Per capita Aussie Rules reigns supreme. You are comparing a game comprised largely of teams from the same state. It is a game which is not even the number one sport in large areas of the country and our population is 20 million. The EPL and NFL are truly national comp. with populations of 60 million and 300 million supporting them. The fact that we rate where we do is UNBELIEVABLE!
The NFL and EPL don't have 11 teams from the same district. That would dilute the crowds somewhat. For Collingwood to average 65 000 is breathtaking. Own it and move on.
Stop being a hero. I talked up the AFL attendances in my early posts. I'm just directly addressing claims that are not true. Maybe you should stick to the thread topic.
