If its a Hawks home game they wont get more then the Tigers vs Blues cos Geelong fans are too tight to go to away games.

Carlton vs Richmond will be bigger. Supporters from both parties have such high hopes for this season and being rivals will draw a lot of fans. Judd vs Cousins is also a mouth watering battle that i would go to see by itself. I reckon it will be a great match, hopefully with a bit of biff in it.
Yes Hawks vs Geelong will be higher quality, but neither groups have as fierce passion as blues and tiges and smaller fan bases and I reckon Geelong have the wood over Hawthorn still and will give them a rolling.
So Blues vs Rich: 80,000+
Hawks vs Cats: 65,000 - 80,000
The moment 'Big 4' gets mentioned, Hawk supporters start getting bent out of shape. Who'd have thought???
Cousins V Judd is going to be all over the media from now until April. Hawk and Cat supporters will justifiably be looking forward to their match, but the media will be all over the other game like a rash.
That will bring the bigger crowd for sure.
Carlton vs Richmond will pull at least 20,000 more people than Hawthorn vs Geelong. As a mutual spectator I couldn't care less about any game of AFL that Geelong is involved in.
Last season the Hawks v Cats game was the most heavily pushed and most anticapated game of the season........they didnt play till round 17, + 1st vs 2nd and all that.
Carlton v Richmond pulled above 70k on both occasions after both finished in the bottom 2 the year before,and had been basket cases for quite a while.
Do you Carlton and Richmond fans truly think that there will be more neutrals wanting to watch Carlton v Richmond than Geelong v Hawthorn? There's a reason ours was the most attended GF in ages.
The reason your GF was the most attended in ages is because it was the first all Victorian GF in ages so it attracted a tonne of neutral supporters. I don't think many neutral supporters would go watch a GF replay. Tigers V Blues does not need neutral supporters to attend and will attract a large crowd of Tiger and Blues supporters.

Blues vs Tigers easily.
Hawks and Cats are big 4 wannabes. As a neutral I am far more interested in the Richmond/Carlton game.
Really, you don't think many neutral fans would like to go out on a Friday night to see two exciting teams battle it out in a rematch of the Grand Final?The reason your GF was the most attended in ages is because it was the first all Victorian GF in ages so it attracted a tonne of neutral supporters. I don't think many neutral supporters would go watch a GF replay. Tigers V Blues does not need neutral supporters to attend and will attract a large crowd of Tiger and Blues supporters.
The purists, the people who really appreciate the game, and relish seeing the game played at its highest possible level, would prefer to watch Hawthorn/Geelong...and easily. The GF replay, the 2 clear best teams in the competition, two teams that match up well and usually produce an awesome spectacle.
Ah yes, are pets allowed to games now? Will all your Tassie members come??, Oh and what about the Junior Riolis? Your club has so many different membership packages which cater for all needs, so many rich supporters (i.e. upperclass hawthorn) that you have more members than other clubs. We also cant deny that you combine the ticketed and non-ticketed can we, probably all out of Jeff kennetts insecurity of hawthorns inferior status to the big 4.Membership figures suggested otherwise
So clear cut that the Hawks lost to one of those bottom 50% teams.
