Australasia Attendances : 2015-2019

Over the past five years, average attendances have been around the 15,000 mark. Some attendances were poor due to disappointing results, with others it made no difference. So to the teams.

Brisbane has by far the largest following, with a dip in 2019. Newcastle does really well and even an indifferent season just gone still had the turnstiles ticking over nicely. Melbourne had yet another fine season but for a city of that size, a few more would be expected.

Some fans travel huge distances to be at a North Queensland game and the crowd numbers are consistent. Canterbury, Souths and Paramatta are anything but consistent. The Auckland based franchise is also up and down as are the Wests Tigers. The rest have their ups and downs with a poor 2019 hitting St George hard.

The teams are either shaded purple (NSW) or salmon (elsewhere). The top attendance for a year is highlighted in green, second blue and third yellow.
