Darren said:It seems Sydney teams are just not great drawcards. Fox probably has alot to do with it with it beamed in live at home. I imagine alot of families etc can't justify $100-150 to watch a game anymore. Coming up from the Gong is alot more dearer now. A 4 hour return trip is about $40-$50 in fuel, $25 to get in, $8 for tolls and $20 bucks for food is hard to justify.
Darren said:I expect the locals to pack out the place. I don't get why they don't go? Their costs are much less, even a 3-6 game pass makes it cheap. Wollongong fans got blase about going to Steeler games and eventually they went broke. If I was 10 minutes away I'd be there every week.
Darren said:If you are trying to say a losing Roosters outfit are drawcards, then you got me there. It was nice to be able to sit comfortably and not pay $60, get a great view, good food and a great win at the new "fortress"! A very winning place for us. Nearly a home ground advantage.
