25,877

Will be a crap crowd per the go at the moment.

It should be a night game given the long weekend IMO

There's train alterations on Sunday as well which won't help. Blues are travelling ok so a few more of them might show up. Like to think we'd get close to 30k. Will be disappointing if we lose money on this one.


Opinions are like arseholes, everybody's got one.

There was only 27K last night for Ess/Hawks at Jihad on a Friday night. Crowds can be crap mid season and this year especially. Bugger all Saints fans will turn up. Having Roo out is a big negative crowd wise

Blues fans are excited for the first time in years .
Everyone is tipping them .
It should be a reasonable day so i'm thinking the crowd could be 60%+ carlton .
If this happens we could get 35 thousand there .
Which would be a great result.

27,000 sounds about right. Around 16,000 will be Carlton supporting arseholes, even though it's our home game. Boy, will they be insufferable sore winners if the Scumbaggers get up for them. I'm absolutely dreading tomorrow. Haven't felt this nauseous prior to a game since 2014.

If it weren't the QB I think this one would be 30-32k but things are dead around the place as people get away for the weekend.
I'll go with 26 666.

Seriously though, 48k is huge. What percentage of that would have been Saints fans?

30-40% I reckon. The blues have been having an unexpectedly good year and I suspect they could smell blood. Their fans were impressively loud in the first quarter but quietened down in the 2nd for some reason.

We had Carlton fans coming in and taking empty saints reserved seats. Security refused to do anything when a lady near me complained. Can't remember a crowd this big at jihad since Geelong 2009.
