Official Crowd Figues are "bullshit"?

Last year the dunnies flooded no matter what the crowd was! On Saturday everything was fine though, i didnt notice any problems except the line,, at times there was a huge line up for the Gentlemans Room.

P.S. Did the dunnies behind the Groggies bar flood again like every other time you get a good crowd?

Nah, weirdly enough they didn't.

Good to hear, even though we don't go to Prossie this year.

Watching the game on tv I thought the crowd looke like 6-7,000. Looking at your photo's only seems to confirm my theory. Definately looks like a bigger crowd than the last few Dogs-Roosters games held there and they would've been in the 4-5,000 region.

Last years Dogs / North game had a bigger crowd IMHO, that game it was near on impossible to walk past the stands, Saturday it wasn't a problem.

Cant agree with you Ian. The crowd infront of the Grandstand was very busy and the 3 grandstands were full for the first time in many years.

Last year against the Dogs, I could hardly get past the front of the stands, on Sat., I took my daughter to get donuts by the BBQ, and didn't really have a problem getting through.
I though 4,500 to 5,000 was about all there was, which was still a good turnout, but I was expecting a bigger crowd.

I agree with you Ian, although I remember the Port game better as it took me forever to walk around the Grandstand side last year but no probs this year.

Mrs Wedgie made the point she saw quite a few gaps in the stands on Saturday as opposed to the game at the Bay and a couple of games at Prossie last year.

As you said, still a great crowd though.
