that list just of Lions and Suns players from Qld?
Just Suns - Lions have a decent list also.
In that case, there will be more players from Queensland on the Lions list along with the other 16 AFL teams!

It’s a no wonder the League fans are in delusions and fear

I think you'll find a few on the Lion's list for sure - but yes, there are also plenty across other AFL clubs. QLD is a good breading ground for AFL.

NSW I am not sure as much - you will find enough from the Riverina area - as has always been the case - Aussie rules bleeds well into NSW across the Victorian border - obviously the opposite is not true - but there are more and more players coming from in and around the sydney areas - I think Heeney is one such person. Jarrod Witts is from NSW - Sydney. Also, many private school are having Aussie rules as part of their interschool comps in NSW - given Rugby Union is dying away.

I don’t listen to crap, and you are full of it.

Oh! That’s a good one.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.
Rugby league, Australias most popular game in some of North Eastern Australia.

Maybe. Not sure gc region gets ratings on it own or included in Brisbane. I suspect, like me, if you follow AFL in qld, you’d have Fox anyway.

yep Gold Coast are counted in Brisbane Metro Figures..
North NSW is different however (regional)

maybe, maybe not>> if this were the case FTA would not get bigger ratings than FOX>
FTA is still the bigger drawcard for viewers

FTA gets bigger ratings than Fox? You sure?


Anyway - I can only speak for myself but when I moved here that’s when I felt I had to get Fox as pies would be playing and they’d have the suns or Brisbane playing. That is the sole reason I got Fox.
