Does anyone have a handle on how the average attendances so far this year compare with
those of the last couple of years?

Crowds on par with last year I'd say. What sort of crowd did Richmond get at Punt Road (anyone?).

1 v 2 Box Hill v Port should draw a good crowd.

I'd love to see followers from each up talk about if there own club is getting more or less support through the gates. There are a few clubs that aren't really represented on this forum by active posters (Casey are a good example)

Port Melbourne crowds are about the same as 2013.

I'd be interested to know if Coburgs crowds are up or down on last year. Same for Williamstown.

About 1500 for the Richmond v Box Hill game on the weekend.

Although early this year has seen some great crowds. The Frankston Anzac day clash was estimated by some Frankston fans to be 5,000,

Punt road crowd last weekend was reported as 2,500 k in the media - I think it was stated as a full house.

Footscrays 1st match at home had 3,000 (media report),

and the Essendon vs Collingwood clash had a very healthy crowd with one of the stands full.

Port Melbourne has seen it maintain their healthy crowds however they are expected to improve on last years attendances if they win their next two games. before yuo say it Digs I know "if my uncle had..........aunty"

I would have said they were up but maybe I've been going to better games. Decent crowds at Ports last couple - at Windy Hill and Box Hill. They're still smaller than they should be I reckon.
