Crows 2015

At the time they were the only team and it would have been probably 70-80% of active afl supporters supporting the crows.

Nowadays it's probably more like 50% crows 40% port 10% others but as if you would change your song because of port Adelaide

[bennymacca]

Full marks to the Power though, at least they adhered to their song by stopping once they'd gone top.

So does this mean they only give 100% instead of the requisite 110%?

[bennymacca]

Maybe we can have the power to rule with aggression like some sort of dictatorship

When it comes down to it all songs are stupid except for Richmond and Melbourne. And nobody sings either in September

[Wedgie]

Glenelg had it pretty accurate originally too.

Where are you getting these stats bro? I'd like have a look.

This in the late 80's early 90's wins any team song comp.

I recall the Tiser doing a poll on this a few years back. You are probably on to something here.... has there been a significant shift in the landscape in the last few years..... My guess (and it's only a guess) would be Crows 45%, Port 40% and all others 15%. As an example among a group of blokes I regularly knock around with are Geelong, West Coast, Freo, Essendon, North Melbourne, Collingwood & Sydney supporters, along with your standard Crow & Power guys...... The "interstaters" in my view have a larger following then many might imagine.

Out of my arse.

I don't reckon it's far off though, especially with people who regard their afl team as their first team. Lots of SANFL first supporters might have a smaller interest in another club and that isn't likely to change when the crows came in, so this site would not be a representative sample

[bennymacca]

We are the pride of Brisbane town, but not Fitzroy even though we merged with them, and not as far south as the Gold Coast, and definitely nowhere else

[Booney]

We've paddled through some shit this morning. Has that media whore said he's off yet or what?

Yeah they say Brisbane, not QLD, where the GC is situated.

Did you know 65% of South Australians think the Adelaide Crows are a sooky, dishonest, arrogant club? I didn't know that. But there's a % sign after a number, so im gonna listen to my butthole.

Still not the entire nation.... just Brisbane, fair call - play on!

The day does end with a "y".

F*** me, I didn't see that coming

Think you are under selling the others there. Interstate memberships are high and I personally know plenty of non SA teams supporters. Only have to go out to a kids footy training now to see Crows and Port guernseys well and truly outnumbered. I know in my sons friend group who are in the 17-20 yo region it would be 30 % Port, 50% others and 20% Crows. Maybe times are changing

[bennymacca]

Interesting that the statement says Victoria not Geelong.

Gonna match his offer and shop him around
