Preview Dees game crowd size (?)

[Saintly31]

Well, Lloyd would say that I guess

22-23K would be my estimate, considering the Demons poor following at ES and woeful form.

 

[Roo Freak]

How about locking in some of the Essendon v Hawks fans from Friday night? That might be a good way of boosting crowd figures

 

[RoyalBlue]

Anyone recall the Dome game against them a few years ago when Juice Newton took mark of the year over Browny?

I swear if you sat in the right spot you could headcount every #godees fan there.

If there's more than 1000 who make it I'll be stunned. A good measure of our support base this one - Whatever the figure is, take 1000 off and you have our bottom line plus some bandwagon for recent good form.

 

[GarnerSmash]

23,200

20,000 North.

 

[Handsome.B.Wonderful]

Considering we are travelling well and our crowds vs GC and Brisbane have been around 18-20k, I would estimate we will get at least 17k North fans to the game.

Melbourne had 13k vs Freo at the dome 2 weeks ago so lock them in for about 8k.

My estimate is 24,964.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

22,900.

 

[fuego]

There was just over 18k when we played gcs, I would hope that our current form, the possibilities of finals, the game being played on a Saturday should have around 20k. Hopefully the Dees have around 6 to 7k at the game.
I would consider that to be a good turn out given we would have around 65% of our current membership at the game.

 

[roobear]

I would have thought low 20s. 25k would be great!

I know a few Go Dees fans around my office building, and nearby buildings in town, and each one I've bumped into this week has said "nup, why bother?" or similar to my question "are you going to the game next Saturday?"

These blokes aren't your smoking jacket wearing Mt Buller ski run yearning Melbourne Grammar graduates either. To say they're "disenchanted right now" would be an understatement.

 

[ThePezDispenser]

Dees fans hate the dome. They actually have to pay money to go there... Unreal

 

[mark73]

As long as we get the 4 points I don't really give a shit.

 

[danj]

25k or so without Majak 30k if he plays, just naming him as an emergency should boost sales

Yeah, with good reason too TT. I actually feel for them a bit - must be very disenchanting especially when seemingly powerless to do anything about it.

Clark going down this year was the last thing they needed.

 

[Josh Barnstable]

18,000 if we're lucky.

 

[Mr. Blonde]

65,000.

Oh, and I'm taking my kids, so 65,003

 

[jacko57]

18,000 if we're lucky.

Saturday arvo, with the team in the 8 & in form? I'd be very disappointed if we don't get at least 20-22k, even with Shemon fans staying away in droves.

 

[winalotroos]

I hoping for mid 20s, what is the break even these days for the club?

 

[shinboner magic]

They are just a soulless club.

24k should be there.
To see us turn on the class.

 

[GoNorth]

Have already been told by a Melbourne-supporting friend that she won't be going.

 

[GoNorth]

North supporters should be going any way (assuming they live close enough to Etihad to do so) but there is another very good reason for North Melbourne members to attend Saturday's game...

North Melbourne members have the opportunity to win a brand new Mazda BT-50 simply by turning up to the Members’ Recognition game this Saturday against Melbourne.

By scanning your membership card at the game, you are automatically entered in the draw.

However those who’ve attended multiple North games are at an advantage. Every time they’ve scanned their membership card at a home game in 2012, they get a bonus entry into the draw. So the more games attended, the more chances at winning the Mazda.

Ten lucky members will be selected at random to head out onto the ground at half-time and one could take home the BT-50.

There are also multiple specials available from the merchandise stands including 20 percent off adult and youth NMFC hoodies, 20 percent off adult spray jackets and the 1999 Finals Victory Pack for just $15.

So head along to Etihad to watch North Melbourne continue its charge towards September, take advantage of the merchandise specials and possibly win a Mazda BT-50.

The Mazda BT-50, where more is more.

^^^ is it the twin cab?

Just need to work out whether I'll bother going or not.

I'm sure they'll pimp out a twin cab for you if you chuck in a couple of bucks yourself rb.

Can we just field that thing against the Dees as our sub? That on Jack Watts would make hell of a last quarter viewing.

 

[Twinkletoes]

That on Jack Watts would make hell of a last quarter viewing.

You would've seen that, had our own BT 50 not been shipped off to Utah for a month.

Although JZ in full flight would feel more like one of these to The Other Jack:

 

[keeno 111]

I need a first car!

I'm feeling lucky anyway
