the mod trying to be fair and not come across as bias
the crowd was shit, they got more last year.
to what the bumsniffers tell us their gsme is number 1
this was going to be a sell out 80k,
discount tickets of $20 per person $ $50 per family of 4

100 plus years of history the best side of the NRL season the roosters, vs the biggest side south sydney, with the highest membership & crowd average of the H&A season.
their side playing for a spot on the GF being played in Australia largest capital city of Shitney 4.5 million!
and this is all that bothered to show up.
all of those invisible fans out there in TV land, failed to show up again
the game of NRL is in big trouble

$20 tickets??? point me to them and i woulda saved a lot of money.
me and my mates, with student concessions and the 'rushhour' promo discount, got the family tickets for $95 because they dont check if you're a kid or not, to save money.
crowds were okay, but with two sydney finals 100k between them is probably about right as the neutrals are split. People expecting 70k were off their heads, roosters and panthers are small sydney clubs. The other 70k crowds had big crowd pullers like the dragons, dogs, eels, tigers etc.
110k would have been a good aggregate, but 100k is fine.
