It is very true. I think a home game against GWS is the best way to tell what a teams real supporter base is actually at and as you point out some of the bigger Melbourne clubs have had poor crowds against GWS and they have not had the full season of disappointments to go with it.
If I were a Melbourne supporter I would feel a bit flat after about Round 16. Still your team did improve a lot this year and is showing a lot of positives so that must be nice for you guys.

Probably Freo pre Ross Lyon. They were just so...weird. Weird kit, weird gameplan/s, weird coaches, weird players, weird song and last but not least completely useless. I found all of those traits endearing.
4 wood is my 2nd club, the 3 iron is the go to for me, nice distance and good accuracy.

Gold Coast or Sydney.
Fremantle.
More so if they were the merger of South and East that almost got up in the late 1980's and early 1990's.
Should've been red, white and blue.

No second team, but have a soft spot for Richmond, Dogs, Port and both WA sides.

Carlton were crap in the '00s but basically not long enough for the arrogance of the previous decades to wear off (played finals in 2001 and were back playing finals in 2009). It's only now things have completely fallen apart again the arrogance is diminishing.

Shafted? How is players leaving getting shafted by the AFL? Shit culture means players will leave.
This is the club that bent my team over last year for Christensen and I do not care what happens to them. They're the only club I'd get enjoyment out of seeing fold.

Used to be Geelong in the 90's/00's but they have had a bit of success since then.
I'd like to see the Dog's get up, and I have a strange admiration for the Pies.

Christensen may have been a little undervalued, but your club made the trade and brought in Rhys Stanley with the pick, so they were clearly happy to do it. Good result for both parties imo. Either way, you'd seriously be happy to see a team fold over something so petty? Wow. Mate, GWS gave Sydney pick 35 (I think it was) for Shane Mumford. Does that mean I want to see them fold? Absolutely not. I still want to see them succeed.
Sure, players leaving isn't the AFL's fault, but look at their start to next year already. West Coast in Perth, and North Melbourne. Going by Brisbane's recent history, that's season over after two games. Also, the AFL does absolutely nothing to improve Brisbane's market. The sport is almost dead here, and what does the AFL do? Introduce a system that makes it more difficult to get their academy players, then Victorians still kick up a stink when the Lions ensure they have the points to get them anyway.
It's an everchanging team for most people I would think. Everyone likes an underdog so the historically poor performing teams showing a glimpse feature for me. Western Bulldogs, Fremantle etc. When Melbourne are finally done with Roos and have an attacking game plan they will be of interest for me.
On the other end of the scale no-one will like Hawthorn, Geelong and Sydney because they've had their time in the sun.

Despite our historical rivalry, I've always been a fan of the Saints. Probably because of the Hall, Plugger, Schneider, Dempster connections over the past couple of decades.

Brisbane obviously should be in the AFL but they earned their dept? They deserve to be in the position they are in. Don't accept handouts because that is pathetic, should fold.

Great for the game. Definitely going to help expand the game, taking it out of one of Australia's major cities. I truly think you're on to something here... give Gil a call?
