Pretty normal in North America - the fans don't do spontanious chanting like you see in Europe.

I've been to sold-out games at Madison Square Garden and Metlife Stadium where most of the crowd noise was PA-led - it's just the culture.

It's not just in North America, when we went to Australia in February, the Hull and Wigan fans were often recorded by the Aussies because they couldn't believe the chanting and loved it. We also went to the WCC in Melbourne and whilst it was a fantastic attendance, the only atmosphere was in the corner where the Leeds fans were.

Its what all the Aussie players say when they play over here they can’t believe the singing and atmosphere the only have to look at what Jackson Hastings said about the atmosphere at Salford and that ground is three quarters empty every time they play

You mate have never been out of Corley let alone an NRL game. I have and SOO clearly always has a good atmosphere. At club level it varies from club to club ground to ground and game to game. Roosters fans are basically dead whist at the other end Penrith and Parramatts crowds can be very lively though the latter have had very little to get excited about of late.

There is even a little singing now at some clubs but not up to UK levels. I don’t personally know which I prefer they are just different.

To be fair to Salford they probably make the most noise per head in attendance of any club.
