Fight Club - Football Crowds

[Xman]

Are you talking to me?

You realise the Suns and Lions are both in the bottom two? You think that may have affected their crowd?

[AFLcrap1]

No not you .
Adumbo aka LIC.

Continually tells us how much better the Thuns are going than the Titans .
Tells us the Titans are way behind in every department ..

[Xman]

The Suns have been, however this year they are struggling after changing coach and losing Ablett due to injury. The Giants have passed the Suns in development now despite being a year younger

[AFLcrap1]

You really believe that .
The midgets were shown up yesterday as ordinary as they were last yr .
The first 4 RDs they were given the easiest games against the basket case teams( in true Aflol style , Rig the draw) to give the impression of how great they are going ..

Wait till they play a few more better performing teams ,before you judge them .
They will plummet down to join the other basket cases.

Crowd and member-wise, yep, the Suns have been ahead of the Titans

The Giants were beaten by WC in the West, hardly an uncommon event. They played the swans last week and were very good

Will the HAL semi in Melbourne draw a bigger crowd than the AFL tonight?

[post_hoc]

Collingwood v Geelong pulled 63,000 to the G last year when the Pies were 12th. The MCC is predicting 65,000. Kind of cold but only 20% chance of rain. Might be close.

The crowd noise is amazing on the TV for the HAL, sounds intense

i bet!
the AFL fans will understand, but you might have to explain it more to the NRLOL fans

[post_hoc]

Official crowd: 52,152 at the MCG

Melbourne Victory @gomvfc
Crowd of 50,873 at @EtihadStadiumAU tonight. Take a bow, Melbourne

Point - AFL.

You said it would be close, can't get much closer.

[post_hoc]

Now 30,000 at the Sydney FC and Adelaide game?

From LU. Even RL fans are fed up with their own fan's lack of interest

Taking a punt at the rest of the round
Canberra v Gold coast 8.5k
Cronulla v warriors 8k
Cowboys v Bulldogs 15k
Manly v newcastle 10.5k
Parra v Melbourne 13k
South sydney v Dragons 12k

Completely lost faith in the fans and clubs to produce any sort of decent crowd. Perfect weather in sydney this weekend which might help there. Despite the schedule having greatly improved in the last 2 years and some aweseome deals going around particularly in sydney the current and previous regime has driven fans out of the grounds over the last decade and its going to take a monumental effort to turn it around and produce something resembling growth.

Worst of all we have one more round of footy not affected by origin and then the average is truely buggered.

The average after this round is going to be approx 15,800 and its not going up from there. Worst case the season finishes around 15k for the season depending on how the post origin period goes but judging on previous seasons lately crowds die from origin 1 and do not recover

A league fan
Yes
Lets all give up based on one wankers opinion

Heres my tips for some vflol games

2500 at the showground
7500 on the GC
8500 in Hobart

Despite perfect weather n an improved draw
The VFL is dying

[Xman]

[leagueiscrap]

between the tax payer raiders vs gold coke titans

[Xman]

Healthy crowd at the Giants home ground, and they just hit the front with 10 minutes to play against the hawkes
