Hard to see where they could fit the other 1734 in!
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

A ANZ prelim would probs get 75k I would say.
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.

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.
