how many midgets home games will it take to reach that figure of 11,438

I'm predicting 4

:_<> :_<>

I don't know RD but isn't the West Tigers been around for like almost 100 yrs and the Warriors like over 10 yrs with plenty of ex-pat NZ people living in Sydney - and isn't it RL hartland on a nice night in Sydney up against NO competition and wasn't it Benji Marshalls last game at Liechhardt? Seems like everything should have been in place for a bumper crowd - oh dear SOO just sucks all the passion, attention and effort out of RL fans don't it! Ends there!

& the Tigers & Benji are shit in 2013 ... as bad as they've been in a decade , Sydneysiders n RL fans in general won't settle or waste their time with crap like VFL fans do all the time
& yet
the Tiges still attract 4 times the support the brand new tsunami Midgets do
that's all we need to consider here

oh &

learn to spell heartland for gods sake you illiterate shithead

Dave , it's a shit crowd the tigers got ... Simple as that !!!

But but but but!

Great crowd here at metricon tonight. :D

over 20k at the metricon, simply amazing

oh boy! wowweeee

Over 10k at Skoda.

A massive 7k at the Raiders!

Oh Dave, you poor poor bastard!

I'm waiting on Dave's excuses . I take "fudging of crowd numbers ". What do others want to guess ?

14k at Etihad. Awful crowd. I know the Saints are playing bad, and Port aren't exactly a massive drawcard, and it's a bigger crowd than every single nRL crowd this round, but that's not good enough for an AFL side in heartland.

Agree , that is pathetic for AFL 14000 . There's also the Milne factor with a few refusing to go. 14000 is unheard of for a game in Melbourne. Not good enough.

Totally agree shows the Saints fans to be bandwagon jumpers

Dave, you are boosting the titans got 23000 and 19000 is poor for suns? Gold Coast is rl heartland Dave and it was the local derby ?? The fact you're expecting the suns should be getting the same or better as the titans suggests you think the AFL is popular here.

14k for Rabbits v Dragons. I thought they were a big rivalry?

What is the average for nrl crowds this year ?
