AFL/NRL Easter Monday Crowds

AFL - Collingwood v Western Bulldogs Official crowd: 53,259 at MCG. NRL - South Sydney v Canberra Official Crowd: 14,455 at Aussie Stadium. :(/ What's going on? Where are all the Souths fans? They won last week too and there was no FTA TV coverage in Sydney. Dismal turnout but to be expected for th...

LOL I got banned doing the same thing as you thinking that I would get away with it. But rampantswan, who is a cats fan decided on exposing my plan. So now I am ...

Re: Buckley Breaks Down Again

Is this the end of Bucks? The Wobbles sure could have used him in the latter stages of the game against the Bulldogs today. To me he seems very injury prone. your kidding right? i carnt see it in any reports. I take it you didn't catch the game on TV today? Collingwood captain Nathan Buckley did no...

And beaussie you must be joking about financial stresses disadvantaging clubs. The western bulldogs are under financial stress and will prob move in the next few years. This will disadvantage the club in that they have to start all over again in a new place and the thousands of supporters who will ...

:oops:
Did you travel up for the game? I know it's only round 1 but taking into account Hawthorn's pre-season form and yesterday's result, it could well be a long frustrating season for Hawks fans.

Now you've got me all confused who you were thinking of. I was thinking Mark Rudd. :oops: As for Big Footy, well f***, wouldn't it be great to have as many members as them posting each day. You can't even put a link up there to other sites without being warned or banned. Guys, I might be new here b...

AFL/NRL Tips

Scores have now been updated for Round 3 in the NRL and Round 1 in the AFL. Looks like I had a shocker in both comps. Still leading the NRL comp though, well only just. I've been able to add the pick the margin for the AFL comp. Not sure what that means for those late entrants who had already entere...

Beaussie I dont know about 14000 being an all time record? Are you including ARL crowds in this? It was the NRL H&A avearge from memory. ARL crowds huh, they're hardly specatacular in anycase. Anyway this thread has reminded me of an article I read in the telegraph last year about how afl had b...

Although I am, or was, keen to learn more about AFL (as I am fairly new to the sport itself I must admit), this sort of attitude doesn't sit well with me. It appears that the only sporting organisation that feels the need to publicaly draw battle lines and make comparisons with other major sports i...

My point is this guy seems to be reliving his years at 'nam. Problem is there is no real footy code war going on beaussie its all a figment of yours, others who read the telegraph, and Demetriou's imaginations. The thing that both of you turkeys dont understand is that Australians love lots of spor...

To be honest crocodileman, I personally wouldn't see any massive benefits for the NRL by adding 26,000 (that is the total amount of these tickets given away for Telstra Stadium matches) to their total attendence figures to boost the competition average. Last year 2,640,809 people attended home and ...

Yeah, I wasn't 100% certain about the free-tickets issue when I posted about it some days back. However, I have found that the free-tickets offered through the competition or promotion that Beaussie posted in another thread are not included in official attendence results. This is because the ticket...
