Raiderdave that photo was before the start of the game. There was a huge line up outside for tickets that went well after the game had started.

I thought there would have been more than 13k to be honest. But hey attack the AFLs crowds to try and justify your poor crowds.

[Fred]

Yeah that line was amazingly high ... I got there just before start of play and luckily only had to renew my membership so short line for that.... I don't think many at the end of that line would have got in prior to quarter time. I think for tv the problem is that all the seats on the wing are gold reserve ... So people don't buy these as much . May be why it looks worse on tv .

Ah yes, my error. Thought you had 2 FN games.

22k from 3 NRL games in Sydney.

What did the swans get again, in the same conditions?

God you're disingenuous. Anyone who watched the game, or even the highlights on AFL.com.au can see how pathetic your claims are.

[Drac]

And if RL was truly popular in Sydney it would draw more than AFL in RL heartland. true?

I'm looking at the 5 biggest sports crowds in Sydney this year
4 RL crowds ... 1 yawnion crowd
not a swines crowd in sight



it will be 5 RL after the 3rd SOO

Vicky kicky in Sydney
named after the Fed Govt's education reforms ... GONSKI

So youve changed from TV ratings to rep games.....

RL struggling in its own heartland!

rep games
they're still RL aren't they



lets have a little look at where Vicky kicky sits against other codes ... crowds wise in 2013 in Sydney shall we ( some predictions here )

NRL GF ?? 83,000
SOO 3.... ?? 83,000
A league all stars V Manchester United ?? 82,000
Wallabies V Lions ?? 82,000
Soccer World Cup Qualifier 80,500
SOO 1.... 80,400
Bledisloe Cup ??80,000
NRL Prelim Final ?? ... 75,000
NRL easter Friday clash ... 52,000
A League GF 42,000
NRL Anzac clash 41,000
Waratahs V Lions 41,000


Swines .... ?????


:>:: :>:: :>:: :>::


biggest club in Sydney eh ? :_<> :_<>

so one-off crowds are a bigger indicator of support than averages? Is that what you're asserting? So Rugby Union is bigger than rugby league in Brisbane is it? Socceroos qualifiers are bigger than SOO in Sydney are they?

******.

[Fred]

I would suggest we just ignore Dave until he starts putting decent arguements forward ! I mean really, the swans could be getting 80000 crowds every week ands million people on ratings and he would still say no one likes them !!! So let's just ignore him and giving him oxygen. We're just lowering ourselves really.

:

well the swans game was in sydney to idiot & 27k still turned up, half the stadium is still under construction! so weather is no excuse
it has been raining on the gold coast & south Brisbane for the best part of last week & the weekend, & the suns still manage to get a better turn out with Metricon Stadium being a very open stadium. the Gold Coast is a place you like to call a NRL strong hold as well
it sums it up again RL dying in the ass :D

so once again you fail & NRL is still the joke that it is

[Stewie]

3 thugby games in Sydney can't even match the Swans crowd on Friday night. Sorry Retardeddave but people just aren't passionate about poor man's rugby. Deal with it. The Australian game is the future sport for Sydney.

[Drac]

Richmond v Saints 50k. Wow. People keep talking about Souths being the sleeping giant, but Richmond are showing them what a real sleeping giant is.
