Im comparing Newcastle to the Swans ... not CanberraTLPG wrote:Stop exaggerating. I never said that and you know I never said that. The reality is that Canberra's support of NRL is in big trouble. Comparing it to Newcastle is like comparing a church service in an athiest town to a union meeting in a coal mine!Raiderdave wrote:Constant Rain in Newcastle tooBeaussie wrote:Constant rain on the same day in Sydney yet a crowd of over 23k turned out to see the Swans play a lowly supporter interstate team in Fremantle. That's more than double the turnout in Canberra where it didn't rain. Again, where are all the Raiders fans?
a city an 9th of the size of Sydney .... & the Knights drew a crowd the same size as the Swans
the only sporting event in Sydney's east miles from the rugby test .. no other NRL in town ... & according to TLPG theres 41,000 AFL clubs in NSW per sq mile ... yet a city with 4 million less people had the same sized crowd turn up to watch their NRL side .. as Sydneysiders to watch their AFL side
tell me .... when you let me know where all the Swans fans were on Sunday
I'll let you know where the Raiders fans were
K
how 's that example going for the Swans
If Beaussie wants to pick on Raiders crowds
he needs to explain the swans woeful turnout aswell .... doesn't he ?
