would argue strongly though if you asked most non footy/afl fans in non traditional football States like NSW or QLD who is the first team they think if asked about the AFL, I would say a good proportion would say Collingwood more than anyone else .
So maybe it's fair to say Richmond are the most popular club in the land right now but Collingwood is and probably always will be the most famous one (imo)
But not the biggest, and that really is the subject of the thread. But I believe a now should've been added to the title.
our membership in QLD is double that of Collingwoods.
Well that's not really a high bar, not somethin I'd write home to mum about.
