Canteen Worker said:The double price of tickets and the move from much fewer bronze tickets (then at $65) to mostly silver tickets for the same seats at $165 has been a real turn-off. When you think we had a full house against Melbourne in 2008 with about 70000 Manly supporters there, shows that something else is affecting people's enthusiasm to attend.
yes your exactly right and also has put off the neutral supporters as well as a lot of country people who used to come down for the event. The NRL will have problems in the early stage sales as well next year. a lot of supporters whose teams, particualrly souths havent made it, have got very badly burnt this year.
