Highest QClash crowd in history is 27,170 in 2013, so can the record be broken today?
GA sections are about 80% full 30 mins out. So as long as reserved seat holders turn up should be about 27-28k

Tipping the Q Clash to pip 30k tonight and break the record attendance of 27,170 whilst simultaneously eclipsing 400k for the round.
Looks pretty decent crowd at the gabba

By my reckoning we’re on 373,167 with the Q clash to come.
Only 26,833 off 400k.

I'm assuming the 27,009 for the St Kilda - North Melbourne game would be the best ever lowest attendance in a given round since we've had 18 clubs (i.e. the highest 9th best attendance in a round)?
I'm trying to out-compete the attendance geeks on here for novel records.

Yep looks 30k+. Great idea to have this game on the public holiday eve. Should be like this every year.

Nice try, but the record is 30,047 (Bris v Melb) in Round 2 2023.
Good stat to find, though.

Expect our crowds to revert to pre-2016 levels if this continues.
Yeah definitely disappointing today in performance and the crowds I feel will be underwhelming in the coming weeks too.

Rounds 1, 7 & 8 have been the only 'normal' 9 game rounds so far this year - and they've all topped 400k and become the 3 highest attended rounds in history.
Fair to say the crowds are going ok at the moment.

Since Andrew Dillon has taken over the role of CEO scheduling seems to have improved dramatically. Big games falling on big time slots, utilising key holidays to advantage, implementing 'rivalry rounds' and the like all while staying within the parameters of their obligations to player health, fixture fairness, stadium and TV.
He came out with a plan for fixturing, changed a few cogs and delivered. Credit where credit is due.
So what is the total overall for the round did if go over 400k?

Blues v dees is massive unders
I would say the pies / eagles would be higher but for it being on Mothers Day
Thanks - was worth a shot!

By the way, there's 202 rounds with 9 games and this round comes in 2nd on that list. You were that close.
No Blues and Dees is not massive unders.
Thursday night and Carlton are coming off a loss in a game that had 88K people attend. There will be a drop off from them.
Thursday nights are no good for crowds normally.
Last year round 22 the game drew 68k on a Saturday night (albeit, clashing with the Matildas Quarter Final).
Its going to be similar, around the 60-65K mark.
