It’s cute that you think that your franchise is even relevant in our league . Just remember it’s a privelage that you are even allowed in it .
Now run along and keep whining about having to come back to our home ground for Grand finals . It’s my favourite tyoe of salt
Your knowledge of history is about on par with your debating skills, not to mention your spelling. I've seen some of your other posts and you are just a troll flog tbh. You add nothing of value to the argument. To say WC are irrelevant is just an idiotic response and you don't deserve the attention.
Thanks for your input.
Hopefully west coast win enough games next year to qualify for the grand final.
That way you can fly for 5 hours to come and play us at our home ground if you are good enough.
Beating interstate teams in grand finals is fun.
Looks like you have some serious , but understandable insecurity issues.
That's cool, don't fret princess, we will let you play in our league regardless, we do need someone to beat in grand finals, hopefully you are good enough to make it next time.

Hasn't been a big four in years, but Richmond is probably getting close to joining the big 3:
Eagles
Hawks
Pies
That is very clearly currently the big 3 when you look at a combination of members, assets, revenue and sustained on field success.
Tigers close to joining the group, especially with Pies lacking somewhat in flags in the last few decades, and Tigers big membership numbers.

Year in year out, West Coast and Collingwood are clearly the big two.
Other clubs rise and fall a bit in this regard but those two have been big for the entire AFL era, even in leaner years.

More profit last year than Richmond, a s**t load more assets than Richmond, and a s**t load more flags in the last 40 years.
I can understand Tigers fans being up and about, its been a good 3 years for them.
Richmond are still a good distance from the sustained success required to get close to the likes of WC and Hawthorn, with WC the very clear leaders at the moment. If WC decided to cash in all their assets, they could buy Richmond's assets 3 times, and Hawthorn's twice. They also nearly doubled Tigers profit, and doubled the Tigers flag count in the time WC have been in the competition.
Well the roar on GF day was fairly intense, but I think 300,000 members is a big ask.
I reckon the Giants will make 100,000 before the Tigers reach 300,000, but might be a fair way off.

Hawks! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Try small 4 champ.
Very funny though.
Big clubs don’t need to relocate 5 games a year for 10 years especially when they are winning flags
Now that they have stopped winning I expect them to relocate permanently
The big four?
West Coast, Richmond, Collingwood, Hawthorn

LOL. Comedy gold.
The glory days are over mate
And the government and afl subsidies are running out
Crowds dropping , No winning finals in 4 years, you have 3 options
1. Permanently relocate to Tassie
2. Sell games to New Zealnad
3. Merge with Gold Coast

West Coast could I reckonis it going on match attendances......members......flags.......profit
or all of the above
Most Vics would tell you Essendon, Collingwood, Carlton, Richmond....
but I spose West Coast, Adelaide, Collingwood and Essendon is fair enough on a national scale
Id like to see West Coast and Adelaide fill a stadium the size of the MCG though (not doubting they probably could given the right circumstances)
The AFL would survive with any team in the comp going out bar Richmond and as much as I hate to say it Collingwood, then they would have a real struggle on thier hands. All other teams are replaceable and the situation managable!
