On Membership they were demonstrably wrong - it was pointed out that Membership wise Hawthorn was bigger, and Collingwood were unknown.
Home attendances is literally based on a one year sample.
media coverage is a bullshit stat if there ever was one
and is solely based on a single seasons performance.
and lol at brownlow votes being used as a measure.
It wasnt compelling in the slightest.

Are you actually stupid or just trying to be? So Richmond "outgrew" Punt rd eh? Lets see.
Richmond moved to the MCG in 1965, according to you it was because they "outgrew" Punt rd.
Richmond 1960 av crowd 15000
Collingwood 1960 30000
Richmond 1961 20,000
Collingwood 1961 28,000
Richmond 1962 21,000
Collingwood 30,000
Richmond 63 20k
Collingwood 29k
Rich 64 19k
Collingwood 32k
You guys definitely needed a bigger ground lol.
YELLOW AND BLACK!!
And for some mayo, you also got use of the MCG car park for your home games in that period, did you ever try and drive to Vic park?

We need a premiership to convince 25% of our supporter base to get to games again. So many let downs over 35 years has kept our crowds from really exploding this year. We will be a 1.2 million + crowd pulling club with 80,000 members regularly then if we stay up there for a while.

here you are again promoting the illogical.
You get triggered so easy bro. You should see someone about that
Wookie you're just like my missus. You would argue the earth is flat just to disagree with me. Don't you ever get sick of being wrong?

Close thread, richmond is not bigger than collingwood, even after several years of bucks
COLLINGWOOD has roared back to No.1 on the AFL’s membership ladder in a ringing endorsement of the club’s direction from fans.
In official AFL figures seen by the Herald Sun, Collingwood has leapfrogged Hawthorn with 75,879 paid-up members as total AFL memberships rose 3.7 per cent.
The AFL has exceeded 900,000 members for the first time.
Twelve of the 18 clubs have made membership gains this year and 10 have reached record memberships.
The Pies recorded a 1.6 per cent jump in membership to go ahead of Hawthorn (75,663), Richmond (72,669) and Essendon (67,768).

But while Greater Western Sydney has recorded a sensational 37 per cent growth to rise to 20,944 members, Gold Coast’s figures are a cause for concern.
The Suns’ membership slumped 9.25 per cent to 11,665 paid-up members this year — 9000 fewer than the Giants.
Collingwood president Eddie McGuire said the Pies members who had stayed strong would be rewarded next year.
The club will not play finals for a fourth consecutive season.
“It’s been a disappointing year for us, but the thing that keeps us going is membership,’’ he said.
“It’s fantastic that big Victorian clubs like Essendon, Richmond, Hawthorn and Geelong continue to grow.
“In a period where it’s been tough for Pies fans, they have voted with their membership dollars. We want to make sure they get rewarded next year.”

Gold Coast 11,665 12,854 -9.25%
TOTAL 907,561 875,197 +3.70%
The figures are based on numbers after the July 31 deadline and include only games-based memberships, not social memberships.
The GWS figure of 20,944 would put it third among Sydney-based NRL clubs.
Giants chief executive David Matthews was thrilled with the fan response.
“A 37 per cent increase this year is a significant achievement and clearly shows the club’s rapid growth after just six years in the AFL,’’ he said.
“We represent a truly inclusive organisation with strong values that obviously resonate with communities in NSW and the ACT.”
Clubs include three-game members in their figures and say that membership category often leads to 11-game memberships.
Six clubs recorded membership losses: West Coast (down 0.19 per cent), Port Adelaide (3 per cent), Fremantle (1.2 per cent), North Melbourne (10.4 per cent), Brisbane Lions (8.2 per cent) and Gold Coast (9.2 per cent).
The 10 clubs that set records included Essendon, Geelong, Hawthorn, Richmond and Western Bulldogs.
A total of 7192 AFLW memberships were included in the figures.
Essendon’s increase of 10,274 members, the largest in total number, shows the club’s resilience after the banning of players for drug offences.
The Bulldogs increased their membership by 8194 (20.8 per cent).

Now Richmond fans can concentrate on being Richmond, you have finals to lose!
smasha
It's Time!
No club could get those figures with what Richmond has been through.
Other clubs have rode the glory train of premierships,velvet elbows galore.
Because we were bad for much of the year - 5 and 10 at one point
Still
Total attendance at our 15 Victorian games =
Pies Toigs
Total 809,157 781,852

No, every club recovers after a long period of suffering and then atrophies after a period of success. Not to mention that this is actually richmonds 4th time in finals in 5 years
Your fellow delusional toig asked a question which I answered.
smasha
It's Time!
Flags create huge numbers,we lost our third finals series and The Tiger army didn't budge.
You are glory riders,played in countless flags and grand finals.
Tigers have you well covered.
Didn't a separate thread get created for deluded richmond fans with delusions of grandeur?
