NSW Blues & Qld Maroons the two most popular national teams in Australia

[NRL&NFLweLaughATafl]

They average more viewers when they play than every single AFL team.

Swans4ever claims the Swans have the largest following in Sydney but that theory is blown out of the water when NSW Blues play.

The Queensland Maroons have more fans on facebook than the AFL as a whole lol

[NRL&NFLweLaughATafl]

Prove me wrong wookie. Can't hack some real facts.

[Fred]

The play three times a year.

[NRL&NFLweLaughATafl]

They are still a teams though. And still have a following.

[Fred]

Yes indeed they are still a team.....

Talking rep football seems to baffle & infuriate the fumblers .

The AFL GF last year outrated SOO last year and so far this year. So the Swans and Bulldogs obviously have more supporters

Bullshit
Just because your sport has no rep scene doesn't mean we discount our rep teams .
The whole afl superiority bullshit is viewed through a narrow domestic prism .
Here's some news .
Many many sports have rep teams .
Most of Those rep teams are popular .
But because your sport hasn't got one then other sports rep teams don't count .

Lol typical fumbler insular thinking.

Our GF drew a bigger crowd and Tv audience than your 'most popular' SOO teams.

But like everything on this forum, whenever the RL fans feel beaten they pull out the SOO card. It's basically their only play

[AFLcrap1]

Lol
Last year yes.
The year before we won .this year ..I'd say SOO 2 wil go very close .
Or game 3 if a decider .

Afl house will then ramp up the compromising of the comp to ensure that the midgets get to the Gf .

[Fred]

Yes... we should compare like with like. Could you imagine athletics australia claiming superiority in 2000 (?) cause Cathy freeman run rated its butt off?

[AFLcrap1]

That's one year Fred . We are talking yr after yr after yr .
In fact every year .
1 point for an unco fail

[Fred]

You get my point though. It would be like comparing a grand final to a home and away match then?

[leeroy*NRL*]

does anyone have figures of what these clubs generate
ticket sales / sponsorship etc etc per series or year....

Our sport doesnt want rep teams. We also arent the ones who keep bringing the afl and its lack of rep teams up.

And Dont fucking put words in my fucking mouth. I never said they dont count, I said they arent comparable to local teams.

Typical NRL fan desperate to prove they are bigger than a domestic comp thinking.

That's just further bullshit Wookie. Your mob have tried and tried but they couldn't pull it off. So they've decided to put all there efforts into there own domestic competition. That's fine. But that not the case with RL. Rep football is just as much apart of our season as your domestic season is to you.

Typical AFL fan , thinking his game superior despite getting less ratings and making less money!
