I had to wait 24 hrs to finally see the attendance to last nights game.
The AFL site went for the N/A approach.
The media are saying Covid is the cause to the small crowds
I can tell you if the Melbourne cup was on tomorrow it would attract more then 100000 people.
It wasn't an issue for the A league GF 14,590 turned up.
The rules, the fixture, the game style, the umpiring and the media have turned people away.
Gilligan and Hocking will have a GF with the lowest attendance since the GFs were played at the G while the Southern stand and Ponsfold stands were built.
We should turn punt rd into a 25000 Stadium.

Some of our crowds have been pathetic, but we are still #1 for attendance so what does that tell us about everyone else?
I agree with the above that AFL fans have had enough. AS for last night no1 expected us to get a crowd yet the moron's still sink the boots in.

Thursday night, Marvel, Suns, Covid: the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

There was never going to be many people at the game, particularly with the late confirmation of the venue and tickets only available on the day.

Footy is just better when the Tigers are winning and playing exciting manic footy. There's a sh!tload of bias in that statement, but I'm sticking to it.

When we're losing, everything that is annoying about the game just gets magnified.
