Sorry to point this out. I notice for the game between Manly and Eastern Suburbs at the Sydney Sports Ground on July 2, 1967.
-That you have Ken Day as Manly Captain for this game.
-Ken Day did not Captain Manly for this game.
-Fred Jones was Manly Captain for this game Instead of Day.

The only question to me would be why always 21,525, why not 21,526 or 21,524? It's interesting though.

Feedback/Suggestions / Quinlivan brothers
Last post by Max Turner - 14 May, 2024, 09:38:15 PM
Oscar and Allan's DOBs are completely wrong (including the year for Oscar), which appears to have come from Wikipedia. SSR Almanac lists the same DOBs I have found:
- Oscar Quinlivan's DOB should be 4 December 1896. His full name was Oscar John Quinlivan.
- Alan Quinlivan should be Allan, although Alan appears to be a common misspelling. Allan's DOB and birthplace should be 22 January 1915 in Taree, NSW. Full name was Allan Adrian Beresford Quinlivan.

- Clinton Quinlivan, born 8 May 1908 in Taree, NSW, died 12 November 1980. Full name was Clinton James Quinlivan.
- Leon Clinton, born 9 February 1913 in Taree, NSW, died 27 September 1989. Full name was Leon Gerald Clinton.
- Jack Quinlivan, born 9 July 1921 in Taree, NSW, died 23 October 1978. Full name was Jack Gregory Quinlivan.

- J Quinlivan was Jasper Quinlivan, born 13 April 1906 in Taree, NSW, died 20 November 1978. Full name was Jasper Arthur Quinlivan. He was a brother of all of the above.
- F Quinlivan was Fred Quinlivan, born 21 January 1899 in Taree, died 17 November 1976. Full name was Robert Frederick Quinlivan, and his nickname was Boy. He was a brother of all of the above.

They must sell tickets to a maximum which is slightly below venue capacity and leave some room for those entering with season passes and similar, as Greg says. But surely the people with passes would also be included in the crowd figure.

Penrith's QF against Parramatta in 2022 was above this (21,863), so what changed beginning in 2023?

I can only assume this is lazy reporting by the club or something, because a coincidence seems too unlikely.

Possibly, which is why I put the 96% figure in there. I have never come across something that before (except at Newtown Henson Park games LOL)

Could it be that they only sell a maximum 21,525 tickets and leave the extra capacity for other non-paying/non-crowd purposes.
