Crowd size isn't really so much of an issue in the NRL, though, with the fat fees they get from their TV deals. JT regularly played for the Cowboys in Townsville in front of 10k crowds. How many would turn up to watch him at the DW? A lot more than that!
Fair point but gotta remember every single game here is televised, I wonder what the SL attendances would be if that was the case.
However, as doom and gloom as it seems I have to say one thing SL has and always will have over NRL is game day atmospheres. If there's one thing I miss about home it's hearing 'We arrrrre the boyysss...' ring around the stadium on away days. SL has the fans, its up to the boys upstairs to pull the strings and get them to the games!
