The crowd figure is fine – Remember the Lions are in Rugby Code Heartland and the Wallabies v Seth Africa drew 47,000 up the road at the same time and despite Vossys best efforts to promote the Gabba match..
What surprised us was the appearance of K Rudd at the game – Apparently a big R/U fan it seems.
The Lions play like their Coach did – A fierce attack on the ball – Typified by the Lions Sherman who did not get into any best player list, that we could see- Very strange to say the least.
The crowd roar that went up when the classy Daniel Rich nailed that great goal in the last quarter was very very loud.
Overall the match was a great advertisement for our game up there and a lot of the fans will be back next year.

The Lions have doen well to get this far, it was a exciting game and a good comeback, but was the crowd dissapointing (32,700) or was it about what they expected.

For my money they will get absolutely smashed by WB next week who really should have beat Geelong, but wasted a lot of oppurtunities.

WB will run them off their feet.
