Here are a few more pictures. Note the corner areas of the 'straight' stand are further away from the ground because the stand isnt curved like the ground. This is why these small sections near the light towers have few fans. The stands immediately adjacent to these areas are pretty packed because they are closer to the ground.

I only psted them to prove pussy wrong after he said the ground was half empty. I dont care that there was only 10k there. Funny thing is the NRL have had 5 worse crowds already this season in their own heartland

Not with games that have been known about for 1 year with millions spent on promotion.
AFL had 1 year to get a good crowd in China and this was the result lol..

As for heartland crowds. AFL can't even get a crowd at it's international cup in Melbourne. :wink: :cool:

You think planning a game 1 year in advance would make a difference in China? :(/

How'd the NRL go in Perth yesterday after planning their only game for the year?

The AFL in Australia get better crowds than anything international NRL can throw up

The NRL has had a test match sellout in Perth between the Kangaroos and Kiwis with less than half the promotion AFL had in China.

Just face it lol.. AFL NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL HAVE INTERNATIONAL APPEAL. :lol: :lol:

No matter how hard AFL tries, no other country gets into their sport. :mrgreen:

Americans couldnt care less about the lack of gridiron overseas. I agree with them. I live in Australia, where the AFL is the number one sport by a country mile. Why would i care if the game expands in countries where I dont live?

Gridiron is massive in Canada too with their own professional league.
