Ranking Victorian clubs by size

[GO DONS]

Wondering about peoples thoughts in how the the clubs rank in terms of support/profile, i would go 1. Collingwood- i think easily the most consistant highest profile/biggest club 2 Richmond- massive club, close to collingwood in profile, close with essendon, maybe put them higher to not sound too bias 3 Essendon-ditto massive club 4 Carlton- massive club always seen a one of the big 4 5 Hawthorn- another big club, though wouldnt put them with the top 4 6 Geelong- medium size 7 St kilda - medium size, gets good crowds when winning, as seen in 2009-10, or 1997 8 Melbourne-smaller club though i think bigger than bottom 2 9 Western bulldogs-small club 10 North melbourne -smallest club

Just what we needed, another "Big 4" circle jerk thread.

Swap Essendon and Richmond and if Carlton ever get their shit together they would rival Richmond. Also swap Dogs and Dees

[Korol Mira]

It clearly goes like:

Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon
Richmond
Geelong
Saints
The Rest

Don't reply to this referencing membership tallies because I don't care.

1. This
2. Is
3. How
4. You
5. Make
6. A
7. List
8. People
9. Can
10. Read

 

[Kwality]

1.VRC
2.MRC
3.MVRC

I'm impressed by the MRCs assets. Both Sandown & Caulfield ripe to be cashed in, in part or in whole.

[The 747]

Maybe rank them by wins instead. Clutching at Big 4 notions as a consolation prize.

Saw the title and thought, schools out, timokane again LOL

Who cares about this appendage measuring thread, we all know Saints and North should be cut for the good of the AFL

yeah schools out

 

[citizen-erased]

Really depends on the metric

Historically i reckon you'd have gone Pies, Dons, Blues, Tigers in that order with the hawks & cats coming behind then the rest.
Of late, the Tigers have turned juggernaut & the Pies still go strong

fan-base;
Pies
Tigers
Dons
Blues
Hawks
Cats
Dees
Saints/Dogs/Roos

Flags;
Blues
Dons
Pies
Tigers
Hawks
Cats
Dees
Roos
Dogs
Saints

Pies & Dons probably sell papers like no other in the state, esp. when we're doing stupid stuff.
commercially, i'd say the Dons and Pies are top 2 historically.

I suppose in terms of memberships and fanbase size it would be something like this.

1 Collingwood
2 Essendon
3 Richmond
4 Carlton
5 Hawthorn
6 Geelong
7 Western Bulldogs
8 St Kilda
9 Melbourne
10 North Melbourne

Richmond are guna melt over this.

We'll overtake them as well when we hopefully start winning flags again! Although having said that, we're already ahead of Richmond where it really counts.
