Majority of the crowd being ex pat Kiwis living in Melbourne like every year the Storm play the Warriors.

Re: The damning truth behind the AFL's western sydney failure.
Same lines were used against my club in the early 90s with constant calls for the Swans to fold, no crowds, no members or juniors blah blah, and yet look now… the Swans are easily the biggest sporting club in NSW.leeroy*NRL* wrote: Thu Apr 09, 2026 6:00 pm
apparently the numbers are correct for Sydney's west numbers.. but they were the figures for 2 to 3 weeks ago.
GWS (Vietnam) how much more can they possibly burn..
all the gains are being poured into northern clubs
while neglecting Southern clubs (nice going)![]()

Terrible makingdumnormal. On another note the Storm have sold out Saturdays game against the Warriors in Melbourne. Seems no one cares what makingshitup says lolololololol!!!!!!!!!!!
The Storm are still a long way behind the Lions and swans, some what closer to Suns and Giants levels in popularity and crowd levels even with all that success. So good on them for getting close every once in a while for coming close in selling out a game,
That one Victorian playing must feel proud of that occasional support
Yeah, I know its terrible makingstupideasy. On the up side they've got more than 97 13 year old kids playing Rugby League in good 'ol Melbon. Seems like GWS are the worst sports club in the land by a very big margin pal. Even AFL types are turning on 'em.
