If I didn't already know the attendance figure and somebody had told me 28,000, I would have believed them.  The place fills out really well at 2/3.
You had me at meat tornado.

Look, any other team that was going to be rooted to the bottom of the ladder all season due to form would have less support than what we had through this year.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ he was pointing at the fact it was promoted as a 'SELL-OUT'

Doesnt help when ppl buy a shitload of $1 tickets but mates pull out or they just buy them for the sake of it.. then there's Storm members who couldnt make it.....

I'm just annoyed at the fact that despite all the emotion, the game, the atmosphere etc etc all he can talk about is the stadium 'only' beeing 2 thirds full

Put simple, anyone who didn't go to the game missed out on an unforgettable day!

P.S Loved Adam Blair's windmilling arm party trick to put on Tolman's try!!!

ha ha my gut feeling came true.  I knew you would be posting some type of tripe on this forum tonight.

If you managed to get to the game, please tell us you stayed for the lap of honour and caught the fast train home.

I share the sentiment that if you didnt go, you MISSED OUT! And I'm not only saying that cos I met Luvin today, the game was quite good also :P

Re: "Sell-out". To be fair, they only sold 15,500 in the first batch and 2,000 in the second. With roughly 500 being sold on the day, thats 18,000. There was 20,500. I personally beleive it's because they reserved so many for members (not wrongly, but its prob a big factor why there were a few scattered seats empty...)

Amazing day

If you really were there, you'd be able to tell us the song that played during the victory lap, right?
