I don't see that changing any time soon because for some reason they are always a top 4 type of a team on the field. It would be interesting to see how they went with 3 or 4 years of on field failure, but I don't think the AFL would allow that and they are more than capable of manipulating things for the greater good of the code (which the NRL seem incapable of). I think GWS will soon attract bigger crowds than the Sydney NRL teams (as they are coming in to a big period of success). The AFL are just smarter operators in every area and its been that way for decades. I cannot watch AFL but I can acknowledge the facts in that regard.

a very healthy crowd for rich v demons on a Sunday night! These are two very average teams playing in a time slot that doesnt usually draw a crowd

Perfect day in Melb, Collingwood with a lot to lose and Essendon with nothing to lose - I recon around 95kIntentcity wrote:Be interesting to see today's crowd, reckon around 75k would be a reasonable crowd all things considered, can't see them getting 90k+

I reckon it will be low 80's. Collingwood are horrible while Essendon are without more than half their best team. At least it will be more competitive than I would have thought pre season I suppose

with 280k attending the AFL already this round anything over 92k today will give the AFL its highest attendance in a single round ever

Well bugger me that's some good crowds for a population the size of Aus, don't care what anyone says, the fumbles n bumbles along with RL put Aus way way way up in world terms in averages for crowds and ag.
Even the so called garbage NRL average is world standard, you farkers from victopia are weird tho.

thats very unfair on AFL fans from Adelaide, Perth and Sydney, all of which had crowds over 35k.ParraEelsNRL wrote:Well bugger me that's some good crowds for a population the size of Aus, don't care what anyone says, the fumbles n bumbles along with RL put Aus way way way up in world terms in averages for crowds and ag.

Have we had a serious debate on why AFL draws far bigger crowds? Without turning this into a troll-fest, why do people think AFL is so much better attended in all AFL states, not just Melbourne?
