Epic :lol: Just like a tabloid journalist you seem to do your best to pick the out the meat and leave the bones. I've stated my opinion on here multiple times regarding the Dragons/home ground situation - I don't agree with the Telegraph's ongoing campaign and I don't believe it's the Dragons fault. It's the NRL's fault for creating the situation and not acting on it much earlier than a week before due to media pressure. But don't let that get in the way of a good public reaming ;-)What figures have I not got right?
Were there more 21,000 at Homebush? Did any game in Sydney get more than 25,000 last weekend?
I'm curious if you actually have anything to back up whatever it you're trying to say. Or maybe you're looking to have an argument just for the sake of it. So out of character Timmah.
It seems that you still think the scribblings of gossip columnists and the tabloid media are in some way related to 'facts'.
As for your numbers, 21,000 + 59,000 = 80,000. ANZ has had a capacity of 83,500 from memory, since it's reconfig was finalised in 2003. Not a big difference but still of note. So the figure you were after was actually around the 62,000 mark.
Even so, it eclipsed Sunday's crowd by 3,000...
