Niners Takeover in Australia | NFL News

0:00On September 7th, so the Niners are heading down to Melbourne, Australia for a game this Thursday and Coach Shanahan is predicting a familiar scene. He thinks the crowd at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, which holds about 100,000 people, is going to be packed with Niners fans, just like back home. It sounds like the Rams might have tried to avoid that same red and gold takeover in Los Angeles by agreeing to this international game. They've had a tough time against San Francisco lately, losing six out of their last seven home games against them, though they did snag a playoff when, a couple of years ago, this is a big deal because it's the first time the NFL is playing a game in Australia. The hope is that it'll be a massive event, but the question is whether the home team will actually feel like they have home field advantage with so. Many traveling fans expected, Shanahan's pretty confident that the faithful, as the Niners fan base is known, will make their presence felt loud and clear across the globe. He's not expecting the atmosphere to be much different from what they usually experience.

1:04It'll be interesting to see how this plays out on Thursday night. 100,000 seats is a lot of real estate, and if it's filled with Niners faithful, it'll be a unique kind of home game for the Rams to say. The least. That wraps NFL News Today, brought to you with AI.
