    Thats a long bow. It was only 1000 more than the worst ever crowd at ANZ for a pies game, and well less than half of the best crowd.

    But comparing SCG crowds, its 5000 less than last year.

    When have we had a bigger home crowd on an Easter long weekend?

    How much would the Roosters next door have knocked off our crowd? Fair overlap in the two supporter bases.

    Wonder what the W/L record vs Collingwood is at the two venues since 2000?
    He ate more cheese, than time allowed

    It's also a round 1 game, which has historically meant a lower attendance - prime example being 23k at ANZ last year. 34k for round 1 at the SCG is a huge effort!

    That was a GWS home game and their first ever game in the AFL so there were more neutrals than usual. It also wasn't a long weekend. Whenever we've played at home over the Easter long weekend, crowds have always been down.

    Oh well, at least they're probably happier than the ones that saw the game.

    barry isn't one to let the facts get in the way of his dislike of the SCG, it's too old for starters.....

    Watching the game it looked like their weren't as many Collingwood supporters as there normally are at ANZ. So that would have affected the numbers.

    There is no way we would have won by 80 points if it was at ANZ!

    The animal enclosure next to the Bradman Stand did seem rather small compared to previous years
