32,000 at scg doesn't look like that - empty seats all over the place.
Should've gone to spec savers Angelo. :cool:

You Leaguers have neither the credentials nor the right to make a call on crowds larger than about 15k.
Please remember this moving forward. [-o<

I agree that the leaguers should be experts in counting empty seats.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.

I forgot to add that the highest attending game in Sydney this round was the Swans, 15,000 higher than the highest NRL game, not bad for a side that is not travelling all that well this year, and the disruptions next door. Storm were well down in Melbourne.
Swans number was a lie.
Got proof thickshit?

If you were an afl making those claims about an nrlol game you would have tf circus freak regulars crapper, fearless leader loopy Leroy etc in a melting fit with Leroy in a fit handing out warnings!

Despite the little code of nrlolw long long life g history of :^o :^o :^o exaggerating numbers

When it comes to crowds......
The NRL is clearly less than half as popular as the "world's least popular sport".

Serious question. When you say Swans are team of the elite do you think they (afl) have stepped into the void left by RU.

I also wonder whether this afl v rl thing that we see mainly in the rl states is due to their being a culture of competition between rl and ru over the years as to which is better ‘, bigger etc. with ru no longer really in the race has afl also stepped into that void?
AFL has most certainly taken a share out of Rugby union> what percentage would be interesting..

i think the battle between League & Union is more in ENGLAND than it is here.

no
the afl might have small chunk
the league would have definable picked up its fair share of union fans due to being a simplified direct rip off of the game

Many former Rugby fans are now AFL fans. I know quite a few regulars at SCG Swans games.

Feel sorry for the Waratahs actually.
But one intriguing subplot in the war for football supremacy that is less discussed is the battle between Australian rules and rugby union that is playing out in parts of Sydney.

Yet, while the AFL has undeniably made inroads into rugby's turf at a grassroots level, it's in the professional realm where it is has really pulled away.

The Swans average attendances, TV ratings and memberships long ago surpassed those of the Waratahs and now completely dwarf them. And the eastern suburbs and north shore (as well as the Hills district and Sutherland shire) are among the strongest areas for Swans members and fans, according to membership data viewed by the Herald.
