Sydney Swans top AFL supporter ladder well ahead of Hawks in tenth

    September 26 2014
    Finding No. 5838
    Topic: Public Opinion Special Poll

Grand Finalists the Sydney Swans lead the pack for the ninth straight year as the AFL’s most widely supported club – 1.135 million supporters. The Swans are streets ahead of Grand Final opponents Hawthorn (448,000 supporters) in tenth according to the latest data from Roy Morgan Research for the 12 months to June 2014.

The best supported clubs in the home of football, Victoria, are Collingwood (739,000) and Essendon (692,000) while the Brisbane Lions (634,000) are the second best supported club outside Victoria.

Losing Preliminary Final clubs Port Adelaide (243,000) and North Melbourne (209,000) are at the lower end of the support ladder in 2014, although they are ahead of the two newest clubs in the AFL that also have clearly the least number of supporters – Gold Coast Suns (107,000) and last of all the GWS Giants (64,000).

Obviously they counted every nuffer they polled in Sydney & Brisbane who answered - "Oh...um....yeah Swans/Lions I guess, though I don't really follow AFL that much" 

Guessing this poll wasn't all that scientific.....a set of rubbery figures if ever I've seen one....

Rubbish article, replace Carlton with RFC . Evidence: membership and average crowds. Oh and check numbers that travelled to SA for final, more than double the norm

I bet that every person who said Carlton also said that Kouta was their favorite player and were expecting him to have a big 2015.   ::)
