The worst kept secret in the AFL.

For them!

Time for the Tassie govt to stop wasting money on these not wanted games and put it towards the new Tasmanian team.

Yep it never seems to be full for the AFL matches played there.It holds 12,500 according to Austadiums.

But Geelong with 80,000 members or so they claim to have there is no excuse for 10,000 not to turning up for a top 8 clash on a Friday night!

Sorry but it means 25% didn't attend the match and that is a lot and with Geelong claiming to have 80,000 members so far this season it is not a good look or maybe they are BS pets and 3 match members and are not full memberships!

Looks to be a much better crowd at Optus Stadium.

Yep very disappointing considering that Kardinia Park now allegedly holds 40,000!

Yep they need to stop early May!

I'm with you NO other football code in the Nation would get nearly 60,000 on a cold shitty wet night with also many having to go to work and school the next day!

The Front Bar at #8 is going quite well for an AFL footy show. THE FRONT BAR Seven 1,275,000 633,000 24,000

Yep the Punt Road Oval redevelopment should have been started 5 years back when it was first announced and it would have cost tens of millions less than it is now estimated to cost and the longer the delay in starting construction the more expensive it will get. I always wondered why it was...

I wonder how many of those Tiger fans wont bother tp turn up to dreamtime?

Yep less than half the AFL ave even with the AFL having one more match!

Great news can we just get on and build it ASAP! The Age report. Tasmania’s football stadium overcomes big political hurdle AAP A new Hobart stadium, a condition of Tasmania’s entry into the AFL, appears set to get the required parliamentary approval after an opposition about-face. A...

From the AFL. "A total of 403,452 passed through the gates last weekend, the third time this season that more than 400,000 fans had attended games across a single round. Round one drew a record 413,405 fans while round seven attracted 408,433 people. The only other time more than 400,000...

I am referring to the over the top hype about Womens soccer in Australia which is mostly apart from the Matilda's just wishful dreaming on behalf of soccer urgers.

The problem apart from International soccer and rugby matches the local comps don't have enough supporters to make it viable to play at the 56,000 Marvel anymore and the AFL still get a good number of concerts/events that make them good money!

Another excellent round and miles ahead of Australia's supposed biggest sport. NRL Round Total: 135,516 / Average per game 16,940 compared to the AFL average of 44,828 with one extra match!

So what is the total overall for the round did if go over 400k?

The ALW GF of only 7,671 at AAMI Park is just pathetic and proves once again the the Matilda's success has not had a positive bearing on local ALW crowds that overall remain very low. The only Women's Football comp in Australia to get half decent crowds is still the AFLW.

I thought the WC match would have gotten closer to the 60,000 capacity of Optus Stadium than the alleged sellout of only 51,000.

About what you would expect from Melb v Geelong at the G!

And the 10,000 Manly on Friday night.

With that huge crowd it looks like not that many didn't turn up! The SCG allegedly still holds 48,000 but I doubt it now holds anywhere that amount more like 43 - 44,000.

And at Accor the RL match also between two Sydney teams is 17,000.

"which some argue is more valuable to a broadcaster – will be paid hundreds of millions less than the AFL. It will expect a similar sized deal to its rival football code." Only deluded NRL fans believe the BS! On those figures that seems about right for the RL/NRL in 2028 but if things keep...

Yep Darwin with only 140,000 and Cairns at 160,000 are clearly not big enough to sustain an AFL team full time!

Another great result for the AFL and Ch7! Easily beat the NRL again FRIDAY NIGHT NRL LIVE Nine 1,370,000 649,000

And at at least Double that of the RL match at Homebush also with two Sydney teams playing!
