14k for parra today.

This will surely be the lowest rnd 1 total for many years
Wow lowest round 1 coming up for a long time - I suppose that's what you get when you fake international competition by having Australians masquerading as Americans, Italian's, Canadians, Fijians etc etc etc - I suppose the populous have seen through such obvious deceptions! Having your head honcho completely stuff up the whole finals and Cronulla investigation and then hit them with a wet lettuce leaf and then to top it off say your going to be the dominant code in 5 years. Well I guess all those fans are voting with their feet aren't they! Woeful!
117,189 so far with one game to go. They need 21k to beat 2004 which seems unlikely given its the sharks :lol:

2003 will be the lowest at 123k, then 2014 at 130k or so. Poor Dave Smith :cry:

Low crowds a concern for NRL
Photo Source: AAP
The NRL's hopes of boosting crowds in 2014 have suffered an early setback, with disappointing round-one attendance figures not even matching the A-League's average.

Chief executive Dave Smith this month vowed to increase crowd figures and club memberships this season and while TV viewing numbers were extremely high, it was the traditional poor cousins of the NRL that had more clicks through the turnstiles.

The highest crowd of the opening seven games of the round was the 27,282 who attended Thursday's blockbuster between bitter rivals South Sydney and reigning premiers the Sydney Roosters at ANZ Stadium.

It was less than half from last year's final-round minor premiership showdown between the same teams at the same venue and also well down on the 35,952 at Allianz Stadium for the 2013 season opener between the Roosters and Rabbitohs.

In comparison, the A-League's derby between Sydney FC and the Western Sydney Wanderers had 40,285 fans pack into Allianz Stadium contributing to an average attendance of 16,870 per game across five games - with the NRL registering 16,753 after seven games.

According to OzTam ratings figures released on Sunday, 313,000 people nationwide tuned in to see Cameron Smith kick the match winning extra-time field goal for Melbourne, while the Sydney Derby attracted 94,000 fans on Fox Sports.

The NRL's other matches, North Queensland v Canberra drew 258,000 viewers, while Penrith and Newcastle's afternoon match attracted 187,000 fans.

The NRL's Head of Football Todd Greenberg admitted the low crowds were a concern to the code.

"There is no doubt we would like some bigger numbers in round one," Greenberg told ABC Grandstand radio.

"We have been talking to our clubs a lot to see how we can improve the live experience and that won't happen overnight.

"(Thursday night) was a selection from the broadcasters who have paid handsomely for the commercial right and they chose to place that game then."

OUCH! So much for the 5 yr plan! Hahaha - NRL followers love to tell us how their going to be number 1 but won't even go to their codes games! What a joke!

Your the one who was crowing about having 50 mil profit and being number one in five years - your the one telling we were afraid! Now you have to suck it! So stop whinnying like some lil bitch and take your comeuppance! 5 yrs what a joke!

The AFL may very well have an ordinary first round in comparison to previous years because this is the first time theyve started in mode March and they don't have access to the MCG.

However:
- the AFL didnt come out and brag about great growth in the next 4 years
- the AFL have new conditions for its first round being a split round with no access to the MCG. the NRL is comparable to previous years

I also like how you claim its an ordinary start. An ordinary start would be around the average of previous years, not the lowest in over a decade.
