Can we break the 1mil attendance barrier for the first time ever, this season?


To date (Rd.12) . . . 610,699 people have attended Carlton (home & away) games at an average of 50,892.

The remaining 10 games with mixed optimistic and conservative estimates and all dependent on weather, form etc...

Essendon* (MCG) - 65,000
Richmond (MCG) - 65,000
St Kilda (MCG) - 50,000
Sydney (TD) - 40,000
Western Bulldogs (TD) - 35,000
Adelaide (AAMI) - 40,000
Port Adelaide (TD) - 35,000
North Melbourne (TD) - 35,000
Brisbane Lions (GABBA) - 25,000
Hawthorn (TD) - 45,000*

Estimate for last 10 rounds - 450,000 added to the current total gives us 1,045,699 est.

*Edit

The Richmond game is some sort of celebration...will get way more than 65K closer to 80K+ esp since a traditional Sat arvo game :wink:

The Hawthorn game is at the Dome, according to the current fixture. However, if we keep up our current form, phaps it will get switched to the MCG

Not a chance.

Despite the AFL talking about "best fit" in regards to fixturing, not a single match has been switched ever.

Is that the first time ever, ever. Or just the first time by Carlton?

First by Carlton due to majority of games played at Princes Park.

Richmond, Collingwood and Essendon* have all achieved this before.


Update to Rd.13

669,876 @ 51,529

Estimate - 1,039,876

Maybe we could switch our home games to Princes Park next year and aim for 600,000!


:lol:

How much does the club make per home game attendee?

More the merrier, but games at Telstra Dome (supposedly) make us less per head than the MCG.

A fair chance it will be 1,100,000 after the Hawthorn game...

Edit: just realised this game is at the Dome and not the 'G'. Looks like Carlton v Hawthorn may have best and second best AFL attendances at the Dome after this week...

Nah, we'll have to peg it back a bit since the Heatley Stand has been knocked over. 500K tops. :P
