The conditions looked pretty bad and some heavy rain, but congrats to the people that turned up and it was a good turn up too I am sure the boys appreciated it.
Well done all.

To think that over 16000 turned up at a suburban ground in pouring rain…thats a mighty statement of support for the Tigers side of things....& so much for the ARLs major Stadia vs suburban grounds "strategy".
Supporters make the decisions as to where they'll attend,not head office bureacrats!

What a magnificent crowd for such a dreadful day,weather wise
Good crowd all things considered…hopefully a similar crowd's in force for next weeks game against the Cows at Cambo....
Still like the NRL's stadium strategy though.....There's a good chance that game today gets 16k at ANZ given its more centralised location to the fan base and even if we get less, we're still looking a better financial outcome given the incentives were receive to play there....
Both games we've played at ANZ so far, we've cracked 20k and this will only increase as the team continues to improve....Don't get me wrong, I love footy at the suburban grounds as much as you guys but playing more games at ANZ in the future is more pragmatic in the long run...

Do we get the same result tho? it makes a huge difference with that Leichhardt crowd behind the team. The team even admit it makes a huge difference!

Great atmosphere there. nothing like a good sunday at Leichhardt even if its raining. just shows how loyal tigers fans are. Friday night game roosters vs bulldogs two massive fan bases and the same conditions 12,854 people. today the tigers and a team with a fan base that doesn't travel got around 16500 people good effort boys !!!
Hats off to the club really. They've urged fans to get behind the club, to become members and even those who haven't have clearly listened. 10,000 would've been a reluctant pass mark given the weather today, so to get 16,300 odd is a great effort.

When are the Tigers going to get an even break with the weather and home games
Hope as many as possible can get out to the Cowboys game
With the Cowboys coming off a Monday night , I have a good feeling (dependent on our injury issues of course )

I would have loved to be there today, rain and all, sucks living so far away from my team but well done to all the people who got out there, great crowd given the conditions!
Wouldn't see Dragqueen or Womanly fans brave those conditions in those numbers!

Geez thats terrible hope hes OK.
It really is a nightmare leaving the ground with people on the road and cars trying to get out
Im surprised road closures in the vicinity of the ground havent happened long before this….have always had this thought leaving LO
Resident players & officials only in & out of that peninsular
Great WTs crowd....as long as the attitude remains that the players showed today im sure we'll get good crowds

The overall promotion for this round was very very ordinary, thanks to the Tigers for making something of it!, yesterdays game at the SCG should have been a 3.00pm game, they posted the crowd at 26 000 but when the stands opposite the camera's appeared next to empty you have to doubt that.
The Sharks game would have pulled in close to double the figure if it had been a 7.30 game while the Panthers should have been playing on Sunday instead of the Storm V Titans, it's a pity that I have trouble getting to games these days but a big shout out to the fans that did turn out, looked great on the TV despite the rain.

Club still would have made more money with 10,000 less at ANZ so not really.
