rugby league will have the 4 biggest crowds of 2020
we currently have the 2 biggest .. 37303 for the GF & 37119 for the prelim in Brisbane
origins in Sydney & Brisbane should attract similar sized crowds

the AFL's biggest crowd for 2020 remains 32865 in Perth.

Well yes - Rugby league are renowned for their crowds ....... I would think this year of all years - were there has been forced reduced crowds in all codes - and AFL playing out of mainly QLD, is the year RL do better. God knows there would be issues if they didn't lol. The fact those tow biggest crowds are probably closer to the AFL usual average than they should be says it all. It has been a topsy turvy year no doubt.

To use this years crowd figures for anything other than to demonstrate how badly sport has been affected is....sick, desperate, sad.

Remember most fans were not allowed to attend....therefore attendances were......I’ll let you figure it out

Yes....just not worth counting...and certainly not worth bragging about as it took government control and disease to achieve.

Largest crowds in New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia
Last year, bigger crowds than the AFL in NSW, Qld and Western Australia

Despite all the AFL's constant bragging who has a national comp???????????????????????
Rugby League, the dominant force in Australian sport! :cheers:

I was leaning toward the desperate sales with cheap seats to fill those seats - they do get there in the end - whereas AFL generally hard to get tickets. Whereas Origin - usually a sell-out or near enough - weeks before hand.

Why the change of name again by the way?
