While all you minnows are having a laugh at my beloved Pear, they have been recognized by the international business community as the most valuable club in the AFL. 37 Premierships and 145 years of history will do that.
Just have a look at the following ladder. Let your eyes wander down to the s**tstain no-success tier of the ladder. Do you really think that any brand wants to associate themselves with the likes of the drug-cheating, empty trophy cabinet Fremantle? Any big companies want to debase themselves by putting their logo on the membership-microwaving, truck of shit dumping, KFC boy loving Ninthmond? Perhaps the likes of Coca-Cola or Nike would like to be represented by the schoolgirl-Milning, dwarf-burning, and perennial bottom dwellers at the Aints?
No. Big sponsors demand proud, successful clubs. Clubs that will never be torn apart. The clubs that you all fear but respect: The Port Adelaide, Collingwood, and Essendon Football Clubs.
Port Adelaide would never sell its soul to Tasmania. Collingwood would never call themselves the "Commodore Maggies" like the Camries. Essendon would never wear a yellow guernsey to advertise a flavoured milk.
Go ahead and post your tears here, minnows.
