Surprised to see Townsville were down at all! I understand this thread isn't really about them and your probably saying its only 66 people, but with the year they had and how feral there fans are, wow!
Adelaide needs to bite the bullet (no pun intended) and this offseason, do some strong commercial campagning. Ofcourse this costs strong money aswell. But it costs money to make money. This team/sport needs to turn around its forgotten image. There were nights when there was absoultely nothing else on in Adelaide this season, and still half full stadiums, unacceptable!
Maybe the low crowds were due to the boring season previous. If this is the case, and the admin have to conduct surveys case studies etc to find this type of info out, then advertise, explaing that this is a new, more exciting team.
I still remember the amount of people that I TOLD, when Willie Farley returned! He's a charasmatic, good looking guy, get his face on TV at the start of the year selling tickets!
