Crowds a concern

[darcytiger]

So do you recall everywhere you have been for last week or so in case old mate returns from somewhere unknowingly with virus and happened to be sitting next to you?

If I had to sit down and work it out, yes.

 

[Randomizor]

Crowd at Freo vs North is abysmal

 

[hawkman]

Was genuinely surprised how low the Richmond Melbourne crowd was. Thought that would have been at least over 60k

 

[Great8]

29k at Marvel wasn’t great either considering all the members Carlton supposedly have

I check Credit Card, confirmed I was at a hotspot last year at the time.

Easily done.

Though I don't support not checking in.

It was 56k at the G. I reckon they would be disappointed at that

I dont want this thread to get sidetracked, but this having to think and go to credit card info (say 5 mins), and the other dude having to sit and think about it (say 10 mins). Isnt it better to just have someone call you and tell you you were there and its zero mins?
Dunno

Anyway crowds. I was happy with around 10k at suns for 145pm start. 445pm twilight is our sweet spot up here. If no-one wants them, let suns have all home games twilight. Not like we get national free to air games anyway.

Plus there was a good contingent of Brions fans.

I thought 56k last night was extremely underwhelming and leads me to believe today won't be any more then 70k. Happy to be wrong though.

 

[RAPPA]

Weather atrocious yesterday. 29k at Marvel was pretty pathetic given there was still a decent turnout from Lions supporters. Carlton supporters putting the cue in the rack with game attendances.

Whatever the number is, it's a sellout. Literally no more tickets can be sold.

Lucky to have a thousand in the stadium

Mmnn.. not all that convincing.

 

[cherrypie]

Crowd at Freo vs North is abysmal

Would've had the same attendance if it was at Marvel

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

74K was the last count today

 

[mattpolo8]

78k officially. Felt like it. Bottlenecks at the bars and food areas. Shame it didn't hit 80k.

 

[Milanista28]

That's why we'll have Anzac day forever

Marvel is genuinely a disgrace of a ground. Rock up to get in and spend 10-15 minutes for a game that isn’t even packed trying to get in because we’re all herded in like cattle with everyone stopping to scan codes. Farcical.

 

[TEDDY24INC]

People probably didn’t turn up as they are sick of the venues not having enough bars and food stalls open so you don’t miss a quarter of football waiting in a “COVID” Line to purchase something. To cap it off, on LVL 4 they don’t even have the TV’s turned on so you can watch the game whilst waiting in your 100 meter long line

 

[HairyO]

Be interesting to see if Hawks got more than 10k. Were there restrictions in TAS ?

Seemed a small crowd given the weather was literally perfect for football. And the game was an absolute cracker too.

 

[Matilda05]

I heard there were restrictions at UTAS, capped at 9K apparently

those crowd numbers are what got Fitzroy kicked out
