41000 against the bombers - their home game. I reckom ppl are getting sick to death of em. Would have thought saints supporters would be there in huge numbers due to the fact we haven't played in Melbourne for 2 weeks.

Normally expect a crowd b/w 45 and 50G. Hope the AFL are gettin the msg. I missed my first Melbourne based game all year tonight.

I stayed home for this one as well. Didn't sound like there were many Saints fans going by the TV noise.

Its a terrible time slot. By late sunday, people are geting ready to wind down in preparation for the week, not march off to a football game.

To have 6 sunday twilight games this year is a JOKE.

Our whole fixture this year has been a disgrace. 1 mcg game in round 22, against the bottom team.....

The TV ratings is all Dimwit flogs himself about re Twilight footy.

I mean, if the AFL were fair-dinkum, they'd ditch Twilight games (except maybe for Perth due to the 2 hour time difference - ie. Perth game starting at 2.40pm = 4.40pm here), and force Foxtel to show two games live at once on two channels both starting at 2.10pm!!!

That aint rocket science is it???

Not a great time slot, but next year one would think we won't get as many....
