-61,287 at the MCG...congrats to Roost It with a prediction of 61,509...that's two wins in three weeks

-I thought the crowd was actually pretty good. We did get over that dreaded 60,000 mark. I thought the volume was good (especially for jack watts and when the players ran out) except im sure we were all a little dissapointed considering most of us overestimates...

-what are peoples thoughts on the crowd size?

As a number, a little disappointing. We build this game up as our grand final of 2009, it's talked about all year, it got even more publicity this year with Watts as well.

However, for the first time in my short memory I felt as though there was an equal amount of Melbourne supporters to Collingwood supporters. Which was brilliant. The roar when Watts got that free kick was really quite loud (from the MCC anyway).

Overall, I felt pleased with the MFC turnout, but I was hoping for closer to 70,000.

Almost 50% higher than the round 2 clash with collingwood. Considering the weather id say a good crowd.
