How many saints tragics do we expect to see at the intra-club game on Friday? My guess is 3,000-4,000 with very long queues to get a snag and/or a beer. I am hoping that the membership & merchandise queues are even longer !!

If there are 3 or 4 thousand there, 5 to 15 hundred will see nothing.
I was there today and there is only room for about 2,500 spectators.
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell

Hmmm, I am thinking more likely 2000ish? Some people just may not be able to make it by that time...
I am looking forward to it

I would doubt that...

Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!

I get the beer, but I will give you a straw (normal size) and I will get the thick shack size...
So we are still able to at least share that drink....
and you still get that water

I'm hoping about 500-800 people, I want to be able to see so I don't want too many people there. Have to take into account the hot weather too.

See people will grizzle about our 5pm start....but Richmond has theirs at 10am this morning..which I'm sure would have brought out the "Why dont the Club think of the fans" brigade even more
I reckon we'll get a couple of thousand

Areas where people can sit are the Huggins Stand, and perhaps Bays 1 to 4 of the only available seating in the main stand.
Plus standing in the animal enclosure, and to the flank/50 metre arc just past the Huggins stand.
The rest of the former outer is fenced off.
If people aren't allowed in the remnants of the main stand, it would be hard to fit much more than about 1,000 in IMO.
