Question:

Which team in the AFL do you think has the most supporters?

by | earlier

Collingwood seem to think they are the "biggest" club, but I think Adelaide and West Coast would have more fans. I know the Crows have the largest membership.

The Australians do not know who they are cheering most of the time, they just like to be drunk and disorderly

I'm a Yank. Love to watch AFL. We don't get to see much but every so often one of the sports channels shows it. Usually championship games. I think I have the scoring figured out. Great game!

Adelaide have the highest membership totals for the AFL but clubs from states other than Victoria will naturally have more fans due to lack of choice.

Collingwood has the highest membership in Victoria and the third largest in the competition.

Membership isn't really an indication of a total fan base as Western has the lowest membership in the competition but the west is known for having a lower average income than the eastern suburbs and therefore memberships might not be affordable to the supporters.

I'd say Collingwood has the most supporters as I'm sure there's another 40,000 who can't read the word membership in the first place.
