No we all didn’t turn up! Wasn’t a force only problem! Rebels even when flying didn’t have big crowds! The force was just the team that was knifed! I was mortified over the years turning up to Melbourne, BRisbane and Sydney expecting to see bigger crowds- not always away games for the force! The crowds were embarrassing! The worst night I remember at home was a 7800 crowd at NIB! In torrential rain! Most games were over 11000 but I remember the hey days of Subi and the 25000 to 30000 crowds. The move to NiB kept us to 22000 I think and can be corrected here -2016! The crowds were no worse and in fact usually better crowds than Melbourne or ACT even Tahs games. That’s if rebs even published them!
We can blame each other but the thing is no one has the fortitude to be into things for the long haul so growing the game will always be in jeopardy!
