Your words.
you'd only be able to use that argument for a few weeks, months at the most as by the end of the nrl season, heck by half way through even.... your average at pirtek will be lower than theirs(yet again) for a second straight season.
so you pretty much get 2 seconds of fame then it teeters away...thats when reality hits as your little club takes a backseat to another one barely 3 yrs old
2k or whatever it is that seperates them is over a quarter of the raiders crowd. thats a margin of almost 25%. so 2k is very significant.
the a-league average seems to be doing very fine. it's currently 13,628 and will almost certainly be higher than last seasons which will be the 4th straight year of upside growth in crowds for my competition. something rugby league in this country hasn't been able to say since the 80's
particularly proud of my own club - nearly 19k average this season, 18k+ for 3 straight seasons. despite poor performance on the field...we're one of the biggest clubs in this state
