I have been to three games so far this season with very differing crowds.
- Rnd 1 - Bulleen vs Canberra - Sunday afternoon
Full house at Veneto, not sure of the capacity but 300ish
- Rnd 2 - Bulleen vs Logan - Sunday afternoon
At Broadmeadows, full-ish maybe 150-200, not bad for given the opposition and the location but expected a few more given the Milner and Penaluna play Big V (ABA) for the local team.
- Rnd 3 - Bendigo vs Dandenong - Friday night
Geelong crowd would have been disappointing for the Spirit, maybe 200. Great game, being able to promote that Harrower was playing earlier may have helped. Great venue to WNBL big and modern (not that it has been upgraded for like ten years) and heaps better than Veneto for the fan.
Do the WNBL publish crowd figures?
What have crowds been like in other states?
Also was part of the 9308 at the Tigers/Dragons clash on Saturday night. WNBL and NBL have to get together and do a Bulleen/Dandenong game before the next Tigers/Dragons game at HiSense Arena, no offence to The Cage but for most impact need a bigger stadium and the central location for all fans.
