Security upgrade at GIO Stadium

[Raidersfan]

2008 - Raiders 21 - 14 StG
2009 - Raiders 24 - 12 StG
2010 - Raiders 32 - 16 StG

Mind you I can remember them cheering Trent Barrett diving over the line .. opps went off a bit early there

[Raidersfan]

Have a feeling we out cheered the doggies fans a few weeks back

We out cheered the Bulldogs fans at Belmore?
Ooooof. There goes that last ounce of credibility you had in this discussion

It's like you don't understand that you don't have to win the game to make the most noise.
But I've seen enough of these type of chats, people like you and GE have absolutely no ability to be objective about our fan base.

Think I'll just shadow box this thread

Ohh really ... says the Pig the most objective of objectives on this forum

You guys on Bay72 didn't make any noise from memory ... just sat there and took it from opposition supporters .. yea ?

You just keep on that shadow boxing mate

[DJ89]

I don't know why they're doing this, but I blame Sam Williams for it.

What on earth are you on about?

[Schifty]

So not everyone will be getting scanned?

[Thombre]

we are often out cheered by opposition teams, particularly Sydney teams. Anything to build atmosphere has to be good

Vuvuzela's?

Those are even worse.

what about 65cm bull horns?

[Thombre]

but a fan with a drum is very different to a marching band of steel drums GE

I like Hbomb's horn being blown at the right moments, the older lady with her cow bell etc etc

you need fan led stuff rather then a mc yelling out "cheer now"

on ya cat! I reakon its pretty peachy too!

[-TW-]

If its like Manuka its random

You've just proved my point
The reason that group existed was because of the poor atmosphere at home games
And we out cheered a lot of home crowds in games we got beat in. That's what we prided ourselves on. Winning the game doesn't mean you didn't out cheer the home crowd

The dogs and Dragons fans show up the GIO in numbers and make a lot more noise during the game than the home Raiders fans do. Play to play those guys smoke us every year. The fact we make noise when we score or win doesn't change those facts

If your blinkers are on so tight as to want to argue that, well... BOLWE.

So you are saying you were out cheered in 2008, 2009, 2010 StG games, yea ?

[Seiffert82]

I sat in the northern terrace at the Titans game and there was a group with drums and chants. I LOVED IT! Great atmosphere and everyone was having a ball. It would be great to see more of it.

The northern terrace is the place to be. Full stop. Those blokes with the drums just make it better.

When we got lapped in 90% of away games it's all we had

Are you dense? Yes. That's what I'm saying
They showed up every year and gave the home crowd a **** bath. Bay 72 can only do so much, if the other 6950 raiders fans gave as good as Bay 72 did we wouldn't be having this discussion

And since the RA disbanded, atmosphere at GIO has returned to something slightly above that of Woden library

6950 hahaha ... the crowd in those games were 14400 19350 20445 ... I'm sure the Raiders crowd were out done in each and EVERY one

See that is where your credibility just doesn't stand the test

Only polite clapping allowed guys

c'mon Pig show me how in those games those mighty STG fans "... gave the home crowd a **** bath ..." in the process of being doubled on the score board

[CJ42]

I don't think there's any game at Canberra Stadium I've been to where there are more opposition fans. However there have been a few times in recent years where the opposition fans have outdone the locals in terms of noise.

There's no way on earth the Meninga Stand can be entirely made up of opposition supporters. At least the front half of the seats are taken up by Raiders gold members.

The WORD.

There you go CJ ... suggest you keep your receipts when you submit your tax return this year lest you get caught with outlandish, unjustified claims mate.

Oh dear. There has been games where it's atleast 50/50 whether or not those of you who get offended (hot tip: it's not offensive) about it say so or not.
I haven't stated one "fact" either.

No worries mate ... I'm listening ... just point out which one

hey CJ ... you and the Pig don't work for Clive Palmer do you ?

It's weird that your picking on these games, I remember thinking how outnumbered we were by dragons fans in the last few years also, the two games they "won" for us to beat them on the buzzer they would have had close to more supporters than us.

Really ... pick a game and let's dissect the facts

That horrible flogging we got from the tigpies 2014 we were outnumbered massively, i was in the gavel tongue stand just thousands of tigers fans booing the raiders onto the park

[Schifty]

There's been a lot of opposition fans around our seats in the Tongue-Miller Stand.

Sometimes we've wondered is KW organised tickets in the middle of an opposition allocated area.

the reason I say that is that the crowd for the game was less than our season average

Would have needed about 60 bus loads or 1300 cars down the hume

[rovert]

Wow. The thread title is somewhat misleading. .

Not really .. the level of security required at GIO is consistent with the number of away supporters ... the more of them the more security is required ... simples

[Raidersfan]

Anyway I've checked the the origin of ticket sales for the past decade, credit card numbers, licence plate recognition data and noise meters placed strategically around the ground and they all back up my claims. So there.
