18.8k actually. Many free patron I'd suggest.pussycat wrote:19k in Melbourne tonight. Is that a record?
25k in 2010 actually. ANZAC day is also bigger due to a large kiwi population in Melbourne.

Re: Fight Club - Football Crowds Thread
Yeah its amazing what a decent crowd can do for a game. Shame the storm need free tickets for half the crowd to get it.Rabbit wrote:Great crowd for monday night. Looked and sounded great on tv
And if you don't believe there were many free patrons apparently members guests had to sit in the ends, not the sides. Notice how these were the fullest areas?

Re: Fight Club - Football Crowds Thread
Big crowds are a foreign thing for nRL fans. Not that 18k is a good crowd by any means but anyway...

oh rabbits
don't bamboozle them with sense
they'll just fire up the but but but machine & crank out excuse after excuse
the fact is
we are told by these singlet wearing assclowns
that Melb has no interest in RL or the Storm
&
that Sydney is still in a state of pure ecstasy after the swines bumbled their way to a GF win
crowds shut down the CBD in a parade to celebrate this according to that delusional bafoon bearsy
their memberships are at record levels
they just can't get enough of their beloved swines
hmmmmm

yet on a Sat arvo
20,372 attend their first home game ... probably only 17K payers ..

&
18,866 attend a storm game .... on a Monday night
yes
these guys know what they're talking about don't they ?

2) 20k in the pouring rain is a bad crowd for the Swans, yet 18k on a 2 for 1 night is cause for celebration for the Storm?
You then belittle the Swans for having SCG members and free tickets form part of their crowd, but see this as perfectly acceptable for the Storm to have a bring a friend for free night.
Hypocrit.

lets just remind you that yes 18k did attend but it was a buy one get one fee ticket last nite,
if it wasn't it there would of been round 12 to 13 k there like nearly all of their home games.
its funny dave how you have to resort to insults and random facts that you can never back up, just to try a point, that you know you have already lost!
