Play Nice 2022 AFL/AFLW Crowds/TV Ratings/Stream thread

That's fine in these times. 2019 and prior, you'd expect 40-45K. Not sure how many crows fans are there today, 3-5K at a guess?

Being at the ground, I think 3-5K Crows fans sounds right.

 

[dave10]

Poor crowd at Marvel. Members reserved seats only about 40% full. Last weeks performance probably impacted the turnout by 7-8,000.

Probably ~27,000.

it was 2017 last MCG home game between the two I think. 33,000.

 

[Rouel_14]

Coll vs Adel = 36,843

I think it’s a pretty dam decent crowd.

If tomorrow gets over 30k I’ll take that as a win too.

Certainly the Bombers crowd was poor, understandably. Members didn’t show up after last weeks flop. Reserved seating bays were more than half empty and the walk up crowd didn’t show up. I decided not to go this week, still filthy about the attitude displayed last week first up. On a sunny afternoon I didn’t need the stress and dissaoountment thanks. I’ve been a member 27 years and only missed 5-10 games in Melbourne the last 20 years. Yesterday was the first time I’ve missed a 1st home game in 16 years! I wasn’t alone.

Another two years away are the Bombers. That’s the reality. The list is good, not perfect but foundations are there. It just needs time and patience to evolve. Don’t believe the linear growth and media hype of winning finals. Positive is the Clubs back on track off field and culturally which is the critical bit.

In the meantime Bomber fans will probably watch more of games on TV rather than attending. Certainly in the early part of the year as it fights a tough draw.

Suns crowd also quite poor. They appear to have lost 30% of its active following, despite all the football played up there the last 2 years. A concern for league HQ.

It only matters if there's a sellout. Otherwise the home club loses on ticket revenue.

No. The seller gets a partial rebate but the new purchaser pays full price.

Just noticed the post-match of the Sydney game rated 106k in Sydney, which is pretty good.

 

[MattF185]

I’m predicting around 13,500 for the North v West Coast game today. Around 32,000 at the G for Richmond v Giants.

 

[Sammoll]

Crowds so far this week have been decent. Can’t complain about every game being above 30k so far (besides GC.)

However, it looks like a very poor crowd for North. Looks like they’ve closed off half of the top tier.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Gold Coast vs Melbourne = 8,280

 

[Rob]

Yes, but a lot of that doesn't go to the club.

The club is much better off if a spectator buys a normal ticket as a lot more of it goes to them.

North Melbourne vs West Coast:

14,204

10th lowest crowd ever at Marvel - 4 of the bottom 9 were in season 2021.

 

[dave10]

10th lowest crowd ever at Marvel - 4 of the bottom 9 were in season 2021.

And I assume the Eagles would’ve had reasonable support from their Victorian fans. Keeping it real, the Roos are no show for finals and a reasonable portion of their match going fans would’ve drifted into the inactive space.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

10th lowest crowd ever at Marvel - 4 of the bottom 9 were in season 2021.

Lowest Marvel crowds:

1. Melbourne vs GWS (Round 23 2015) = 8,974
2. Gold Coast vs Richmond (Round 16 2021) = 9,327
3. Collingwood vs Fremantle (Round 15 2021) = 11,670
4. Western Bulldogs vs Fremantle (Round 7 2003) = 12,542
5. Melbourne vs Fremantle (Round 21 2001) = 12,566
6. North Melbourne vs Port Adelaide (Round 1 2021) = 13,050
7. Melbourne vs Fremantle (Round 16 2012) = 13,284
8. North Melbourne vs Adelaide (Round 4 2021) = 13,479
9. St Kilda vs Port Adelaide (Round 19 2001) = 14,018
10. North Melbourne vs West Coast (Round 2 2022) = 14,204

Average crowd. Not too bad but not really all that good.

 

[Stottzy]

Gotta say that is pretty dissapointing. Even in these times, I thought Richmond supporters would come out with their first home game, on a beautiful sunny day in Melbourne. At least should have got 35k-40k

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

I thought it would crack 30K, but I think the expectations at Richmond were low today.

• Coming off a round 1 loss for the first time in a decade.
• Train disruptions on the Belgrave/Lilydale line; and
• No Dusty, Riewoldt or Grimes playing would have had some expecting a loss.

40k very unrealistic.

Very very rare Richmond break 40k against interstate teams. Only really started doing it in prime time the last 4 years.

In home and away I think 2 GWS games in Melbourne fixtures have got 40k and I’m sure they were both Collingwood?
