[QUOTE="Jaguares, post: 641097, member: 63264"] I understand what you said, bud, my comment was more for ABs2011 who doesn't understand the difference between macroeconomics and microeconomics. For example, Brazil and Mexico are countries with huge economies (macroeconomic terms) but poor in microeconomic terms. Switzerland and Norway in macroeconomic terms are lower than Brazil or Mexico but in microeconomic terms they are better than Brazil and Mexico. With respect to the other, of course no team has the OBLIGATION to fill their stadiums. It's just an expression, it's like saying: Wallabies are required to win all their games because they were twice world champions. It's an expression of course no team is forced to do so, is not a requirement, just a suggestion. As traditional teams settled in big cities with big stadiums, one would expect them to have larger crowds. Regarding Waratahs, I know that there is loyal Union supporters in Sydney, then one expects bigger crowds at their games. In the last years they were in low and declined crowds this year have a competitive team again and the crowd has improved a bit, but one expects more from a city like Sydney, the largest city in Oceania.
