An interesting article in the Canberra Times today about the ACT govt's support of GWS and why GWS needs Canberra more than Canberra needs it. On these crowd figures, GWS should just rename themselves and move (or dissolve):
Manuka Oval: average 9804 (39,216 total)
Sydney Showground: average 6103 (36,617 total)
Manuka Oval highest crowd: 11,661
Sydney Showground highest crowd: 8754
