This is why I have no worries about the AFL "taking over" Rugby League in this city. It's a huge city and can support both codes. Especially when the AFL is pulling such tiny numbers as quoted above.

And in the real world the AFL has millions of supporters compared to the thousands the NRL has. On a national level the AFL crushes the NRL in regards to memberships, supporter base and money! Dream on you stupid NRL supporters as your code is no competition to the AFL

Ahh this thread is talking about sydney 'Warrior'. And ahh I think RL has more supporters worldwide than AFL.

What a stupid thread. Swans memberships only went on sale last week. I only renewed today. Lets see the numbers come July shall we. I've no doubt both the Swans and Giants will have thousands more members than any NRL club in Sydney. History tells us that much.

[Topper]

I would say that we will see good numbers by March let alone July.

Rubbish , a mate of mine said he renewed nearly a month ago with the Swans ... more cr@p from beaussie

GWS will have thousands more then ANY NRL club in Sydney will they , so GWS will get 20K plus members will they ?
Souths have 15K as of today ... & will get to their target of 22K on their ear .. & mab's will give 25K a fright
The Dragons won't be far behind , they'll both give the Swans a serious challenge for the most members of any Sydney sporting club



& I predict the Knights to take the mantle of the NSW sporting side with most members .... they'll trump the Swans ( and they'll do it with 90% of their members coming from Newcastle .. unlike the Swans , with only 66% coming from Sydney ) the Swans numbers will continue to decline & slide whilst the membership numbers of NRL clubs will continue to go through the roof

We all know NRL clubs fudge their membership numbers like their crowds. Non ticketed, leagues club members don't count dopey.

Beaussie

will GWS have more members then South Sydney & the Dragons ...... or not ?

[Beaussie]

More ticketed members yes no doubt about it.

[Raiderdave]

More ticketed members yes no doubt about it.

really .... tell me , for starters what AFL club releases their " ticketed " numbers
they don't do they ?
the ugly lie about AFL memberships .. the fact nearly 50% are non ticketed , would come out wouldn't it

( all NRL clubs are obliged to ) & do release theirs

Souths had 14K ticketed last year
the Dragons ova 15K

I look forward to seeing what GWS ends up with
at the moment they're on 1849 ... all up ..... & if half of those were ticketed ... I'd be surprised
