AFL Gf smashes NRL GF on social media

[PerfectToATee]

nRL fans show their support for clubs by hitting like on Facebook. AFL fans show support by purchasing memberships and going to games. There lies the difference

And what on earth does the AFL following people have to do with them having more followers???

Not only do NRL fans like to show their code support by hitting "like" on Facebook, they also like showing their class and support by hitting their partners too...

[NRLCrap1]

Well then, by that logic this entire thread is invalid since it's based on tweets. I'll just go ahead and retort saying, who cares about tweets?? hardly a true supporter....

And i also referred to COMMENTS which are essnetially tweets but you ignored that.

If likes mean stuff all, and commeents mean stuff all. Why do people signing up for free on a forum, which i've probably done several hundred times, and posts mean something? oh right cause it's BIGFOOTY.COM!!!!!

You seem to have forgotten that Twitter can be accessed easily by mobile phone. This can be done at the venue. That's why Xman's point about sitting at home watching the TV works.

It's not invalid. It's not of great importance but it is an indicator. "likes" are a lot less of an indicator and even less importance.

Why do people signing up for free on a forum and posts mean something?

Because it's an indicator of interest. It's not a big indicator and it doesn't mean too much in the scheme of things
nit you cannot dismiss it outright just because you lose again.

i've only said like 10 times IGNORE THE LIKES what about the comments, that shows an active level of participation which can also be done via the phone at the game. whatever relevance that has...

[eelofwest]

The entire thread is about social media, im just addressing the claim proposed by the article or whatever.

That's the AFL page.

"So the social media mirrors the commercial media with a clear win to AFL"

errrr..... no it doesn't. Highlights a clear win in fan base to the NRL in the younger segment of the population. i.e. the NRL can tap into that with proper marketing etc. in the coming years.

They don't like it when you make them to look foolish......... ................keep it up............... =D> =D> =D> =D>


The whole premise of this thread is a huge


Brought up by the AFL because they have nothing on for the next 6 months....................................while RL/NRL has RLWC, WCC, Auckland 9's to look forward to... =D> =D> =D>

And in breaking news the NRLs facebook page has 46000 more likes than the AFLs. This must be the sealer

The nRL advertise their page, the AFL don't. The AFL has like 50,000 more twitter followers for the record.

AFL has more twitter followers because they follow 10,000 people while the NRL page follows about 200 people.

Thought i'd add up the facebook likes from every team from both codes:

AFL 550k

Collingwood 244k
Essendon 242k
St. Kilda 93k
Hawthorn 128k
West Coast 144k
Carlton 150k
Sydney Swans 125k
Richmond 122k
Adelaide 109k
Freemantle 98k
Geelong 64k
Port Adelaide 58k
North Melbourne 54k
Western Bulldogs 57k
Brisbane Lions 63k
Suns 63k
Melbourne 35k
Giants 32k

Total: 2431k

NRL 597k
Broncos 294k
Wests Tigers 169k
Rabbitohs 157k
Warriors 123k
Storm 234k compared to 125k from the swans
Roosters 84k and another page 50k which I will not count
Sharks 62k
Knights 76k
Cowboys 74k and two other pages of 94k together which i won't count
Titans 123k
Eagles 89k
Eels 161k
Bulldogs 133k
Raiders 63k
Panthers 51k
Dragons 85k and another 34k page which im not counting

Total: 2575k

Adding other pages total: 2753k

Adding representative teams: Blues 267k + Marrons 450k + Kangaroos 98k + Kiwis 126k = 3694k

Thanks for playing 2.6 million for NRL, 2.4 million for AFL WITHOUT any extra fan pages or representative teams.

FFS dave take your meds. You make no sense whatsoever.

[NRLCrap1]

NRL was bitch slapped by the AFL, Dave. Grand totals count. Individual totals do not. SOO is harming your precious game!

Don't see how showcasing the game in an amazing 3 round spectacle is harming the game.

I agree that placing it within the regular season is harming that particular round, so i think everyone should just get the week off 3 times in the year and we should remove the 2 byes each team already gets a season. That way there's no blow out scores because of origin players being missing and poor crowds because 80,000 are already going to ANZ in a couple of days.
