Sydney Crowds

[LeagueXIII]

By introducing a second Kiwi team we could have a 12pm game every week if need be.

But isnt the point of having more Sunday games is so that we can accomodate Sydney clubs for increasing crowds?

However, if we did introduce another NZ team, we could have a 12pm kick off (Aus time) for the Fox game and then at 2pm and 4pm have 2 Sydney home games. (hopefully on 9). And we could even have a 4th game on Sunday if we use my previous idea for the 4pm time slot.

12pm - Fox - National - NZ team vs Raiders (LIVE)
2pm - Fox - National - Knights vs Storm (LIVE)
4pm - Nine - NSW - Eels vs Sea Eagles
4pm - Nine - Qld - Titans vs Cowboys
6pm - FOX - NSW - Titans vs Cowboys (replay)
6pm - FOX - Qld - Eels vs Sea Eagles (replay)

Yeah, im gonna keep pushing this idea. Potientially 4 sunday games, 3 in Sydney.

25% of Sydney games are during the day. The league should be at least attempting or heaven forbid planning to address the balance, at least 65-70% day matches in Sydney.

Or make the 2nd NZ team play 3pm Saturday.
Is 4 games in one day overload?

Back in 95 and 98 I remember "around the grounds" on the radio coverage went to up to four grounds an afternoon, there used to be plenty of Saturday arvo footy.
