they literally had no media presence, spotlight or coverage.
and still managed 30k and 59k on TV
LIONS got very limited coverage across radio, print and digital media in QLD when compared to the Brisbane Derby
which prob outnumbered it 10,000 to 1
i will say if you looked at numbers across the board.
this game generated more attention awareness than the LIONS will receive the entire H&A Season

Re: Crowds - 2023
Good crowd though I’d say. Certainly not a strong sense re : crowd noise - plenty for both sides. Just went for a walk - decent size crowd with the big stand well patronaged.

Re: Crowds - 2023

3 words never used ever by anyone at a Midgets game at Homebush
but...
" it looked bigger "
9,691
maybe after the laughing & chortling & head shaking by anyone with functioning eyes after the attendance announced for rnd 1 ,
they've decided to post " actual" crowds now ?
