Big Crowd for the annual Merewether vs Wanderers ANZAC fixture: Merewether vs Wanderers do an ANZAC derby match every year, with the venue switching between Townson Oval (Merewether) and No.2 Sportsground (Wanderers). It is usually the biggest crowd, other than the Grand Final every year.

They weren't last year, but have been in most other years.
