2nd biggest home crowd vs Essendon
4th biggest H/A crowd vs Essendon
5th biggest crowd overall vs Essendon

The old turnstiles (well scanners these days) are starting to tick over again as the tiggy train bandwagon grows. We are freaking loud too when on a roll which makes for an awesome atmosphere. Well done to us Tiger supporters/members :thumbsup. The 19th man is getting bigger, stronger and louder :gotigers.

Saturday night was our first win in front of a 80k+ home crowd since 1982.

Wasn't there 93,000 at Sheedy / Hird's last game? We won that.

Good reason to stop selling home games from now on. If we make the finals this year we should ask the afl for the following 2012 draw  ;D

v coll, carl, ess, haw home and away at mcg - ave. 75,000 crowd
v adel(aami), wc(pat), frem(pat), syd(tels), bris(gabba) away - ave. 40,000 crowd
v geel, st kilda, syd, gc, port, w syd, melb home at mcg - ave. 45,000 crowd
v north, foots away at etidah - ave. 40,000 crowd


1.2 million fans  8)
