You really can't make a judgement about how loud it was at the ground based on the TV coverage. They have to tone it down in order to make the commentary heard.

And 10,000 of the 12 are on Day release.
At least we as supporters go and support our teams!!!
The crowd was up and about last night,you had to be there.

I notice C10 and Foxtel have the crowd volumes higher than C7.
I watched the replay this morning and was bored, C7 really know how to kill the excitement.
At the game last night, it was a great atmosphere. That's why I'll always prefer going to games then watching it on TV.

I find when listening to games on Fox Sports, the crowd noise at games comes through quite loud. However when listening to games on 7 and 10, crowd noise is much softer. And 7 and 10 do this so we can hear their crap commentary teams go on about how much they love Judd.
I would prefer to be able to watch the footy on tv with only the sound of the crowd noise coming through the speakers.

you're right. 7 would rather turn the mic up on their shit commentators

Yeah we should just give Friday nights to St Kilda so they can put on spectacles like their round 1 match vs Geelong

Ch7 must have triple glazing on their commentary box and no crowd mics. Noise was great on the radio.
If St Kilda were on every 2nd Friday night the TV rights would be worth half their current value.

The Geelong vs Collingwood PF in 2007 was the loudest match I've ever been to (which includes the 07 GF), with 98k people with the crowd about half and half the stands were shaking whenever a team kicked a goal.
I got home to watch the replay of the last quarter and it sounded like a crowd of 40-50k in Round 1....
No points for guessing who televised it.

That was the best game I ever attended crowd wise.
TV just doesn't capture the intensity of the crowd atmosphere, and it's disappointing.
Makes attending the games all the more better.

Channel 9 and Fox have the crowd mics amped up to 11 for NRL games, making 12,000 fans sound like 50,000. The reverse is the case with AFL coverage.
Aint that the truth? The thugby needs all the help it can get to make their pathetic game better than it is!
I reckon some of the crowd figures are so fake they must count the people twice.

This year it sounds to me like they have turned down the crowd volume on both 7 and 10. Makes it sound like the crowds aren't getting into the game.
the tv networks seem to suffer under the delusion that we would rather hear the commentary than the crowd. just another example of the media mistaking itself as part of the story.
Channel 10 have been doing the samething for a while, absolutely detest how both them and 7 take out the atmosphere so we can hear there self indulgent wank commentary teams.
Channel 9 had the best crowd mics.

I take it you are just guessing this what goes on? i'd love to get some proof of this.
Was talking about this last night. I love listening on the radio because you can really hear the crowd, and the energy is awesome. It just makes such a difference, and it's incredible that 7 wouldn't be on top of such a simple thing that could improve their coverage so much.

Footy fan bashed at MCG last night
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/man-bashed-at-mcg/story-e6frf7jo-1226036517787
This was up behind from where I was sitting. I saw the son of the man screaming up at some guys. About 15 minutes later when the siren went finally some security guards came running up the steps looking for the attackers, the victom was being treated outside the aisle entrance with a swollen eye and blood all over his face with his kids scared and crying.
I can't believe they bashed this man, and then they just continued to watch the footy, the crowd did nothing.... would have been a terrible sight for young kids.
If you witnessed the attack or have any information please contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppers.com.au

Channel 7 are learning from ESPN it seems. Try watching Soccer or any other sport they cover and they take the crowd out and replace it with the commentators mics on Volume 100
I thought the atmosphere was very very flat last night.
Good point OP
No Carlton supporters left early in droves which was disappointing..
I suppose we were all waiting for the pies to put the blues to bed in the second half of the last quarter and blow it out to 8-10 goals.
Unfortunately the pies put the cue in the rack at 3qtr time which was unfortunate for the supporters on such an important night for the club

lol @ some of the whingeing
Then again I suppose people need something new to complain about, they are in the worst era in AFL for 70% of fans
I personally hate the radio coverage, I must be alone in when listening to the radio due to lack of TV coverage that I would like to actually know what is happening, yet everyone just wants to hear the roar of the crowd, wow that sounds exciting
