Predicted Crowd v Essendon

[UpTheGuts]

Can't decide if today's baloney helps or hinders us this week.

Saturday is a fair way away and although a belting would be hard to bear, I reckon a fair few of us will turn up to see us give a yelp. Fireworks would be nice, if about 8 rounds too late.

I reckon 76,000

These dreamteam games tend to average 60k. We are 1-7, but then again there are Tiger fans who only show up to games against essendon, collingwood, carlton because they want to get drunk in a noisy place before they go out

MCC is forecasting 55k. They are never far off the mark. 57,000 for mine.

serious? i would've thought 70,000 minimum.

one thing richmond can be proud of is their attendances for the year. for a team that's 1-7 they've pulled in some big crowds.

gotta feeling this will be a close match.

thank god this is on a saturday night, had some annoying sunday match fixtures so far this year.

Anything over 63k will be a good crowd ... but i would say around the 56-58k mark

All I know is I won't be there.

I'll try to catch it on TV but not sure if it will be shown live in New York.

 

[Tigerballs]

I will be there front row cheering like hell! Should be between 65-70 there i reckon.

 

[Abaddon]

If its 55k as predicated by the MCG, probably about 35-40k Essendon fans and about 15-20k Richmond fans at the game.

 

[Godzke]

well i intend to go ... MCC reserve seating maybe.

Weather looking spot on for the weekend.
Got a feeling it will be a dissapointing crowd all the same -low 50's

 

[Bojangles17]

geez I dunno if I'm for it, either stay at home and watch it on the couch with the Mrs or brave the wroth of one of melbournes wintry arctic blasts ....say, what times it start?

As i was fairly close to our last home games crowd against Brisbane, i thought i might give this one a crack.

My guess is 63-65K,

Reasons:

• Dreamtime at The G, always pulls a big crowd, and usually is a very close game.
• Huge Rivalry, Richmond vs Essendon, 2 of the big 4 clubs always draw big crowds.
• After todays happenings, how is Terry Wallace and his boys going to react, will they come out all guns blazing?
• Essendon coming off a win over Hawthorn, and put up a fight against StKilda, they'll be getting Confident...
• Richmond improving nearly every week definitely a win is overdue, plenty of Positives to come out of Port Adelaide
• Both teams have young players that are ready to fire
• Usually a good night out for friends and family with Pre-Match Entertainment and such

I had planned to go to this one, but I had to cancel my holidays from work and can't make it.

anyone heading it the london before the game

 

[Mossy78]

Attendance: 64,831

 

[Shagga21]

Should easily get 70000, will be disapointing if they don't!

 

[leighroy]

will be all bombers supports that are coming out of the wood work, maybe 55000 depending on the richmond menber and mcc

 

[jonty15]

I'll be there with 65-70,000 ready to watch a ripping game... I hope Wallace goes speed speed speed to match it with the bombers... Remember we are the grand final sprint kings... Give it to lids and watch them try to keep up.
