Aren't these leagues falling further and further behind the biggest leagues though as money becomes more and more relevant? This will happen to us in Asia. 


It's possible, there will always be bigger fish, we don't have to be the biggest fish, we just have to be a healthy fish.

At the moment we're a small fish with white spot disease.

BR v WSW - 9,000
AU v WU - 7,500
MVFV v SFC - 17,000 (We always pull more against Sydney compared to Adelaide, plus a win last week and a loss for them might pull a few more though). 
CCM v Nix - 3,500
Glory v City - 8,000

Several things working against a good Adelaide crowd tomorrow- particularly the awkward kick off time of 4.30. Coronavirus might keep people away too, you never know.

At the moment we're a small fish with white spot disease.

In global terms, we aren't a small fish.  People make the mistake of comparing to the bigger euro leagues, or even to the J-League, but there are 200 national football leagues out there, and we easily sit in the top quartile, with room to spare.

in the 2006 FIFA World Count we were 52nd in the number of players and 87th in the number of professional players playing here.  There were 80 countries with no professional players.

Suncorp is a horrible look. Nothing but empty seats. If you couldn't hear the Den you would literally think that there is a no one there.

The A League is in so much trouble. It's relentless. It just keeps on getting worse.

Its only the top few that really count as big fish though. Below that, its just a bunch of little fish arguing about which is the giant amongst minnows.

undoubtedly, but below that, who is arguing the toss?  just enjoy your football and be done with it, it's not as if the A-League is about to disappear, so for those who are hoping it is, they will be disappointed

True. And they won't see pro-rel anytime soon either. A NSD? Maybe, who knows? Toss a coin. Or maybe it'll just be the expanded ffa cup idea instead...

yep, there'll be no P&R for a long time to come, it's unfortunate, but we just have to accept that that's the case

Corona virus and storms easily affected crowd attendance at Suncorp. Would not be surprised if all predictions this round are higher than the actual attendance.

So the Corona virus isn't stopping people from Brisbane going to work, just stopping them from going to the game

probably hasn't bitten yet, but if it continues to escalate, it will definitely impact sporting events (as is happening already)
you wonder how the opening of the NRL/AFL seasons will be, which are just around the corner

Woah, it's almost like choosing to not attend a sporting match is alot easier than not going to work everyday. Y'know, because people need money to survive and all.

"I'm scared of catching the Corona virus so from now on I'm only going to go to work". Yeah right. Brisbane's attendances have been consistent

If the Corona virus had anything to do with the fear of spending then those who had it wouldn't be travelling all over the world
