Declining Brumbies crowds baffles Super Rugby chief amid win streak


Frustrated Brumbies chief executive Phil Thomson says the players are doing their part as the club desperately searches for ways to bring back Super Rugby crowds. TRACEYNEARMY/GETTY IMAGES The Brumbies' impressive form at home hasn't resulted in a boost in crowd numbers. Despite the impressive winning streak and some entertaining rugby, Canberra crowds are down 17 per cent this season after the opening two rounds averaged just 7267 fans. Brumbies home crowds are down almost 15 per cent on their previous worst which was set just two years ago at 8391 per game. "It is quite frustrating because the team is doing everything they can, you can't ask for more than winning all your home games," Thomson told AAP.
