Preview Dees game crowd size (?)

[roobear]

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

Alright I'll go

 

[Waynesworld]

Bristle and Lloydy were talking about us getting a big crowd this week with North supporters getting out this past month. Some chatter about a big test for supporters. THey thought 30K should be expected.

I will say 24,701.

It all depends on the timing of when they count the crowd.

My guess will be 22,352, or 22,350 if they count when the Melbourne supporters go to the toilet.

If i'm one of the 10 going down on the ground to win the car, I just hope I'm at the back of the line. That's how it works, right?

It's interesting because whenever you see a line of people with keys trying to win a car, it always never someone at the front end of the line that wins it. I'll be watching with interest what happens on Saturday.

 

[Benno_900]

I remember when they did this last season and none of the keys worked the first time.

 

[shinboner magic]

Who uses a key to open a car anyway.

 

[Gasometer]

The odds of winning the BT are better than Tatts surely?!

The game will barely draw 20k going by past outings at the Docklands against Melbourne.

Round 8, 2011 - 23536
Round 6, 2010 - 26763
Round 19, 2009 - 16594
Round 16, 2007 - 20187
Round 17, 2000 - 30423 (both teams finished top four that year)

Those 30,000 & 26,000 are quite massive in comparison. What a difference winning makes.

This is the only Melbourne @ Docklands I go to each year... what a treat! Me and 5 North fans (including the girlfriend) whilst I get shitfaced and tear in to whichever Melbourne player is lucky enough to get within earshot!

And yes, I ****ing hate Docklands, I go for North home games (But not much this year... footy hurts), but hate Melbourne matches or others there.

 

[Bigeasy]

I'm tipping a crowd of 28945. Watch the blue and white gradually build. Sad but bandwagoners start to come back to games like a friend of mine who is going to his first game for a while, like 3 years.

At least he's a member I guess.

 

[ARDENSTREETforever]

Hoping to crack 27,000 but i can't see more than 22,000 to be honest.... 20k NMFC.

 

[muttley45]

27,987

 

[showusyacunningt]

24,946

95% of those will be North supporters.

 

[Gasometer]

I remember Rd 6 2010...I had a tooth ache and ended up in the chair by Wednesday. The game as a nuisance...my mouth was killing me...the hot and cold pain.

 

[TheKanga]

Toothaches can be hell

 

[Boozeroo]

Would like to see the Dees supporters there for Green's 250th..... not like they have to go to sydney or adelaide for it....

Etihad might as well be for them

 

[syl]

I would be more likely to go to Sydney or Adelaide...

 

[Pilkingbod]

Surprised this isn't in the dreaded twilight spot.

If it wasn't Saturday 2.10 - I wouldn't be going.

Leaving that shithole at 8PM on a Sunday evening is a ****ing terrible experience... had to do that plenty of times last year at North matches, was not fun at all.

Agree, even worse for interstaters. Twilight seems to divide opinion (mostly negative, a few enjoy it though) but for mine its like NMFC drawing the shortest straw possible every time we are scheduled then.

If it was twilight this week I doubt it would draw 20K - luckily its on Sat arvo so maybe mid 20s.

 

[NMFC 1811]

I will be stoked if we can get that many of us tomorrow. Chuck in a few thousand Demons and a few thousand neutrals and the crowd AND atmosphere will be okay.

 

[Sticks Mckonky]

I reckon 28,990
Snow is melting and we get a good timeslot for a change.

 

[The Maestro]

Is there any general admission for G.A members on level one for tomorrow's game?

We've always sat on Level 3 or upgraded our tickets to the wings so I'm not sure if there is GA for level one? Cheers
