The lowest collective IQ amongst supporters in the competition really pays dividends.  :dancing :yashin

So this data is only taken off a team via membership entry otherwise its not possible to know who supports who at games.

Not sure how you've come to that conclusion Monk

It is average crowd numbers. Has nothing to do with membership numbers

Simple take all the crowds in games that Richmond has played and divide by the number of rounds played. Gives you the average crowd number

What percentage of the crowd is actually there supporting Richmond isn't really relevant when talking about crowd numbers

Look at it this way. In the 3 big blockbuster games we've played total crowds have been 225k divide that by 3 and our average from those is 75k, doesn't matter what the break up of support is/was

For 30 years we've had the greatest unrealised potential for crowds => money => on field success.  Maybe Benny's 3 0 75 is starting to reap rewards.

I wonder why the Hawks are down?  Everyone thinks they are too old and done for mebe?  Both playing styles our n the Hawks are pretty ugly but that never stopped the swans getting good numbers and they used to play super ugly.

With them travelling well I'd be shocked if it wasn't 55k+
