I happened to catch the end of the Port Adelaide Vs Essendon game and when port won they played the team song over the PA system and everyone in the crowd was singing it at the top of their lungs for like 5 minutes, all clapping in tune to the song... It was pretty amazing, i have never seen anything like that at a league game, id be amazed if even a 10th of NRL supporters knew their club song. Nothing like that ever happens in rugby league, it would ad so much to the atmosphere if it did.
I suppose it could be the difference in cultures of the 2 sports i dont know, it just appears to me that AFL fans are a lot more fanatical than league fans.
