Not too many sources in that.

Anyway, I think Perth is the go and finals will be on Qld. There really is no long term benefit in on off games in non traditional states. Look at SoO ... When played in Melbourne gets a heap of media that week but long term no real growth in rl in that state where it is basically invisible outside the Storm. No growth of any significance in grassroots with 1 leaugue covering the whole state ... like 13 teams. So having a one off gf on qld don’t think will add too much to grow afl ... which has a pretty high profile anyway at grass roots.

I think it should be in QLD for one big reason.

QLD saved the AFL season.

Hahahaha!!! So this info is off the Gemba report which is basically disgruntled NRL clubs who don't want to see the money divided into 17 rather than 16 clubs.

The report says more people are interested in Soccer and Basketball than Rugby League lolololololololo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gee Wookster surely you can see through this BS.

In fact I'm sure you can and do. I have great admiration for your cognitive functions my friend.

I posted the information without comment fuckwit. Its not my information, and you can stick your admiration up your own ass where it can join your head.

Good on ya Wookely.....I realise you posted without comment and I commend you for that. It's what I do regularly so it's good to see you following the lead.

As far as the issue at hand: objectivity is a good tool my friend. You seem to be devoid of it. Rabid partitionship is your go.

I think we need to have intelligent conversations Wookley. I am willing to work with you to make this site bigger and better than the sad thing it currently is.

PM me is you are interested in going forward my dear friend.

Nice find Wookie.

This confirms what we've known for years. AFL has a strong footing in NRL states while NRL is barely a blip in AFL states.

Overall AFL is king, conceded by an NRL report

23 of 40 is 2/3rds is it? :lol:

As the data shows AFL is extremely strong in 4 states and has a clear presence in 2. The NRL is strong in 2 states and barely rates a mention in the others. That's the truth

If you are going to say those places are mixed you better put Gold Coast on there as mixed by those metrics. I’d say afl is way bigger in Gold Coast than Rl is in Mildura lol.

And Wagga is clearly now mixed… the whole Riverina has a very strong afl base. Even old Roy was stating that the whole area has fallen to afl just a week or so back on offenders.
