It's fun to swing over to the ferals' board after a Crows win.

The glee and excitement of a possible crows loss turns to accusations of the SMA faking the crowd numbers (far king LOL), and somehow the team that was being flagellated over when it looked like they could win it, are suddenly shit because, you know, Crows are winning...and by lots ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Then comes all the reassuring and 'justification' why the crows won't win the flag. All the pants-shitters band together and make stuff up. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

Never change Port Power since-the-beginning-of-time board.






Aha ha

ha ha ha

The SMA are fudging the numbers....something stinks...he he he he ha ha ha ha...because. :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:
They can't understand that people were up the back and in the bars because the weather was shit.

Of course there are going to be more people sitting at their seats when the weather is fine compared with when it is pouring with rain.

They're just upset that even when the weather is abhorrent we are still pulling bigger crowds than they do when the weather is perfect. They just have a hard job accepting the truth so they like to invent tin foil hat theories as a coping mechanism.

Some were in the hospitality tents, and the ground was only configured for 45,000.... Wait, how many were there?... the ground was only configured for 42,000.

The reason the eastern stand might look fuller during a Port game that has a lower overall crowd is that half of it is general admission. Rather than be out in the rain on the hill or behind the goals/northern 50 where it's also general admission, everyone packs into those seats leaving large empty areas out in the rain.

We've got allocated seating in much more of the stadium so when we have a lower crowd people can't just move to the empty seats undercover which leaves a more even spread of empty seats around the ground.

Not our best crowd, sure, but doesn't displace Port from one of their 19 spots on the lowest 20 crowds ever at Adelaide Oval list.

The top 20 crowds? they have 4 without us, we have 9 without them, the rest are showdowns.
