23K -Dogs have no fans!

Post: # 1245264Post saintspremiers »

Terrible crowd today. A good 4,000 below par IMO.

The Dogs home game against the hawks a few weeks back only got 24K, so no one likes them.

I guess we have little support either. But most interstate clubs would've had more fans than the scraggers had today. They are true nothings now.

All the people that want us to sack half our players and reload at the draft might want to see the result. At least we would get a seat anywhere we wanted. I had to work today but would have loved to go and the weird time would have put plenty off too so maybe more would have otherwise?

Apparently we've got 35 thousand members !

I'd like to know if we have played in any games this year when 30 thousand of these members have actually turned up !

They are making it hard for their supporters.

I felt for Daniel Cross today, why so many of their other players aren't playing with that kind of passion I don't know?

Anyone remember that game in the 90s where us and the Doggies were near top of the ladder, Aussie Jones shook the hand of a doggie after the game and said "see you in 8 weeks" i.e. "We'll see you guys in the grand final"
What was the attendance on that day ?

Brian lake denied the dogs a grand final appearance in 09.

Must be crushing for their supporters not to even get to the big day in their peak.

That's at VFL Park which could draw more due to all the VFL members.

Sunday live on Channel 7 doesn't help either

We get bigger crowd numbers when an interstate team comes down. Pathetic effort.

Yep, thats the one. Media picked up on Aussie's comment saying "he was getting ahead of himself" and as we all know, the Roos put us out of the finals.

It was a Saints home game for crying out load!


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

Dont worry matrix, I was at the game and missed most of it.

It was like being at a T20 match except there were no dancing girls or fireworks.

Could have been some watching some obscure Olympic sport instead of that one sided dross.
