The AFL continues to belt the RL on Ch9 as CH 7 is way ahead on the 5 capital city index. So much for RLs supposed dominance as a TV sport!

Marvel is NOT a true rectangle stadium even with the seats rolled out on the wings as the seats at both end goals are a still a long way from the action due to the oval shape!

Yep they cannot get away from the FACT that soccer is a Pommie invented game!

There are still walk up standing room apparently but if you flag a sell out days ahead those people wont bother to turn up!

Yep there were plenty of empty seats and can the AFL STOP calling these BS crowds sell outs? Marvel apparently holds 53,000 for AFL matches = go figure why it was 10,000 short of a full house.

Yep over on LU they cannot stop raving they are having a sort of record year but we keep quiet about the great season we are having crowd and TV wise = why has Gill gone to sleep at the wheel on the way out?

It will rely on a lot Carlton fans and MCC Members to turn up to get over 70K!

The Marvel crowd is NO WHERE near to 45 -50k as predicted then again it is a St Kilda home game and it looks like the Saints fans don't believe they are in the eight for long and haven't turned up in numbers!

Time to give these obviously not wanted AFL matches by Tasmanian football fans the flick! The millions saved by the Tasmanian Govt should go to the new Tassie team not bottom AFL clubs like North and Hawthorn. If played in Melbourne there would been at least another 20k fans who could have seen...

About what you would expect from a 16th placed Hawks home match at the G with a possible thumping by Collingwood! It was never going to get anywhere near 75k as some on here were suggesting.

About what I expected.

Sadly those 32K members do not translate into bigger crowds at GS which are mostly below 10K!

The Storm have not really improved in the last 24 years even with winning 6 premierships as their crowds barely get to 16k even now and their ratings on CH 9 when shown live are abysmal like the 25k in Melbourne last night on CH9s main channel in a city of 5.2 million with massive over the top...

It is going to be interesting next season when the new stand is finished to see how many 40k sell outs Gelong get - I suspect not too many!

An interesting article from Caroline Wilson in todays AGE! This is how anti AFL Sydney/Brisbane media are holding the game back when the AFL have to pay for coverages in the Murdoch rags! I thought as ALL the AFL matches are on Foxtel it would be in their interests to cross promote the AFL...
