Well if you are getting 8842 (which i think is great for you and long may it grow) it is impossible for us to get 5k more as we can onlyt get just over 10000 in the ground.

Im very happy with Kr gettin 8000 at the moment as i can remember not that long ago on sunday nights walking up 10mins before kick off and been able to count the fans in the east stand

We all have our coverts

not quite sure what you are getting at but just to clarify i was in the east stand always but as you had to walk all the way around the ground from the west stand to the east you could have time to count

i think the proof of the pudding will come next year, will these new ST holders renew at increased rates? have they been convinced that giants are worth supporting full time?

of course a grand final or cup final appearance would help

Hopefully they will. I know of at least one bloke who was tempted in by the reduced price for him and his son as there's often not a lot for them to do on a Sunday afternoon. This despite neither of them having attended RL at all before and having next to no knowledge of the game.

They haven't gone to every game but the ones they have attended they've enjoyed the non stop action nature of the sport and are seriously thinking of renewing next year. His son's six and if he then gets hooked, starts buying merchandise and perhaps taking his friends along you're up and running with the next generation.
If that's repeated a couple of thousand times over then Davey's pulled a master stroke.
