Is that just Ai … or did a few more people show up?
Some people left after the first game, but definitely more people arrived for the 2nd game. Crowd's more vocal this game too. Possible that a few hours in the sun and a few lemonades have contributed a bit to that.

The first game crowd look a bit worriesome.If there is a positive announcement all will be forgotten.
Come to think of it , the Swans in their early days were getting crap crowds at the SCG , then SL opened up a golden gate for them.

Not great but not completely terrible. In previous years the double header has been the only NRL event in Perth that year, this year there is Origin & a HBF Park game as well all within a couple months so I can understand a drop even without the negative media in the lead up.

I still think Perth Bears should be looking at a game at Optus every year if/when they come in. Try and get a big event game happening from the start.

Anzac Day if the fumblers don’t or after it finishes if they do eg 7 pm Perth

Yeh either of those could work. Anzac Day is pretty chockers already maybe play it on WA day public holiday. If not a long weekend an AFL free round would be best.
