Biggest sporting club in the ACT is clearly the ACT Brumbies, proven more recently too with the Raiders told to move aside as the Brumbies have first dibs on Canberra Stadium.
Oh and the Brumbies have a major sponsor too. How's the search for a sponsor going for the Raiders Dave?

the Raiders have closer to 4,000 members ATM , ahead of their tally in late 2010 & almost double GWS
both the Raiders & Brumbies had around the same numbers of members last year ..... 10,000 ( that was a record for the Raiders ) & I have no doubt the Raiders will at least match their numbers from last year in 2012 .
The Raiders have weren't kicked off Canberra Stadium , Foxtel made a major blunder ... allocating a game to the raiders on a day that they'd already agreed to cover a Brumbies game at the same venue ....
the Raiders have proven consistently they are the number one team in Canberra , no sport can get near them when they are televised ... the Brumbies only wish they had that pulling power on TV down here ... RL the number one sport in Canberra ... 4 of the top 5 TV shows in 2011 down here ... all RL
not one giggleball telecast making the top 10 .. how embarrasing for a code that claims it has some influence down here
the Raiders will find a sponsor soon enough thanks for your concern Beaussie .. but as I explained ...the Raiders have a very solid financial base with 10 licensed clubs all feeding into their coffers .... so unlike you ... they are far from concerned.
