Canterbury Bulldogs have set a new benchmark, drawing a record crowd for a regular season NRL game — a milestone that captain Stephen Crichton is determined to see repeated regularly. The electric atmosphere at Accor Stadium marked a major moment for the club, reflecting its resurgence and the growing enthusiasm among fans.
Crichton, who has brought leadership and passion since taking on the captaincy, believes this is just the beginning. “This club has a massive following, and we’re building something special. If we keep performing, these crowds will keep showing up,” he said.
The Bulldogs’ strong on-field form, paired with a community-first culture, is helping to re-engage a once-frustrated fanbase. With a young, dynamic squad and Crichton at the helm, the team is not just chasing wins but also fostering a legacy.
Club officials are now targeting even bigger numbers for future matches, eyeing marquee clashes to further ignite fan support. As the Bulldogs continue to rise, Crichton’s vision is clear: making massive home crowds not just a record — but the norm.
