just below their marvel average this season. drops the season average to 60,233 at home, and 41,418 at Marvel.
The dreaded early 40,000s for us.
Hopefully the win today’s sets us up nicely for Geelong at the ‘G!
Although cats supporters won’t be too enthused of late..
That Essendon Marvel home average of 41,418 is just about the ceiling for Essendon, certainly for games that aren’t ’must see’ matches.
The Blues have approx 1,500 less reserved seat holders and this helps it still get max 45-46K into the ground compared to the Bombers ceiling 43-44k. This is based on where they start selling reserved seats at each clubs home games on level 3. Interesting, both clubs might need to revert to ‘members seating bays’ for their lower level reserved seat categories to get more seats filled at matches.
No, both Melbourne v GWS and Melbourne v Port are channel 7 games.
Hmm. This site says otherwise with Ess v Suns in 7
Anyway i dont like footy anymore.
AFL broadcasting guide is a better bet.Hmm. This site says otherwise with Ess v Suns in 7
Anyway i dont like footy anymore.
If You are also in Qld, you will get the Gold Coast game on 7 but it is a fox broadcast. The rest of the country gets the Melbourne game unfortunately
Yeah it has the potential, but not including big 4 games, you would be surprised how infrequently the opportunity presents with the way the AFL keep us hostage at Docklands and how they fixture our MCG games.
You really need to be like Coll, Rich or Ess in the 90's playing 15+ games a year at the G so that when the stars align you are there waiting to grab it.
40,637 at Perth Stadium, becoming the largest crowd between Freo and Gold Coast by over 5,000.
Edit: this is the third time the two teams have played at Perth Stadium. The first was actually a Gold Coast home game during the 2018 Commonwealth Games, and is currently the Suns largest ‘home crowd’ ever. The second was in 2021 with covid capacity limits impacting the crowd. So this is the first time for an unrestricted crowd for a Freo home game at Perth Stadium.

That kind of crowd is absolutely in the territory of any big 4 club home game vs gcs. Well done Freo fans.

Fremantle's crowds this year have been bloody awesome:
Rd 2 vs Brisbane - 40,604
Rd 4 vs Adelaide - 51,037
Rd 8 vs Bulldogs - 45,931
Rd 10 vs Sydney - 46,198
Rd 12 vs Collingwood - 52,035
Rd 15 vs Gold Coast - 40,637
Average home crowd so far - 46,074
And their run home:
Rd 17 vs Richmond
Rd 19 vs Melbourne
Rd 20 vs West Coast
Rd 22 vs Geelong
Rd 24 vs Port Adelaide
If they keep fighting for a solid finals spot, there will be some more great crowds in there. A lot of games against big teams or other teams fighting for similar finals spots as them + a home derby which is always an easy sellout.
All will be 40k+, many getting closer to 45-50k. A game vs Port Adelaide is probably the most likely to have a smaller crowd - but given this one is in the final round it could be very important to the finals, so could end up being very big.
It would slot in at no.7 for largest crowd Gold Coast have ever payed in front of, behind each of the West Coast and Adelaide games.

All seats SOLD OUT for SUNS v Collingwood
The Gold Coast SUNS can announce all seats for the club’s Round 16 home match against Collingwood have been sold.
Preaching to the Choir.
Bays are the way forward.
Why sell 50,000 seats when you can sell 55,000 and get a full house.

Reserved Bays where members are required to comfirm attendance and are then allocated a seat may work better.
Then the clubs would know what bays are expected to be empty and could put those on sale to the public.
Understand Collingwood did something like this for King's Birthday.

So far this season we've had:
Brisbane, North, West Coast and the Bulldogs are the only teams not to get a crowd that would break into their top ten.
- 45 instances of the best crowd ever with that particular Home/Away/Venue combination
- 29 instances of the best crowd ever with that Home/Away combination at any venue
- 16 instances of the best crowd ever between the particular clubs

Interesting figures considering all the talk around member no shows affecting crowds.
Richmond half year membership update shows 50% of our 3121 membership show rate and 45% total membership average show rate.
Obviously based off a 2 win season to date.

Fascinating Rouel_14 , thank you for this info. Essendon have recently introduced a new ‘Gold’ member category offering ‘access to seating on level 2 at Marvel Stadium’ (S44-46). Clearly a trial and sign of what’s coming I’d say. Essendon would be pretty clear that a sell out at Marvel resulting in ‘only’ 40,840 seats used is a big missed opportunity on many fronts.
I remember when Richmond made the move it was largely unpopular and it has happened in stages, but now pretty much all of level 2 is bays.
It used to be just N7-13, now it’s all the Shane Warne (n1-15) and all the Ponsford n29-36, only keeping the Olympic stand reserve seats (unsure why).
Level P remains reserved seats too I believe.
Benny Gale come and addressed each section at half time of each home game and copped it week after week after week.
That said the majority changed in 2019 and the club had the whole GF guarantee as pretty good leverage for no members walking away or ripping it up.

I have no idea how tickets are selling but gut feel suggests this will draw ~73-75,000. I say this on basis these big club fixtures have been selling heaps of tickets upon being released to market based on previous sellouts. I get Tigers struggling but big Club clashes aren’t drawing 55-60,000 like they did pre covid. Footy crowds have exploded based on much earlier pre sales, locking in good crowds for apparent ordinary fixtures. I might be off the mark though.
