Honestly, Brookvale & Cronulla were bigger. Gws number angloflicized.

Given the long history of NRL number fudging...its far more likely that GWS numbers are just following a proven example, if indeed they are doing anything.

Smaller crowd at a smaller venue is going to look bigger due to viewing perspectives.

Well pal you're wrong again. Brookvale oval record crowd is 27,655. Un-named stadium record crowd is 21,924. Brookvale's capacity is now capped at about 20k. Un-named stadium capacity is 24k. So your 'smaller crowd at a smaller venue' analogy is demonstrably incorrect.

No need to apologise pal. The bubble is a terrible thing!!!!!

Have a great day!!!!

You're completely ignoring the perimeter of Giants stadium field is ~100 metres longer than Brookvales.

I can only imagine how much shitter NRL crowds would look if they were spread over an extra 100m of Grand stands.

Great pal. I can only imagine if you could possibly be any more stupid!!!! You're getting up there with village idiot level lunacy pal.

Anyhow: tell me more about perimeter........it's fascinating pal!!!!!!! I mean.....people everywhere are talking about it!!!!

Dill.....diller.....and dillest!!!!!

I didn't think this through too much.
There'd be no need to spread the crowds.
The NRL would just put more banners in the stands.

Pal, you shoulda stopped at 'I didn't think this through". That represents just about everything fumblers say here.

Good luck and all the best for the future!!

mate have a day off or something, your starting to come off a little unhinged

Coming from you pal that is disturbing!!!! I shall consider my position.

Position considered. Na!!!!! You're a dill mate......so I shall continue to annoy you!!!!! I suggest you have a few months off like last year. It appears your preferred mess is tanking again so probably time to hit the hills in reverse gear and the white flag flying.

Take Fred and the others with ya on the way out please!! And don't slam the door!!!!!

That the biggest fixture on Sydney's AngloFL calendar gains so little fanfare, smashes argument of being a top 2 code.

lol no it doesnt.

Soccer participation crushes everybody. Anglofl ratings in NSW are shit. Only thing to hold your hat on are live attendances & now your biggest fixture is failing.

the only thing you league loonies have to cling on to are those few k rating boxes. your live attendances are shit whilst the AFL dwarfs the NRLOL in NSW in this area.

1. No fixture at the showgrounds is ever going to be the biggest. Capacity alone would tell you that even if sold out it still wont match the Swans AVERAGE crowd at the SCG dumbass.
2. Participation means fuck all at the professional level.
3. My hat hangs on attendance, revenue, sponsorship, tv ratings, membership etc etc.

Unlike the NRL, the AFL is more than just a tv show.

1. Derby number at scg well down also.
2. Moving goal posts - just professional now, huh?
3. Anglofl ratings in NSW are shit. Membership numbers rubbish with 2 game deals & counting pets. Swans gain sponsorship because of eyeballs watching them, but majority of eyeballs interstate. Millions spent on gws, revenue can't match that.

The afl audit membership numbers and pet membership is not counted.

Afl continues to grow in Sydney. Even Leroy cites this from living there that many who followed ru have moved up Australian rules. Comps are springing up where there was none (that’s a simple verifiable fact) and numbers continue to grow. You just have to accept this. Australian Rules has a growing presence in Sydney and is clearly the second most supported and popular code.

1. Not that low.
2. Actually Ive said all along that at the professional level the AFL is number 2 - go back and read my friend.
3. Maybe the ratings are shit, but they are still better than soccers ratings in NSW. Membership numbers stand up against everyone elses membership number, sponsors are where you find them in national competitions, and the amount spent on the clubs is irrelevant in this equation.

Do some fucking research you twat.

I did - I went back to original post;

Taking into account all relevant factors such as crowds, membership, sponsorship, tv ratings, media coverage, participation etc, etc, how would you rate and rank the codes in terms of popularity in NSW

So off all those things, participation is the only thing soccer is better at. As pointed out, all the other areas Australian rules beats soccer.

Anglofl is a niche pastime north of Beetson line - not widely played or supported. Millions have been poured into keeping gws afloat, while swans benefitted from cola forever. Don't mistake AngloFL investment for interest.

ignore the strong football leagues all up the eastern seaboard
ignore all those players from Sydney, NSW and Queensland that are currently past or present on an AFL list.

and all you have is a stupid league fan with the usual NFI about anything

Again, new teams, clubs, leagues and competitions - so it is widely played. Sponsorship, memberships, advertising dollars..... crowds......
