I know Football we normally sell out the Melbourne Derby at AAMI and often at Ethihad.
The Sydney Derby is a sell out at either location

the AFL sells out a number of games, and we are talking BIG sell outs at the MCG (am I right in assuming the Adelaide and Perth derbies sell out?) wouldn't suprise me if they sell out 5 or 6 games.

But do the NRL? I have honestly don't know.

that's 10 sellouts
anything else we can help you with wanker

The AFL sellout is based on NO TICKETS AVAILABLE. Its not a percentage thing at all.

sure it is

sure

Wookie, that is a logical way of doing it, same as HAL no tickets available = sell out

only trying to keep up with you wanker

A 16k attendance at parra is usually a sell out because no tickets go on sale once they hit that. They have 18,000 members with 16,000 of those being season tickets. From my experience only a small fraction of season ticket holders will go to every home game, a generous percentage would be 50-60% attendance rate.

Unfortunately no club in the hal or any code to my knowledge utilizes buy back schemes like overseas where a member can sell their seats for a certain game or games back to the club if they know they won't make it who then put it on public sale. Its a great revenue generator but Australia is kinda behind in this aspect.

The wanderers allocate 1200 seats to away fans and aside from SFC and mvfc it doesn't sell out or gets maybe half full. That leaves less than 2000 tickets for public sale to WSW fans which usually gets bought up days in advanced depending on their form and oposition hence why they want parra upgraded. General rule of thumb at WSW games is not to bother turning up without a booking cause you won't get a ticket at the gate as a normal walk up. Same happens for mvfc home games at aami.

The eels have just over half the amount of season tickets as WSW so you usually can walk up and get a ticket easy because the NRL don't have rules on allocation for away fans and because they put more tickets on sale to the public because of the lower number of season ticket holders

Have seen many aflgames at the etihad with no tickets left that have an attendance of 47-48k for the same reason.

I've been a season ticket holder for 4 years and while it costs a lot at first and even though I know I can't make every game, I go to most and I end up saving money regardless and its still better financially for the club and all parties

As the DT revealed last year, most WS based NRL clubs have only a small fraction of their membership numbers as season tickets(tigers for instance only had 3500)

The Lions should sell-out round 1 playing Collingwood at the Gabba. Collingwood have a lot of fans & things are looking up for the mighty Lions. I cant wait. I wonder if the Broncos will sell-out there first home game whoever they are playing! Time will tell

The place has never sold out for a vfl game.

It has for Cricket and Rugby League though.

Bullshit.

If Parramatta can get those crowds that RD posted and have a higher membership than the other lot, how the fuck can you justify any of the bullshit you have been stating?

Parra:11000 season tickets out of 20000 members
Wsw:16000 season tickets including 2000 on the waiting list out of 18700 members

Parra-19k capacity minus 11k tickets : 8k for general sale
Wsw-19k capacity minus 16k tickets and 1.2k away : 1.8k for general sale

Less season tickets : higher chance to get closer to optimum capacity for a single game at the expense of less membership revenue but higher gate

More season tickets: lesser chance of achieving optimum capacity but a higher avg attendance year round, more more membership revenue, less gate sales

Memberships and.more.importantly, season tickets are the lifeblood of any club. Significantly more revenue, at the start of a season that isn't going to be effected by fluctuating on pitch form like gate sales

Common sense dummy - use it, if its still too hard to.understand then sorry, can't help ya!

And as usual stupid has to appear and state the bloody obvious, I already said parramatta took games elsewhere, country nsw and the NT along with games at anz.

Derp, an average is an average, those crowds held at smaller grounds away from home, do they help the averages?

Lis, you really have no idea, but at least essingbongs in the clear aye.
