Comparing a round 1 friday night game of RL in Sydney to an AFL practice match on the GC! Thats what you are forced to do by what was an absolutely disgraceful turnout by RL fans for a blockbuster!

How terribly tragic for the NRL!

a pre season COMP match that was
free entry
against last seasons premiers
on a fine night

yep

fair comparison

the Thuns
see ya

WTF are you on about!!!

How does full season membership numbers relate to preseason practice matches???

Collingwood already have 50k members. Do you think they get 50k to preseason games?!?!

Got a link for the 1.2M viewers? Interesting since the Broncos played one of the most popular Sydney teams yet the match only got 600k! Tragic really! Then only 11k attended the game!!!!! This was a full season game with two popular teams!!!

In fact already in round 1 the NRL have registered a lower crowd than any AFL match played last year, excluding games played in Darwin, Cairns or ACT!!!
NRL = the laughing stock of Australian support!

again nationally ... last nights game
attracted more veiwers then 95%.. maybe 100% of VFL club games will this year ....

i mean
whats doing there ?

11K was a fair turnout in the conditions considering it was live on TV ...

wanna bet that 11K is still smaller then any VFL game outside the centres named above by seasons end ?
i think you won't have the jubblies to make such a claim

BS all BS! You have no link for that crap. The NRL got 600k from 7 million viewers yet you are telling me that the regional audience of 4.5Million rated another 600k!!!

Fudge fudge!!!

11k is a fair turnout is it??? Maybe for the NRL it is.

They should if it's free entry to members.

Yeah and training sessions are free to enter as well. It means nothing! Every AFL preseason game has drastically reduced attendance compared to season games. FFS, the AFL season hasnt even started yet! The teams play juniors or reserves. They try new tactics. The rules are even different. It aint an exhibition game. It's purely practice.

So no NRL fan on here knows how many turned up to watch the Eels v Broncos blockbuster last night? Really?

Must have been at least 50k surely! No?

Maybe 40k? No?

Surely it was at least 30k! Oh no!

Not as low as 20k. What a disgrace!!!

Still lower!!!! You cannot be serious!

How many?!?! Come on! Tell us!!!!!!
