I would be surprised if any club doesn't include non-attending season ticket holders these days.

They need to implement a licencing system immiediatly to stem the downturn

Given the average age of a UK rugby league fan and your apathy towards replacing fans who pass away, we've still got 30 odd years left...

What has the NRL got against suburban grounds? They seem intent on clubs playing in massive stadiums that have a capacity 5 times bigger than attendances.

Suburban grounds seem fit for purpose for all clubs (except Brisbane who have the suncorp) and create a better atmosphere and sense of occasion.

Here's a clue re suburban grounds.
1. Look at the attendance table
2. Consider the 5 lowest drawing Sydney teams
3. Consider what sort of grounds these teams play in

Bingo!

Allianz Stadium at 45000 is over double the size Souths or the Roosters need, but that's not too bad. ANZ at over 80000 is ridiculous. Stadiums that are less than half full, or even less than a quarter full suck the atmosphere out, they don't add to the match day experience for fans and come across as non events on TV.
