Given that figure would have come from the SCG Trust who manage the SCG and Allianz it's probably pretty trustworthy.
Much like the attendance figure for NiB would come from the stadium operator not RugbyWA.

I reckon 7000 is very good for a super hot Thursday evening game after having lost all 8 of our home games last year.
We should get much more against the Kings being a Sunday game. Just in my case instead of being just me, it should be 4 with the wife and kids. Now if we manage to beat the Brumbies next week and manage 2 close losses or even a surprise win against either the Crusaders or the Blues we should get a very good turnout.
Out of interest how many did the Rebels get last Thursday night?
They apparently did better than us with 10,265 but no doubt that we will have more than 7k for our next home game specially if we beat the Brumbies and do well in NZ against the Crusaders and Blues.

I argued with myself about calling you fantapants so n my mind I was being kind.
