yeah, that 33k really is grim for AFL.
when NRL gets 10k in Perth or Adelaide its embarrassing...but then I think about the population difference between those cities and SEQ, and the fact that it was the clash between the 2 local teams. yikes!
And after 40 years plus of having a team in Brisbane. The AFL are full of shit and no-one here is buying it outside of your leftie, elite, inner city snobs and the Victorian indoctrinated immigrants (we need to build that wall) who think Rugby League is too low brow for them.

You have to be f**ked in the head to look at everything in life through a left/right prism.

You have to be doubly f**ked in the head to think that AFL support in NSW and QLD is predominantly from "lefties".

I feel both sorry and bad for you just reading this.

its the fact that AFL gets pretty heavily promoted in SEQLD. NRL on the other hand gets very, very, very little exposure in Perth and Adelaide. It shows AFL probably wastes a lot of money for little return, at least on the TV ratings front

Given we have had no teams in the NRL in these markets for 30 years, lets hope that changes soon.

Umm have you checked out the Lions and Swans fans? Oh and I didn't say they were all elitist snobs, I did mention the Victorians, some of which would be absolute bogans would be a fair percentage too.

If the term leftie offends you I'll retract it and replace it with Greens voter.

Its completely apolitical.

But honestly if anything the majority of Lions and Swans fans would be dyed in the wool Liberal Party supporters (particulary in Sydney)

I mean would you consider fans of the Storm to be of any political persuasion?

Storm isn't supported by inner city snobs... Victorian bogans... There's probably a few of those.
