Of course any thing less will indicate that they are not as popular as the suns!
You are taking home crowds only. Add the away crowds please.AFLcrap1 wrote:You remember wrong..probably from all the AFL Propaganda & lies.
& why are you including H & A .
When looking at popularity of a team in its home town ,you look at HOME crowd averages.

Suns ....13907.
Titans..14028.
But dont let your AFL bias get in the way of facts..
Funny thing is every yr we hear how the Suns are going to get a higher home crowd average..
When you compare home crowds you compare home grounds only.Cracker wrote:You are taking home crowds only. Add the away crowds please.
Sorry, but we are comparing popularity in a particular area by home as that is the most meaningful not only as closest comparison available but also the most meaningful wrt home crowds are what pays the bills.Cracker wrote:No you compare club popularity, and you include away crowds for a complete picture.

Away crowd are primarily opposition supporters and are not an indication of popularity of the away team. You only have to look at say the demons who have huge away crowds against Collingwood but dismal against the bulldogs.Cracker wrote:Popularity is nationwide, not local. If a club is only popular locally for example that is actually a bad thing.
So if anyone is ignoring away crowds in the judgement of popularity they are making a grave error.
