hard to know the crowd figures for tonights games.
only fits 15k at Hindmarsh.
you would think it would be a sell out>>


I don't expect big tv numbers.

10,253 crowd tonight in Adelaide and commentators suggesting 20,000 tickets sold for tomorrow night in Melbourne.

TV ratings will be interesting to see. Doubt they’ll be huge though for a new version of game with very little promotion and up against ratings juggernauts like MKR, Winter Olympics etc.

Judging what I saw last night> it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
I think AFLX will stick around>
the only question is

when is the right time to play it.. and how big can it get..

As I said Beau, add some Benny Hill music and the AFL could be looking at the smash hit comedy hit of the year

They sure nailed the entertainment at the freak show last night lololololololol!!!!!!!

I love AFL but I thought AFLX was pretty crap.

I put it on for 10 mins & had to turn it off. Like womens footy its just not that good.

I cant wait for the real stuff to start in 6 weeks though

I wonder if the Storm v Leeds game tonight can out rate and outdraw the AFLX game
which consists of 6 Melbourne AFL clubs..

Looks like the WCC game is on the Ch9 main channel in Melbourne while the Xmess is on the Ch7 secondary channel. The WCC will win the overall ratings but it will be interesting to see how the Storm go against the Xmess in Melbourne.

Is this on again next week
Seeing as tickets were free for anyone who wants them this week, I have a brilliant idea for Gill .

Pay people to go next week .
Yes it might cost you but look at the propaganda benefits .
The brainwashed cult members will lap up the "SUCCESS STORY" ...& as you know Gill
They love a feelgood afl conquering the world story .

Lol this was on an AFL forum .
That's no way to treat circus FREAKS.

yes the Winter Olympics will affect both games>
but the R.L game should triple it>>

I am like you interested in the Melbourne figures...

I think thehe figures in Melbourne will be:

WCC - 95,000
AFLX - 70,000

Decent sized crowd in attendance tonight at Etihad Stadium. Crowd seems to be enjoying the on field action too.

Oh fukk this threads starting to get hilarious! jolly good work all and sundry. And leeroy, well done starting this thread nice and early, jolly good foresight
