Maybe that's where the NRL will be in five years time, AFL Warrior. On the Comedy Channel.
Rugby League has a lying culture. Altering crowd figures, relying on inaccurate TV figures from regional NSW and refusing to distance itself from Leagues Clubs and obtain it's own club memberships as it relies on LC's to survive as private entities.

Funny you seem confused over at LU with the NRL's fudged figures.
the NRL needs to explain why the F'ing hell the membership numbers from their state of the game report were different to their own media releases in April .

the discrepency in the " total" membership numbers was an " oversight , with some clubs incorrectly reported .. the Raiders being one "
everything else was double checked

Dear AFL boys how is it going explaining the vast difference between claimed AFL membership eg Richmond 42k, and somewhat lower average home crowds like 40% and thats assuming no one from the opposition shows up.

Nationwide support for the club is the explanation.

So the Topper "theory" is that people buy Richmond membership for games that they will never go to. That makes perfect sense.

Yes it does, because that is true support. Something that NRL clubs don't have a clue about. I'm not surprised you do not understand this concept.

Dear Topper you are dead right as there is no way I will understand why someone would pay for something they had no intention of using. Of course I dont believe it either. Why cant the AFL crew simply acknowledge that the definition of AFL membership" is a pretty broad one and relates to more than fully ticketed members.
