Collingwood the biggest club out of the Victorian clubs. Interesting that Geelong for that last 10 years have always been ranked as the 3rd biggest club in Victoria ahead of Richmond and Carlton. Victorian clubs on order are in terms of nationwide support;
Collingwood 908,000
Essendon 663,000...
I was at the game. Probably 10-15,000 lions at the game. M3 to M4 was full of lions fans and then from q1-q6 was full of lions fans. Seen plenty of old Fitzroy scarfs, jackets and jumpers at the game.
Still amazing turnout from the magpie army. Dead rubber and till still draw 45-50,000...
actually Saturday twilight is actually the best time slot much more family friendly. Also Collingwood have the most reserved seat holders in the Victoria so if our reserve seat holder don’t turn up it effects the crowd numbers.
Also are you trying to say Richmond are bigger than Collingwood...
Be very interesting to see how many Essendon fans turn up on Sunday. 4 weeks ago the afl would have expected 50,000 now I think the crowd will be between 27-30,000!! If the bombers lose this as expected and get thumped there next home game against the suns on Saturday could struggle to draw...
Depending on weather I think Collingwood v Carlton will draw 88,000 might nudge over 90,000 depending if all Collingwood reserve seat holders turn up……..no doubt it be a very pro Collingwood crowd as it is Pendles 400th and Collingwood home game. Don’t expect to win but hopefully they make it a...
Thinking the game will draw about 55,000. Long gone are the days of when Collingwood and Richmond would draw 85-90,000 against each other.
AFL might be a bit co concerned considering Collingwood and Richmond are out of the race this year and Essendon might miss the finals with only Carlton the...
Firstly you said Richmond have always outdrawn Carlton and Essendon. You never said when they were bottom 6! Secondly around Australia Collingwood is the biggest then second Essendon and third Carlton. Richmond is 4th ahead of hawthorn who’s 5th.
In the last 2 year’s Collingwood drawfs...
Let’s see how many Richmond fans turn up to there next home game. There will get 25-30 k of there fans turn up while Collingwood’s next home game will have 60-65k of the magpie army turn up against the bombers
Carlton and Essendon have out drawn Richmond more times then Richmond have outdrawn Carlton and Essendon. Last year Carlton and Essendon drew more fans then Richmond lol.
Out of the 97,600 at the game there were easily 95,000 Collingwood fans.
One game does not make Richmond bigger than...
Collingwood drew 97,634 v GWS………have Richmond ever done this? no…….have Richmond ever drawn over 1.2 million yet along 1.3 million during the home and away season? Nope. Collingwood have done this on 7 occasions including the record breaking 1,384,000 last year. At the mcg this year against...
Yet Collingwood have drawn bigger crowds in WA and South Australia then Carlton and Essendon!
Collingwood are bigger the Carlton and Essendon in nsw, act and Queensland. Collingwood have a massive following everywhere. Carlton and Essendon are big clubs but Collingwood is the biggest club in...
And then a year later Collingwood drew 97 k v gws. That game was the loudest and most one sided crowd of all time. Unless the mcg increases its capacity it Will remain the biggest crowd for a Victorian club v an interstate club.
my guess is 88,000 for Sunday and 85,000 for Monday. Both big games. Carlton v Essendon playing for top 4 and Collingwood v Melbourne playing for a position in the 8
I expect the suns will be getting plenty of sell outs in the next few years particularly if they play the lions, pies, bombers, blues, tigers, hawks and cats who all have a very strong following in south east Queensland.
There round 16 match v Collingwood will definitely sell out especially...
If Collingwood break Richmond’s record v Brisbane of 76,995 Collingwood will hold the biggest crowds at the mcg v every interstate club.
Collingwood already hold the record of the biggest crowd vs an interstate club when the pies played Sydney in round 1 with 78,933
I think the Collingwood v Brisbane game will draw close to 75,000 as the lions you think will bring along 10,000 of there own fans due to the Fitzroy connection
If the afl move Melbourne to marvel the club will be extinct. They have the most MCC members with around 20%. Plus the mcg has always been there home ground. Their crowds have been pretty good. They are not as big as the big 4 but in the last couple of years they have been Ave around 30,000 of...
The think that is fair. What I think the afl should do moving forward with the mcg marvel spilt should look something like this in 2029 when the Tassie side comes into the afl
Collingwood and Richmond play 9 home games at the mcg and 2 at marvel
Melbourne play 9 games at the mcg and 2 in...
The pies v crows game will draw between 67-70,000 people. Collingwood will draw there 65,000 supporters just depends on how many crows fans make the trip
