Crowds of 5-7 thousand in expansion area for the AFL.......Expansion going well........

what? the eagles sellout every game. The dockers average high 30's

RL has one game and gets half these figures!

The AFL has 2 expansion teams in NSW and QLD. The Swans just recorded a crowd higher than any NRL game in Sydney this year.

NRL has a total of 62k crowds from 5 games so far this round. The AFL recorded 45 on their own in a non-local derby in RL heartland. The storm..........

Honestly who are the dingbats who said this game would get 50k+? I even heard 65k from Pies......

if it hadnt rained it could have got mid 50's.

The NRL had 10k from two of the biggest drawing NRL teams!!

Reverse the codes. Imagine the Storm playing in Melbourne (instead of the Swansin Sydney) and two of the largest Melbourne AFL teams. It would be 85k for the AFL aand 9k for the NRL!

What is wrong with Sydney? dont they like RL?

Get back to us when you can sellout ANZ, Bt how was that sellout crowd of 50+k at Etihad last time we were down your way...........

I think what you really have to come to grips with Xman is that Sydney is a very multicultural City, we accept most things that come our way.

Does not look good on you Victorians who have a champion team for countless years yet fail to support them, how does that look on you Vic's??

Brand new stadium, arguably the best Half, Dummy, Fullback in RL and piss poor support.......

so the Swans are going to sell out ANZ are they? Sydney NRL teams struggle for 20k in a local derby. Isnt Sydney RL heartland?

SOO got 54k. Is that Home and away RL? big deal. Home and away AFL has already had 17 crowds of more than 54k this year. And thats regular season games, not stand alone events.

Terrible to watch.

Its a blight on RL not Melbourne. Melbournes A league and AFL teams are the best attended in their leagues. Melbourne support tennis, motot racing, horse racing, cricket and golf in greater numbers than any other Australian city.

We love sport, except for crap ones like RL.

Who needs to talk it up? The crowds go because the games are worth seeing. Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney will all have games with crowds over 35k this weekend.

Meanwhile in the NRL theyve achieved a total of 62k from 5 games in Melbourne, Sydney and Qld.
