[#1 Dogs Fan]

Western Bulldogs vs Adalaide should easily get 30,000 - 40,000 people their for Johno's 300th and the Welsh/ Hudson vs old team

 

[FadeAway]

Pies will pull in the biggest crowds again..

 

[thatday]

Collingwood vs. Fremantle (MCG) 30,341

??????????

Bit low, especially considering its Rd 1 and it isn't on T.V. Not to mention it's Collingwood playing....50,000 should be there, possibly more..

 

[j0nni]

Should be 50,000 for the Collingwood V Fremantle game, last year there was about 44,000 roughly?

Western Bulldogs vs. Adelaide (TD) 25, 113
Hawthorn vs. Melbourne (MCG) 30,673
Kangaroos vs. Essendon (TD) 50,784

Those look more like NRL crowds, vastly underestimating AFL fans mate.

Carlton vs Richmond - 65-70k
Port vs Geelong - 35k about right
Collingwood vs Fremantle - 52k
St Kilda vs Sydney - 38k
West Coast vs Brisbane - 40k is right
Bulldogs vs Adelaide - 34k
Hawthorn vs Melbourne - 45k
Kangaroos vs Essendon - 51k

 

[Robbie]

Low on nearly all of them.

Carlton vs Richmond(MCG) 75k

West Coast vs. Brisbane Lions (SUB) 40k

I disagree, surely we will get 50785 to the Telstra Dome.

 

[Murray]

55k at Coll v Freo easy

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Last year hawks and Dees got near 50k on easter monday in a match which was largely underhyped (I do not believe I heard anything on it in the leadup). This year you have a sunday twighlight match and should get a bit more hype around the HAwks. 55-60k

 

[bluejoker]

I am very good at this:

Blues v Tigers: 72,000 (Definately in the 70's)

Port Geelong: 37,000

Pies vs Freo: 53,000

Saints vs Swans: 36,000

WC vs Bris 40,000\

Bulldogs vs Adelaide 30,000

Hawks vs Melb 41000

Roos vs Bombers 50,000

West Coast vs. Brisbane Lions (SUB) 40k
Western Bulldogs vs. Adelaide (TD) 28k
Hawthorn vs. Melbourne (MCG) 44k

Umm with collingwood v fremantle if we get 30,000 it means it snowed more like 55,000 to 60,000

carlton v richmond 70,000 (tigers looking for improvement, blues wanting to see judd)
PA v Geelong 38,000(GF rematch the South australian will be out in force)
St.Kilda v sydney 45,000 (saints just won nab cup fans want to see more have a large supporter base)
WC v Brisbane 41,000(Eagles will wanna see how the boys go without judd and cousins)
Bulldogs v adelaide 26,000 (small supporter base crows dont watch their team at home)

[summerthebat]

I think a fair few Fremantle fans are coming over for the first match, more than usual I would presume?

I am going with like 8 friends.

 

[Hawkmatic]

Hah! crack addicts the posters who say Hawthorn v Melbourne pull 30K.

try 45-50k.

55k to 60k?

Collingwoods average crowd against Fremantle in Melbourne is around 35k. Last years figure of 44k was the largest and it was for the well hyped return of tarrant.

Unless Buckley's farewell lap drags a load of supporters in, a realistic figure would be 40k - 45k.

And to those suggesting 50k+ for Roos v Essendon, it wont.

Rarely do days games at the Dome get 50k, previous Easter Monday games at the Dome involving Collingwood, Richmond, Roos etc have failed to get more than 48k and I cant see that changing.

its round 1 so we'll have a big crowd
our expectations are huge for this season so even more will turn out
its our home game first one in rnd 1 for some years
added onto many freo supporters will come down as they have a new coach new season etc.

Any less than 55,000 maybe 50,000 ill be very surprised and disappointed with our supporters in truth
