AFL low crowds, since 2004

Two is company, but where's the footy crowd?

THE AFL is on track to record its lowest average match crowds since 2004 and television broadcasters are reporting mixed results in audiences for games this season.

The patchy results have added to growing calls for the AFL to reform its fixture to improve the closeness of games and the fairness of the competition.

The average attendance at AFL games at the end of round 22 was 34,950 - the lowest average crowd per game since 2004.

Channel Seven has recorded a 3.4 per cent decline in national metropolitan audiences this season for Thursday and Friday night AFL broadcasts and a 2 per cent audience decline for Sunday afternoon football.
