Storm were well down in Melbourne.
exaggerating numbers When it comes to crowds......

AFL has most certainly taken a share out of Rugby union> what percentage would be interesting..Fred wrote: Fri Jul 26, 2019 11:13 amSerious question. When you say Swans are team of the elite do you think they (AFL) have stepped into the void left by RU.
I also wonder whether this AFL v rl thing that we see mainly in the rl states is due to their being a culture of competition between rl and ru over the years as to which is better ‘, bigger etc. with ru no longer really in the race has AFL also stepped into that void?

i think the battle between League & Union is more in ENGLAND than it is here.

Many former Rugby fans are now AFL fans.

But one intriguing subplot in the war for football supremacy that is less discussed is the battle between Australian rules and rugby union that is playing out in parts of Sydney.
Yet, while the AFL has undeniably made inroads into rugby's turf at a grassroots level, it's in the professional realm where it is has really pulled away.
The Swans average attendances, TV ratings and memberships long ago surpassed those of the Waratahs and now completely dwarf them. And the eastern suburbs and north shore (as well as the Hills district and Sutherland shire) are **** the strongest areas for Swans members and fans, according to membership data viewed by the Herald.
