What was the crowd for game 2?

[Azkatro]

Anyone know? I can't find it reported anywhere.

 

[League Freak™]

Mostly Kiwi's.

 

[carlnz]

i was there and it look a hell of a lot more than the Warriors last home game which was 17,000. So at a guess im saying 20-22,000.

HANG YOUR HEADS IN SHAME SYDNEY!

 

[steaming stormer]

didn't Sydney still get more Carlnz???

 

[League Freak™]

Yes, we did.

 

[carlnz]

didn't Sydney still get more Carlnz???

Sydney = 4m population
Auckland = 1m population

And Sydney gets 6-8,000 more people........

Hmmmmm yeah

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

So...the crowd was never officially reported/recorded?

 

[carlnz]

Not That I Know Of Th

It looked larger than many of the Warriors games.. also looked larger than last years tri-nation match in NZ.

 

[steaming stormer]

I agree Carlnz... the Sydney crowd was disgraceful, but when you get a smaller crowd, it's hard to pay out too much is all

Crowd was reported in England as 28,500 : http://www.superleague.co.uk/news/2165

Sounds like it's a guess but it's all anyone can seem to find.

Bartman, is that the same website that reported the Sydney game as 40,000?

Pretty stupid guess too; the seating capacity at Ericsson is 25,000 as far as I'm aware.

 

[bartman]

:lol: Yes, just checked and they reported 40,000 for Sydney. *Mental note, don't trust ESL site as a source for crowd figures*

You'd think an official site wouldn't make stuff up... maybe there's some job vacancies there at the moment?

Hmmmmm yeah

Sydney on a Saturday nite = 43,000 other things to do.

Auckland on a Friday nite = footy and phar call.

Heh, maybe for stamp collectors like you mate.

 

[Moffo]

20,000 bodies
40,000 heads

Maybe the Super league are finally learning a thing or 2 from the English Rugby Union.

Then how come us Roosters cant use that excuse ? LEts face it ... the Eastern Suburbs is where EVERYTHING happens every single day. As a matter of fact, when i was in my 20's i count myself lucky to survive my social life ... there was a party every day !! But you westies wouldnt know about that would you ? Hence the jealousy ;-)
