I wouldnt say slaughtered but per capita I guess you are right.
Per capita the TV ratings in Adelaide for both teams would also be better, even though the broncos have just about every friday night to themselves.
Yeah I was talking per capita. Seriously the Broncos have a 2 million city to themselves with no other nRL competition and they only manage an average crowd of 33k
Pathetic.
Yeah but one thing you need to take into account..................the ticket prices to bronocs games are double that of your Collingwoods hence they have a approximate 5m profit with a 33k average crowd in 2012. You are hopeless Spewie why not research a little.
4.5m Profit in 2012 with a football department spend on over 28m, the most of any club in Australian sport.

At 30 June 2012 28,991,500
(2,971,873)Half year profit........
Full year lets be conservative and say 5m profit with football department spend of 28m....
Now lets put this in perspective, Collingwood spend 21m on the football department and have a 4.8m profit in 2012(
http://footybusiness.wordpress.com/gove ... l-reports/) .....Broncos 5m profit 28m football department spend............

Broncos been around since 1988 and have now amassed 13m in cash and over 35m in assets all within 25 years of existence, Collingwood have net assets of $18,691,856 and have been around since 1892..............
1988 Broncos 28m Spend 35+m in assets and 13m cash in the vault. 24 years of existence.
1882 Collingwood 21m Spend 18m assets and 12m Cash in the Vault. wow 100+ years and still behind the might Broncos....
Spewie my Boy does it hurt knowing the Broncos have smaller crowds yet make more moneys then Collingwood your top AFL team..........
