Just beat the previous record of 36K in 2010 when the likes of Scully, Trengove and Ricky Petterd where running amok.

That was a great win! Fev was playing for brissy. Felt like we were getting somewhere lol

Great crowd tonight- 20k for the Richmond v port game. Pathetic.ย

Also the night that Fev taunted Joel Macdonald about a winning a TV last time they played on each other, to which Macdonald replied "at least I've got a home to put a TV in"ย ๐Ÿ‘

I noticed on Twitter last night there were Herald Sun journos whipping up a frenzy amongst the Collingwood/Richmond/Carlton bogans about "low crowd".ย  We nearly doubled Richmond's crowd against Port Adelaide, and still they're sinking the slipper.ย ย 

I've had a look at the crowds on Thursday nights this year, last night's crowd was the third highest this year, the two games beating last night being the two Richmond v Carlton game.ย  It was also the largest Thursday night crowd involving an interstate team.

In short I'm at the stage of saying suck [censored], media.

Excellent crowd last night.

17,000 more than Richmond drew to its Thursday night game vs Port despite having double the members and not having lost three prior games going in. A H&A record for the two clubs.

Also was more than:

  1. Bulldogs v Geelong on a Friday night in Round 12 at Marvel
  2. Sydney v Richmond on a Friday night in Round 11
  3. St Kilda v Essendon, last Friday night

37,000 is an outstanding non school holiday crowd and will only strengthen the claims for more Thursday night games next year, particularly given the benefits of the floating fixture where the AFL can mix and match.

The club/AFL promoted the game well with $12 tickets but the BCNA event probably drew more people that it otherwise would've.

I'm not averse to attending Thursday night footy a couple of times a year but I'm hoping our week one final (assuming we qualify for finals and we're at the G) isn't on a Thursday night. Would much rather Friday night or Saturday twilight or night for our first final.

There will be a week one final on Thursday night.

Itโ€™s only half an hour earlier but makes a huge difference in terms of getting home on PT. And to people staying in the city after work killing time before the match, for example.ย

Agreed.

iirc the higher finishing team gets a say in the time slot of their finals, especially if a reigning premier.ย  It is another advantage of finishing 1 or 2.

And its safer late night travel as there is likely to be more people on the train at 10.30pm than 11.00pm.ย  It is only 30 mins but as you say it makes a difference.

So I got home just after 12:30 this morning, so will be one of the few times (if ever again) I bother doing a Thursday game, but I had today off work so wasnโ€™t too bad.

The music/flashing lights wasnโ€™t as annoying as I remember (have they turned it down or am I getting more deaf ๐Ÿ˜‚)ย 

Beer is horribly over priced at $12 for a mid strength but at least itโ€™s pirate life and not Carlton draught or VB.ย 

Only vegetarian options were a pastie and hot chips, no where else I saw had anything different but I may have missed it.

Lower costs will help, less crap across the speakers would also be good but I still hate Thursday and Monday games (not PH games of course)

But kudos to @Bring-Back-Powell for an awesome effort to get to Geelong on a Thur night (unless he/she lives in Geel anyway in which case you'd expect nothing else)

Where are their 30k members????? Another AFL beatup.

Last week Carlton Richmond got 50,000, we get 38,000 against an interstate team with a few old Fitzroy supporters, weโ€™re going ok with crowds, wish people would just shut up on this subject

Giants are the biggest waste of money in AFL history, the sooner theyโ€™re disbanded and their players spread around other clubs, but mainly the new Tasmanian club, the better

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
