    Autopsy Sydney, despite being crucified again by umps, bravely battle on to win 126 - 60

    Mitchell had a good game TBF. 26 disposals, 2 goals and 13 tackles.

    GWS is the AFL's biggest problem - not North, GC, or Tassie

    No thanks! We adopted the name 15 years before the Giants entered the League and also play home matches in Ballarat in Western Victoria.

    I think the Dogs' fans will do better than that as it's not a dead rubber for us and it's only our second home game of the year after a great start to the season. There's not a lot of data on the ES Night timeslot but it's a public holiday the next day and it gives people plenty of time for...

    We got 28k to our first home match against GWS, so I'm hoping at least 2k Bomber fans turn up!

    It was 35,511 and we went into the game with a 2-3 record. Anything below that would be a major disappointment, even with Essendon's woes.

    It's only on FTA in SA and WA and on 7Mate in the latter. Its between two teams right in the premiership hunt, so it's quite an appealing game for neutrals. Not that we will find out how many are watching on Kayo/Foxtel.

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    Our 9 game Melbourne memberships significantly depress our revenue on this front. We would be ahead of the Saints if we had 11 gamers like them. Our Ballarat membership revenue is quite low but the matches there add a lot to our sponsorship. The Saints get $3m+ more in variable distributions.

    Mega Thread VICBias - Genuine Discussion Part 3

    The Swans get similar variable (or disequal) distributions as Port, WB and Melbourne but less than the Saints and Roos. https://www.zerohanger.com/how-much-funding-does-each-team-receive-from-the-afl-132659/ You are correct though that the Northern academies are paid for by the AFL though the...

    Good point. Our metro zone in the 70s and 80s (with only a few exceptions, notably Hawkins) delivered us little whilst the Hawks feasted on their Mornington Peninsula and inner eastern Melbourne zones. St Kilda only had more fans than us because Bayside Melbourne remained incredibly Anglo-Celtic.

    Mediocre. The AFL has got to stop giving so much national FTA coverage to perpetually poor performing clubs like Essendon and Carlton.

    30k and 31k but I'll take your word for it. Anyway apart from WC, Sydney Carlton and Brisbane, nobody has ever sold out a home game against GWS...

    44,354 at Marvel is probably a sellout these days so I think you probably are right.

    The club was hoping for 30k so it was a tad disappointing but hardly shameful. No Vic club has ever sold out a match against GWS and looking at crowd records the only two non-Vic ones who may have done so are their cross-town rivals and the Eagles who when they have a competitive team have zero...

    GWS is the AFL's biggest problem - not North, GC, or Tassie

    I suspect the GIANTS are taking a 360 degree approach from where their home ground and training/admin facility are actually based. Whilst Sydney Olympic Park is in Greater Western Sydney, just to the north and north east of there are suburbs such as Ryde and Eastwood whose populations...
