Not a terrible crowd I guess with 10,253 showing up.  I would have expected 20K-25K people to attend the first match, to be honest. Hindmarsh Stadium doesn't hold that many.

What has the public reception of it been like? I haven't watched any highlights of the match or read the news coverage of it, but it's interesting to hear that it has received a lot of negative press!

This from ABC (I love the headline! ): AFLX: If you wanted to kill AFL stone-dead, you'd turn it into this hollow yawn-fest.

Most of the footy forums I’ve read today it’s mostly negative. I think it’s DOA.

That's a very negative headline! I didn't expect the criticism to be that bad!

And because of this the forum is not worth reading most of the time ). I used to but don’t post on any of them these days, just a lurker. Why did you get banned, if I may ask?
