Seems to be quite a spike in 2005 then drops off the year after, a bit odd? Maybe some creative accounting?
Anyway, you can see nothing has changed over the last 15 seasons.
not a big fan of years averages. there is too many variables.
1. The day. sunday arvos are a different time to a monday night.
2. Opponent. Generally a local opponent would draw more away supporters.
3. Form. When ya losing the fairweathers (myself who has to do alot of travelling to get there) arent going to make that effort
4. Personnel. When the drawcards are injured (ie. most the first half of the year) people are less likely to attend.
Our home games this year we've had I think 2 sunday arvos, 4 saturdays, 2 mondays. Those mondays bring ya average down.
Compare our average to Brisbane with all fridays and a massive city, its hard to see where any team would compete with them
