Play Nice 2024 AFL and State League Attendance

Isn't there an opposite argument though? That a person who makes the effort to get themselves to a different city as a ticket holder is more likely to actually show up to the game, as opposed to a local resident that might have a ticket but then have something last-minute that prevents them from going, which is more likely in their existing city of residence/employment (or poor weather not stopping those who have made the effort for a new city but those that live there can't be bothered even if they've paid for it or whatever).

Yeah fair point. I guess it maybe balances out then. I just personally know of people who have missed interstate finals due to our unreliable airlines.

Edit: Speaking of, just come across this from earlier today

Still no word on the official attendance tonight. Though I did hear BT gloating about how the NRL game on next door was half empty.

44,053 according to SuperFooty on Twitter.

Will be interesting to see if footy fans and the media go after Cronulla (who have been around over 50 years) like they did to the giants last week. Basically the same crowd, for the same week of finals being a semi. Nuh i don't think so.

"Throughout the week, tickets were also being given away with Cowboys legend Johnathan Thurston buying $10,000 worth of tickets for Queensland fans living in NSW"

One fan suggested that Cronulla should be relocated.
IMO Cronulla is many times a better fit than North Sydney bears.
Perth is technically the longest city in the world stretching along the coast line - Perth Sharks fits really well,
plus it's additional status Cronulla to Perth like Fitzroy to Brisbane.

Weather is holding up in Melbourne and only standing room remains in the public ticketing allocation therefore it's safe to say that all seats will be taken in the General public and MCC areas.

Does anyone have an update on how the AFL Members are looking? Are there still seats available?

Just standing room remains in the AFL Members, at $92 a ticket for silver members.
