70,000 on Sunday?

[Timmuns 16]

Just wanted to know what people's thoughts were on DB expecting (or hoping really) 70,000 people at the game this Sunday... I'll be going and I know quite a few people who are too but I can't imagine a crowd that big (it'd be awesome if it was cos its our home game = some $ to the club).

Hope to see you guys there (not that I know what you guys look like... maybe if you wear red and blue so I'll know to look out for you lol)

I reckon 48,500

I reckon 48,500

that'd still be a good crowd I guess

who here is actually going?

[Little Goffy 12,727]

I was really annoyed by Caroline Wilsons totally idiotic comment that 'our home games had only drawn small crowds'.

We've only had one, Hawks Round 1, yes? 40,000 ish?

Now Carlton, and we're looking at 40,000+ again.

And I'll be there! Finally getting to make the trip, and I'm stoked.

Na, the Bulldogs game was our home game. But it is true what you say, we've only had one home game this year, I haven't actually read the article properly (just skimmed over it this morn. on the way to uni) but perhaps she was referring to our home games last year...?

Carlton supporters will be coming out of their caves after last week so with good weather I think 42,500. I just hope MFC supporters are motivated after the canning we have had in the media so far this year.

[Jones_a_legend 0]

Lets just hope that our supporters turn up and not shy away just because they think we will lose.

We need our supporters to be there rain, hail or shine, win or lose. confidence or no confidence.

One thing for sure is that I'll be there.

Do the research DD, our home game attendances are poor. And dont fall back on the Collingwood games. See the numbers against interstate clubs and NM that are not inflated by opposition clubs.

There is too much nit picking of good journalists article while completely missing the message.

We probably will get 40+K but about 30,000 will be Carlton.

[praha 10,315]

28k-35k. Anymore and you're all dreamin'

[dee-luded 2,958]

I reckon 48,500

Then I'll make it 48,501 as I walk in the turstile. :D

Carlton supporters don't live in Caves?

They live in Grotto's.

I'll be with a bunch of die-hards in M50 - come over and say g'day (we will be wearing red and blue so you should be able to find us)

[Adzman 2,085]

70K? Does that include split personalities??

The Carlton fans will be out in droves, still cannot see a crowd getting over 55k. Dees supporters are a rare enough breed when we are a top 4 team. We are rubble at the moment, so ony the die hards/sadists (yes, that includes my goodself) will be there.

70k is out of the question. 50 would be a good turnout. Fingers crossed for the club that we do get 50+, the funds will come in handy, as the membership numbers are not really going anywhere fast.

No, but it does include fleas.

The MCC prediction on their website is 39,000.

Interesting they on predict 55,000 for collingwood and north

[Gorgoroth 12,337]

I'll be there as always, I think 38,000

[Dee Fan 3,247]

I think we will get over 50,000 but 35,000 will be Carlton supporters, that will help fill our coffers but won't do much for the players. We seem to have trouble attracting over 15,000 Dees supporters to our games unless they are ones against Collingwood.

[AFI 3]

I'll be there, as always.

46500 is my call. would love to see 55
