and they still can't average 20k a week crowds. Small clubs are small for a reason.

Souths, Dogs, Dragons, Eels would be averaging bigger numbers than the Broncos if we had 4 in a row

Never happen!
Pointless argument!

@BunniesMan you still got some bites with that terrible bait. Imagine how alive this place could become if you recapture some of your old form.

My team hasn’t been good for 20 years and we still averaged 22k this year. Maybe the fans of the ‘big clubs’ should have a crack?

My team has literally never been good and we averaged 23,578.

Bunniesman is a funny fella. 'If we won four in a row' when they finished 16th. Holy hell, how is it possible to be three places worse than us this year? Did you lose points for being so extremely shit? And they lost 34-4 to us. Mighty me. Don't worry about if, worry about how you're going to beat the PNG team in a few years, Mr Bunnies.

Let me preface this comment by being upfront, do I dislike most of the Panthers team because of Origin? Yes. Do I have a soft spot for the Storm because of Origin? Yes. Am I still pissed off that the Broncos choked away a 16 point lead last year? Yes

Ok now that my disclaimer is out of the way, Penrith are obviously a supremely talented side and deserve everything they get but f**k me their style is boring as batshit and I'd be happy to see them take a break from winning premierships for a good decade or so.

I know their fan base will be bigger in the future but currently they are a small club and a small club dominating the NRL does very little for the game as a whole. If this were dogs or Warriors doing a four in a row for example, attendances everywhere would be lifted on the back of it.

They only appear a small club because most of their fans have tipped their Centrelink money into the pokies prior to game day each week. They have lots of fans, they're just mostly the scourge of society and don't really have much to contribute to the game outside of some obnoxious posts on a forum.

This success and the size and youth of their supporter base means they won't be a 'small' club in the future.

Nailed it. So many kids u14 at our games. Much like Parra and Dogs of the 80's, we are 10-20 years away from a huge base
