NRL cracking the 20000 game average thus far this season - well done.

nearly 21000 atm ..
& they smashed through that 20K barrier in 2023 fwed , not like its a new thing
next barrier
25000

lets go ...

this type of thing won't hurt the NRL's quest
I think the fumblers did this at the reach around didn't they ?....

there will be ticket deals & all sorts of incentives to get 2 sellouts on the day
The Broncos game will on its ear anyway , its the Phins one that will require work

but well done
great idea

the weather has again wreaked havoc on the NRL for its ANZAC weekend
heavy rain which was torrential during the game last night in Brisbane kept that crowd down to
40,233
showers today in Sydney
its going to be very wet too in Melbourne today & tonight for games there

Sydney could get up to 70mm tomorrow & Sunday
such a shame
Leichardt is sold out , but will be lucky to be half full with next to no protection from the elements there

3 years running freddy, again the NRL does not include its 3 biggest games for the year in this figure either.
NRL could get with ease 25k a round if a few grounds were upgraded and not capped.

I think they are looking at home and away ? No finals, no grand finals. And isn’t SoO ARL - but that too is not included - just like finals and grand finals, indigenous games, internationals, pre season etc - just hind and away. Not sure why SoO would be included when all those other no hone and away game aren’t.

I think if they had bigger stadiums they would but probably not profitable just yet - if game crowds grow however it may be feasible - or move to ground rationalisation but then you lose that “home suburban ground” feel you get when playing at small suburban grounds - which lot ask for - a little bit of nostalgia I guess-
