Social Media

Collingwood fans may scoff, but NRL teams boast significantly more followers than their AFL counterparts.

Remarkably, rugby league teams dominate the top rankings of total social media followers across Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. The Brisbane Broncos, Melbourne Storm, New Zealand Warriors and South Sydney Rabbitohs all have a massive online presence, dwarfing some of their cross-code rivals ...

Top 10 clubs by followers:

1. Brisbane Broncos: 1,062,252

2. Melbourne Storm: 894,326

3. Warriors: 799,744

4. South Sydney Rabbitohs: 781,187

5. Collingwood Football Club: 756,220

6. Essendon Football Club: 682,638

7. Richmond Football Club: 659,195

8. Hawthorn Football Club: 623,176

9. West Coast Eagles: 619,982

10. Carlton Football Club: 594,541

I noticed the list doesnt specify what "followers" means.

I follow the Age and Herald Sun on twitter. Does that make me a fan? Hardly

I't also not surprising that a solo club in a population of 2 million people would have a large social media following. That's like Melbourne having only 3 clubs. LOL

you're a classic loser. You start up a thread then when someone makes some counter points you dont engage in discussion, you label them excuses. Fuck off

Didn't seem to stop Collingwood from being No.1 5 years ago.

You know what social media is and how it works . It was only a few weeks back you were trying to make out that Face book was the only form of social media we dominated . So now we can add that to Fox, Kayo ,average and total ratings :cheers:



And I've got numerous gold medals that suggest otherwise :cheers:

Well the article or graph lump all social media together, so we have no idea which code dominates twitter or insta.

I will say when I look at twitter feeds on days both codes are playing the AFL is invariably well ahead on tweet traffic

Pity that many Bronco followers (and other top “followed” NRL teams) don’t follow them to a game.

Many seem to prefer a monthly subscription to fox. Much better view and comfort.
