Each clubs most famous supporter

[Captain Apollo]

Darrel Braithwaite, Gus Worland, Brett Ogle, Amanda Keller, Dave Warner and Steve Smith. Apparently Malcom Turnbull is a fan but cant imagine he’d be able to name a single player somehow.

You can add Tim Webster, Mark Bouris (he's also on the Board of Directors for the club), Peter O'Malley, Doug Bollinger, Sir Peter Cosgrove, Kate Waterhouse, Simon Burke and Paul Kelly (ex-AFL player) to the list.

Molly Meldrum is a staunch Melbourne Storm fan.

Hugh Jackman goes for the Manly Sea Eagles.

Mark Weber supports the Canberra Raiders.

Jimmy Barnes supports the Wests Tigers.

Brendan Cowell supports the Cronulla Sharks.

Mick Fanning supports the Penrith Panthers.

There are some great names on this list. It just shits me that with every famous Victorian it is well known who their team is. Our clubs famous fans generally seem disinterested.
Am I the only one who thinks the clubs should do a whole lot more to make their famous fans hard core fans?

I think the most infamous Warriors fan in NZ at the moment was someone (who I shall not name, he doesn't deserve it) who was recently convicted of killing a policeman & wore a Warriors jersey at his sentencing.

I felt angry enough at the guy BEFORE that appearance popped up in the news....
