Saturday’s grand final between Richmond and Adelaide attracted a monster crowd of 100,021.
The figure fell just three short of the MCG’s official capacity of 100,024.
However, it didn’t even rank in the Tigers’ top 10 all-time crowds!
But, unsurprisingly, it was the biggest crowd Adelaide have ever played in front of in their 27-year history.
