Hi Good Dees people.

Just wondering what people think the round one rematch crowd will be?

TX.

 

I'll say 54k

I think a lot of ppl are still hesitant to be around big crowds or comfortable watching from home.

Also Wednesday night doesn't help.

 

Exclude anyone who lives outside of greater Melbourne, exclude families with young kids, exclude anyone with a serious job. 

In fact exclude a hell of a lot of people who don’t have the luxury of going on a Wednesday night or need to be in bed at a reasonable hour. 

Oh I forgot it’s televised. Stations and advertisers will be elated.

Judging by how Melbourne traffic has returned to nightmare levels I predict 81,116.

I have a feeling the attendance will surprise a few.

Im going to be positive and say 91,345.

This can misconstrued.

 

I am saying I will be there and after I will be Covid positive.

 

91000


Given this is a thread about numbers, I thought I’d throw in that todays date is a palindrome (22/02/2022). But I digress.

I think the crowd size will be somewhat dependent on ticket prices. I thought last years Anzac Eve would be around 75K but it was only mid 50’s. I know people who didn’t go because it was just too expensive.

That said, my guess is 70K, including three generations of dees tragics in my family (and a black sheep doggies supporter)

57k, just to put an exclamation mark on it😂

You beat me to it. Haha

 


We'll do well to get 60k and I think that would have been the case whichever day or night the game was played on. Finals aside neither have been able to attract supporters through the gates in big numbers. That said it's still double what you'd usually get for this fixture.

Didn't see your prediction at first DZ but must acknowledge it 😉

For a replay of the GF the attendance should be 61,118. I don't mind the different location, afterall, I got to see the original 😁and how beautiful it was!

Around 51K. If raining 40K

still a lot of people avoiding public gatherings

As well as being a palindrome, it’s an ambigram…

reads the same upside down. 🤓


66,666

I'd be surprised if there's less than 60,000 there.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
