These numbers are quite realistic. So... is it IMPOSSIBLE to imagine a final match in ANZ Stadium with 80k?

"After a week in which the minor premiers' biggest names were linked to moves to rugby league, the Waratahs confirmed late on Thursday that more than half of the 43,500 seats at Allianz Stadium had been sold just a day after tickets went on general sale.
Less than 20,000 remained more than nine days out from the match. Club officials are hoping to sell out as early as this weekend."

Nothing is impossible, but we still have to win this weekend to put ANZ into the frame.
I'll be going, but you'll lose a few of the wankerati if another 80cm of snow falls in the high country.
Should it come to pass that we host the final, I'd like to see at least 56,000 there so we can hold the record for Super Rugby attendance in addition to the other records we've got in the franchise. Plus it would be a massive shot in the arm for NSW rugby, and benefit all levels of the game in this country.
Whilst this is fantastic and I love the optimism I'm not sure I'd be nearly as confident as they are.
You've got to think that at this stage the majority of people who have bought tickets are people who have been coming all season.
Clearly there will be a substantial bump in sales on Sunday/Monday from opposition fans when they know their team is playing in this match but how many Tahs fans are sitting back waiting to buy tickets depending on who is playing?
There is a reason why tickets sold so well in the member presales and the first hour or two of the general public sale. The keen Tahs fans are really excited as you'd expect them to be.
The difficulty now is finding that extra 10-15k people who haven't attended for a few seasons.

You would have to imagine that once our opponents are confirmed post Saturday night, there’ll be a surge of ticket sales.
There’s a lot of Sydney based Brumbies supporters, plus the ones that will travel.
I would also imagine most the Sydney based Kiwis will support the Chiefs so we could see plenty of Kiwis loading up on tickets.
Either way, it will come close to a sell out.
The story is a bit strange as the SFS holds 44000 seats.
If the Tahs have sold 25000, and the stadium member section holds 10,000, then there are probably no more than 9000 tickets available to be purchased.

Don't Gold members need to reserve a seat for events that can possibly sell out or risk missing out?
Does anyone know how many seats in that area?
If the Tahs have actually sold 25k tickets and that doesn't include any Stadium members that is huge. I doubt that is the case though.

The members isn't reserved seating. First come, first served.
It seats about 10K I reckon.

I think it will sell out. And I think so long as they don't put a premium on the ticket prices that the final would sell out too if it's against the Crusaders. Price 30k tickets at $20 and I think they'd sell them.
If the final is against the Sharks it would be a smaller crowd.

Eggszackery.I think that the finals tickets should not be a forgone conclusion, and I'm getting a bit tetchy with any talk of it!
Few bridges to cross yet.
As Tahs fans, we ought to know waaaayyyyy better.
I'm going to be a nervous wreck from about Wednesday.

You win. That's a great place to watch!
There goes the dream of an all Aussie final.
Highlanders give it a red hot go but fall short against the Shorks, so it will be Tahs vs Ponies next week, with the winner to face the Crusaders.
