Not a bad turnout from us.
Must be hard to turn up when you know it will be a 100 point plus loss. GWS twilight next Sunday so I'd expect well under 20k

I reckon your worst crowd since 1990 can be considered bad and not "a good turn out".

If the club is expecting 35k then it would be considered a disappointment. But in saying that its obvious for all that the back against the wall motivation is drying up and the team is playing like exactly what they are. A VFL side with some kids and 2 - 3 A graders.

Am I the only one shocked Port are favourites today v the Bulldogs?

Port have been smashed by top 8 sides bar 1 all year and this is after working over bottom teams leading up to this on 2-3 seperate occasions. Reckon I'll throw some coin behind the dogs comfortably.

Was always dependant on how many Hawks fans turn up.
I realistically think only 15-20k of our fans will turn up each week

Of course it's bad but with all the media harping on all week how it would be a 100 plus win plus the fans having no hope why would you go? Our home game so 28-30k are season ticket holders and that section was half empty, they were the ones who didn't turn up. Hawks fans traditionally hate Etihad and have had it good for so long they aren't even bothered to turn up to watch a thumping win. Crowds will continually fall especially with a heap of Sunday twilight games still to come
