Crowd size

Featured Replies

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.

117,245 with the newly built MCG roof on display


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.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
