Huge crowd given small freo input as well
Hard to see where they could fit the other 1734 in!

Brilliant crowd is Sydney. Can't believe they got that many against Freo.
There were a number of single seats around but looked damn packed....heaps of tigers supporters, one of the largest away contingents I've seen there.
That Sydney crowd though....vs Freo of all teams.....thought it'd just pip 30k

Imagine a prelim between the 2
Hopefully over 20,000 at the Gabba would cap off an excellent start to the round in terms of crowds.

At the start of play it looked more like 20,000 with many empty seats but it slowly built up Yep brilliant crowd.
That's got to be up there with the turnout of the season.
NRL much just look and think what have we got to Do..

A ANZ prelim would probs get 75k I would say.
They'd be thrilled.
Further to that, GWS CEO Dave Matthews is currently lobbying the state govt to keep ANZ's oval shaped capability. This has got up the nose of the Sydney RL fraternity who want to make the stadium exclusively rectangular.
But if a Giants home prelim at ANZ went close to capacity, Matthews would be vindicated.
That would be tough given the price of prelim tickets. They're $150 a pop, give or take.
The crowds today are a pretty good summation of the contrasting way footy is going in NSW & Qld.
The Swans crowd is outstanding, one of the best of the year by any AFL side.
Meanwhile, just 17k for the Lions/Suns clash, easily the lowest between the two sides at the Gabba and no Qld match since April has reached 20k
Overall though, been a great year for crowds, first real boom year in attendances since the mid-00s.

Pretty close. I think they just said 38,487 or similar.
Correct. A couple of thousand short of what I expected. Maybe the rain a couple of hours before the bounce had a small impact. GA not totally full so maybe maybe not. Reserved seats sold out. Lots of empty seats in EFC members reserve.
Waiting for the new stadium?

Lets hope so as they need to double that crowd to fill the new stadium.
