Yeah the crowd looked pathetic, I take back everything I said about Sevens increasing in popularity. Interesting that is the reason for the low numbers. I found the sold out Sydney Sevens last year to be both a party atmosphere and a family friendly event (with mid strength beer). It might have something to do with Union fans here being of a higher standard while the bogans follow League. I guess in New Zealand most fans, both classy and feral, follow Union. Also, it probably didn't hurt ticket sales that Sydney has a higher population than all of NZ combined.
Thanked for the use of Bogan.

Long live the death of 7's?
