Highest Essendon vs Carlton crowd since 2013.
More than anything, that’s a reflection of two power clubs who’ve both been in the abyss at the same time for 10 years. No sign yet they’ll both be dancing in unison anytime soon however.
More than decent Dave, that's a great crowd but if it weren't for the 150th anniversary, what do you reckon it would've drawn 50-55K
Probably a few more than that. Essendon members have long given up in 2022 so who knows. They probably would’ve drawn 55,000 still. Friday night status would’ve ensured a reasonable turn up.

Bit wet out too, could have easily been more than 65
Yes I agree. If Essendon were even half going it would’ve drawn 80,000 tonight. It’s 140th match in 2013 drew 84,000. Unfortunately not even a 150th could stir a sizeable portion of its fanbase from turning out tonight after basically calling it quits after ‘that’ first round debacle against the Cats. That set the tone for the year in the first Qtr of the first game and we haven’t bothered since.

65k for a team that is going bad in the cold... damm that's good turn out.

Yeah but you should expect that from the big 4 clubs in Victoria.
No matter how bad you’re going these teams have the capacity to still turn up. I know my supporters do. If only we had a few more Ws this year it would be 80,000 tonight.

looks pretty good.
Didn’t even realise the Lions and Broncos clashed tonight. Flicking between channels, both look like solid crowds, would hate to be driving in Brisbane tonight though.

26K tonight for the Lions vs Saints match.
Couldn't decipher the exact figure from the TV coverage.

The NRL game at Suncorp looked pretty ordinary and it wasn't that long ago the they would sellout every match!
And who was the dill at AFL fixturing that thinks going head to head with the NRL in Brisbane is a good idea?
No wonder the crowds are down with stupid decisions like Thursday night games in the middle of winter in Melbourne!
Pretty interesting that they got virtually the same crowd (Broncos got 28k) when going head to head. I'd say that the AFL would be happy with that but obviously wouldve been better to avoid going head to head.
Actually given that there were similar crowds at the two venues with similar respective ladder positions shows the Lions are competive with the Broncos amongst the public.

It's about time some mods started being fair
Actullay, there have been years when the Lions have outdrawn the Broncos.
It's not a new event.

The gabba going to 50k won't be as good as a 40k stadium for the lions.
