I knew it wouldn't be too long before someone would bring up a topic along these lines... :oops: :roll: :roll:

35 to 40K in a GF played in June, not bad mate, not bad. Still a ong way to go and while I don't have much cred saying it's not just a 2 horse race as yet with the way my team played today, I think that some people can't help but get ahead of themselves sometimes !!?? :oops: :lol:

Speaking of horses, they might need to get those clydesdales from Granite Island to help pull these ever increasing bandwagons going around town of late :wink:

Joke people, a joke. Don't start carrying on about sour grapes or how I'm a DH, just trying to have a laugh after my sides sh!t efforts today !!?? :(

Big Phil... :D

if they were to build a city stadium that could fit 60000 they would fill it easy!

if & it is if atm sturt play glenelg in the gf i think they'd get 40,000+ & i dare say that it would be bigger than a grand final with central playing either sturt or glenelg

as a matter of interest what was the 2002 gf crowd ?

35,187; 34,819 was at the 2000 GF and 39,135 at the 1999 GF.

You would be right with your comment bayman, because this is really a compliment to Centrals fans and their club - more neutrals will go along to it because they are sick of seeing them in there. :)

i would agree that there would be 40,000+ to the game. first time since 1974 that sturt and glenelg would have played in the gf.

Tell the SANFL to print the tickets now then, it would be great to get that sort of crowd to a GF so we might as well call the season to an end now and play the GF next week at AAMI :roll: :wink: :wink:

IF and it's a big IF, the Doggies don't get there act together cme finals time to be paying in the GF themselves, I reckon a Sturt v Glenelg grannie wouldn't be a bad game to go to as a neutral supporter :? :roll: :wink:

STILL A LONG WAY TO GO LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, A LONG WAY TO GO BEFORE FINALS ACTION !!?? :wink: :roll:

GO U DOGGIES... :D

Long long way to go, anything can happen with injuries which the Bays have yet to receive. If it does happen 40 k but no way a sell out.

Anyway there are other sides in the mix still I reckon. Centrals for starters ( 2 losses in a row , big deal) and a smokey the Eagles.

45k plus and if its a Centrals v Sturt or Centrals v Glenelg GF, should get close to 40K.

Not too sure if that's appropriate Cutterman ?

But I do agree it's a stupid thread.
