Crowd vs Blues

Post: # 1817182Post WellardSaint »

This is a compo game for the China one,
which was supposed to be at Marvel.

Free GA admission, so I imagine a fair number will go.

I think 29,000
[Edit: I have now looked up our last 4 games vs Blues,
2017 at Etihad was 38k, the others were over 30k as well.]

This being a Sat arvo game, I reckon 35k

Blues fans will be up and about with Teague being appointed this week. They'll fancy their chances.

I reckon 43,000 if the weather holds up (which it looks like it should).

I don't care if Cripps gets 35 touches- as long as our back 6 can successfully repel the invasions.
And, as mentioned elsewhere, there's a lot of height in the Blues' fwd line, so ground ball can be cleared easy.

Just need to spoil their marking, or outmark them.
