Tom Browne supports Collingwood.

Digging into the why
The main thing this list shows me is just how over-saturated this sport is with journalists/commentators. And it doesn't even include ex-players.
Basil Zempilas is a Richmond supporter.
Also OP, Gerard Whately is a Richmond supporter, not Geelong.
Craig Little (does most of the color pieces for The Guardian) is a carlton man.
Dennis Cometti is a Bulldogs supporter I think.

Two more very obvious ones - Callum Twomey, Essendon and Brett Anderson (SEN), Melbourne.
Really? I always associated him with West Coast
He was on the dogs list or reserves or something
You can tell he goes for the eagles as well though IMO

Bruce McAvaney - Whoever he is creaming himself over at tghe time. But Adelaide would be a good bet as he is South Australian.
By the way it might be interesting to see who all the people at the AFL follow?

I agree with its ridiculousness.
The other bits, I don't know as I haven't listened to him in years.
Bruce McAvaney is very loosely an Adelaide fan and an Essendon fan before the Crows' admission in 1991. It's almost not worth listing as he's so dispassionate.
Dennis Cometti was a Melbourne fan growing up, but rated his adulthood passion for the Demons as 'one out of 10'. It hardly counts either.
Ian Cohen (SEN) is a Melbourne fan.
Adam White (ABC) is an old Fitzroy fan who transplanted his allegiance to the Brisbane Lions post-merger.
Darren Parkin - St Kilda
Tristan Foenander - Collingwood

McAvaney and Cometti are/were unique in the modern landscape as they were on the scene from just before the league became the AFL, so while they may have had a VFL team and while Cometti even spent a little time at a VFL team, they didn't grow up with Adelaide and West Coast and either didn't support a VFL team, or just picked a random team and had no real connection to them.
That won't happen again, because anyone who loves footy in Australia will grow up loving an AFL team.
