Derby III

3-0 MV
Crowd: 33k

 

[Roos4eva]

MH: 2-1

Crowd: 25k

 

[LiverpoolRed]

MH: 2-0
Crowd: 34-36k (depending on the days weather)

Ricardinho is a waste of space.

These crowd figures are a massive over-estimation IMO. Unlike your home derbies, we won't have the gate massively boosted by a majority away support. My guess is about 18,000 Victory fans and 4,000 Heart tops.

Don't forget the T20 over at the MCG will take away a lot of potential attendees.

 

[AJ_2000]

25k for me.

 

[stuart27]

MH 3-1

Crowd 19500

 

[ROSEMVP]

MVFC 4 (Allsopp 3 Mate 1)
MHFC 1 (Aloisi 1)

18k (1k of heart supporters)

 

[Maroon Goon]

I just wonder if anyone can help? I heard a rumor that Archie Thompson may be making an appearance and playing. but not sure as also was quoted as 90% match fit. All a bit confusing.

Derby III

3-0 MV
Crowd: 33k

Seeing as you have also predicted that 2011 is "The Year of The Bombers" I like this prediction...

I'd say: 2-1 MH
Crowd: 29-31,000
MOTM: Sibon

Those who feel passionate enough will go regardless and IMO the tennis makes 0 difference as at night only people at Melbourne Park are at RLA. 13k tops.

MV already leading 1-0...

 

[Zidane98]

8-0 mvfc, 52k

 

[borgsta2006]

MV 3-1

Crowd = 15k....
T20 will take away a lot of support.

 

[ErnieSigley]

Are Sukha and Kemp playing? Cos I think MV might struggle to keep up with the Heart's pace on the wings as in game 1.

They were at training. Rumor has it Archie was training ok then pulled up sore. Hopefully he's alright for the game. Hernandez absent from training.

 

[Normy132]

1 - 1

Crowd about 25,000.

What's the deal with this one, they took a banner, and...?

Anyway, 0-0 and 25k.

The sign's upside down. The fools, thinking they were top sh*t, thought they'd pose with the banners. They didn't realise it was upside down and now they look like the biggest try-hard idiots in the Melbourne metropolitan area.

 

[TOP SECRET]

Just got my tickets, the lady at the box office said sales have been strong and she expects 30k.

Anyone know the status of Thompson, Sukha and Kemp? Any expected to play?

Oh wait, I get it. The Yarra is the UpsideDown River. Very subtle.
