THE ANZAC Day long weekend saw the sixth-highest crowd total for a round in the AFL-VFL competition's history.
A total of 364,538 people watched the nine matches.
That mark was achieved despite the Anzac Day crowd of 85,082 for Collingwood and Essendon being the lowest since 2009, which was a very wet day.
Previously in sixth place had been the opening round this year.
The crowd numbers through five rounds have set a new record of 1,652,245, eclipsing the mark set in 2013.
The biggest attendance ever came in round 15, 2013, which saw two crowds of at least 78,000 – Carlton v Collingwood and Geelong v Hawthorn.
