Of the top 20 crowd numbers last year we had 2
Essendon had 5
Richmond had 10
Collingwood had 7
Hawthorn had 5
How many of the 'top 20' crowds were at a ground outside the MCG? 3. They were all in Perth with 2 WA derbys and last years grand finalists against this years grand finalists.
Given we play only half our games at the MCG, and given we play well over half our away games elsewhere, it puts us behind the 8-ball to begin with.
Both Tigers and Pies were flying last year and play the majority of their games at the G.
Bombers are a bit like us, but they still get 'Dream time' and 'ANZAC day' so thats a given 2 every year.
Just on the Hawks, they only averaged less than 2000 people more than we did on average for the year in Home and Away. They made top 4.
