So any update with a PAX numbers late today? It sounds like we may have hit over 10,000?
The SFS Stadium Members are not included in these PAX numbers, as they use their normal passes on the day and don’t get an allocated (ticketek) ticket number.
Also will have the junior passes that are used up on the day – again they just turn up and not in the ticketed PAX numbering system.
The PAX numbers would include some corporate tickets, etc, so hopefully we can say we have pre-sold numbers looking like around 13,000 ... so far (including the expected members & junior passes on the day) ... i.e. after two days of ticket sales, which is not a bad sign.
Keep spreading the word for others to come along to the game and pre-purchase tickets as we want to improve on the 2011 crowd against Cowboys at the SFS just to show the media (!!) …
Remembering our really good crowds at Allianz (SFS) Stadium in recent times with semi’s (these being GF qualifiers semi’s – week 3 games) without a Sydney team playing against us (!):
Manly Sea Eagles 28 – 6 North Queensland Cowboys

Crowd: 32,611
Manly Sea Eagles 32 – 6 New Zealand Warriors
Sat 27 September 2008, 7:45 pm
