Richmond Tigers supporters are:
* 62% more likely to have iPrimus as their Internet Service Provider; No they're not
* 38% more likely to have consumed Pepsi in the last 7 days; Hate Pepsi Coke anyday of the year.
* 12% more likely to agree that “I’m worried about interest rates at the moment”; Hello Einsteins I reckon ppl supporting most clubs are worried about them.
Yeah is this based on what. If we had half decent results over the last quarter of a century I am sure we would be situated higher on the ladder. These things fluctuate with the times. 5 Years ago teams like the Cats would have been a few rungs below where they are now but a flag does wonders. ::)

There is a name for this type of statistical nonsense - it's called Data Mining - making corellations out of statistics that are not really valid.
Here is an interesting article if you follow share trading (hope the link works)

Not a bad summary of the worthiness of the Morgan poll, especially the bit about Sydney and Brisbane's supposed huge fan base.
