That is 1 in every 15 people who live in the shire.


That’s great compared to say the storm who have about 1 in every 250 people just in Melbourne.
With no other rugby league competition what so ever.

A) not all your fans are locals

B) It just emphasises how small your catchment is to begin with....

With parra on track for over 25k members this year could they be at 30k in the next year or 2? Most probably if they perform well. It would be a pain if after a year or 2 of WSS opening fans are complaining about a sold out sign. Is there a option for a 40k redovelopment in 10yrs time?

Nah, sell outs are probably a good thing. It makes people get in early and commit...

So there fore it makes even more of a better result for the sharks.

Yes, you has set a very low bar and jumped right over it. seven thumbs up....

On the other side, Melbourne just have bigger crowds (an ass is an ass no matter where it comes from, this "percentage of local population" doesnt mean shit). And then having a bigger local population just means, even though they are already bigger than you, they have more space to grow.

Really these numbers just prove that your club is in a bad location....

Unfortunately for you that’s not how stats work.

It means Melbourne should be way more popular when you compare their numbers to my little club.

I get what you're trying to say and I agree, Storm do have more members than the Sharks.

Considering they have the entire state of Victoria with no other rugby league team in competition with them ...then you’d have to say that 20k is piss poor
Melbourne after all is the sporting capital of Australia so they say.

AFL gets more to a judiciary hearing.

I feel like I'd be repeating myself if I said I see what you are trying to say and I agree, Storm do have more members than the Sharks.

It’s ok to be repeatedly wrong.
The storm repeated their mistakes 4 years in a row too.

I'd feel so much more offended if I was a Storm fan. For the record Storm have more members than my club too, because 20,000 is bigger than 14,000.. damn this metric system crap to hell.
