Collingwood and Richmond - who has the greater supporter base

[frggr]

Richmond may have overtaken Collingwood on the Geelong hate scale but no doubt Hawthorn would still have Richmond covered.

Nah, not even. Hawthorn supporters aren't nearly as smug and further to that, their team has runs on the board. They have reason to be smug and they aren't really.

Richmond supporters, on the other hand...anyone'd think they won the last 10 premierships after undefeated home and away seasons

Essendon are no where near our size, they were never that big except under Sheedy when they were winning flags, there are no indicators that would put them ahead of Richmond Collingwood or Hawthorn, oh except Roy Morgan

There is a reason only one club was ever known as the sleeping giant, that reason is now obvious.

Essendon are the on

Lol you know that Essendon are the 2nd biggest club on social media behind Collingwood. Also Essendon has out drawn Richmond since 1990 90% of the time.

Essendon have drawn over 1 million people during the home and away season 15 times to Richmond only 5!

Collingwood who was the first club to break 1 million people through the turnstiles during the home and away season in 1992 have drawn over 1 million people 21 times.

I will say it again Richmond are no way near the national support levels of Collingwood and Essendon.

Hope you enjoy your 5 minutes of fame Richmond but Collingwood will easily draw 1.2 million this year for the 6th time. Richmond have never done this and probably never will. 100,000 members and only 40% turn up. Would love to see your crowd when you play port Adelaide at the mcg. Won’t even break 30,000!!

True this. Hawks know how good they are.

Tiggs aren’t sure how good they are but pretend to be like the Hawks just in case.

I think deep down the Tuggers know they're shit. The bravado is a big coverup for their deep-seated insecurities

The Richmond faithful have been very humble since their 2017 premiership

Perhaps one of the Scat supporters reading this could put the meth pipe down for a minute and start their own thread comparing the size of their own club to Port, or Norf?

You're back. Still haven't pointed out the 20,000 neutrals from the 2017 prelim. Still haven't explained why Pies only got 50,000 to the final against Port. I'm patient though.

You still have not explained why Richmond are 9.2 million behind Collingwood in total attendance’s and that Richmond have never drawn 60,000 v an interstate side in Melbourne during the home and away season yet they claim to have 95,000 members

We'd rather compare ourselves with clubs on talent, success and competitive merits thank you. Not shit fighting over size because we have nothing else going for us (much like the club you support).

In this regard Tuggers would be better off seeking minnow fights with the Norfs and Puffers of the AFL. I still don't understand why you guys are obsessed with us when you're not on our level but here we are.

Why are you reading this thread then? If you’re more interested in on-field matters there are game day threads

Look mate it’s OK if you admit you haven’t got an answer to my questions

 

[Grin]

Richmond are miracle workers.

The club and its supporters are such campaigners that they've made Collingwood and its supporter base look good.

I might even *like* Collingwood because of it.

Someone get George Pell down here to get the Sainthood process starte....oh

People always hate the biggest the most.

I can't believe this thread is still going. Are Collingwood supporters really that insecure that they need to insist their club is the biggest, when it obviously isn't because facebook?
It's really, really pathetic Collingwood, and beneath even you.

Finals are a novelty for Richmond supporters over the last 30 years, we’re in them very regularly. Neutral supporters will check out the rare freak show from time to time.

Its entertaining watching 1 Pies supporter completely destroy a flock of tuggers, particularly regarding the one subject that you guys seem to care about more than any other.

Richmond making finals is a one in a lifetime achievement. Collingwood making finals is a regular occurrence. Grand finals and during the home and away season is when we come out In force

Or you're still bitter and twisted from the reaming we gave you in the 2017 Qualifying Final (which should have been played at a suburban ground according to handbagger flogs like you)

And the one Collingwood supporter you're so enamoured with is certifiable.

Yes yes. If you focus on the1900s, you might have an argument.
These days there’s no argument. Richmond are obviously much bigger.
Time to give it up.

Where was the Magpie army tonight? Pretty average crowd for a club supposedly bigger than us.

lol 60,000 v interstate side. Something that Richmond have failed to do v any interstate side during the home and away season. West Coast have only played in front of 60,000 plus people during the home and away season in Melbourne twice and that has been both against Collingwood. Richmond are minnows. What was the crowd in Sydney! Only looked like 10,000!!! Minnows

 

[gopies1981]

Collingwood already averaging 13,000 more then Richmond so far in 2019. After round 6 we could be close to 20,000 more then Richmond!!

Yep those 95,000 members seem legit to me lol
