Since Magpies became Power Reserves their home game crowds
2014 - 3251pg (3rd - behind Norwood & Glenelg, ahead of Sturt)
2015 - 2861pg (3rd - behind Norwood & Glenelg, ahead of Sturt)
2016 - 2191pg (6th - behind Norwood, Sturt, Glenelg, Central & Eagles, still ahead of North)
2017 - 2722pg (4th (Begind Norwood, Sturt & Glenelg)
Fair to say last 4 years with AFL reserves teams involved the top 4 for crowds have been Norwood, Sturt, Glenelg & Port

No surprise, alot more appeal going to Norwood with bars and food in the area than the cold expanses of suburban Woodville. Adelaide Oval has changed the landscape for what people want out of going to the footy.

Norwood is a very nice venue. A lot of people I know at the footy these days will attend games at Norwood and possibly Glenelg, but would otherwise not attend away games.

Agreed. For me I enjoy going to the City to see a game of footy and have a few beers and a feed. I also enjoy more so going to my local amateur club having cheap beers and watching a good standard game then mingling with mates and players afterwards. IMO the SANFL is stuck in between and most clubs are going to find it hard to attract new supporters to such suburban areas.

Beer price more than matches the increase in standard and enjoyment (includes my visit to Norwood Oval in May)
Better footy and atmosphere IMO at the SANFL. This after I've paid for my season membership to Glenelg games that I can't all attend.
However $5 beers at the GSFL.....

Crowds are up with seven teams. Down with three, including quite significantly down with Adelaide (they were well over -500 down on last year before playing in front of 3,300 at Norwood last weekend).

...are actually lower than the lowest Total (home and away) average crowd.
South 1,877
Sides that play those 4 venues in the second half of the year might find their overall numbers come down.
P.S. Did Adelaide play a home game this year?
