A legion was generally considered to be around the 3300 to 3500. 

So that means about 10 legions R and B

Seems a lot more variable according to Wikipedia --- somewhere between 1,000 and 5,000 depending on when. So fittingly for some AFL crowd figures, there is some room for variability there.

The legions of doom.

I was at the Dee's last finals game, back in 2006 at Subiaco Oval. 

That day we only had around 2,000 supporter at the game. The Shockers had around 40,000 of their supporters there. My father was a member of the Shockers up until his passing around 10 years ago. I still has fond memories of singing our theme song to him over the phone every time the Dees beat the Shockers. That is until the time when he would no longer speak to me after our games.

2006 was my first and only AFL finals game that I have see live and the last time my wife went with me to a football match. I also think it was the first finals match the Shockers had won.

My best memery of the games was singing our theme song when the Dees ran on to the ground. The lady in front of me had to put her fingers in her ears, so I just had too sing louder. I love our theme song, and its even better when it annoys the opposition.

I assume most of you guys and gals (not a 100% sure what Old Bitter is because of his avatar) will be attending our next finals game? Well give them a rowdy version of The Grand Old Flag for me if you are there at the game.

GO THE DEES!

I understood a Roman legion had between 3,000 to 6,000 men plus followers and auxiliary.

I owned a horse called Legion, that became a stallion, much like my good self.

Are the auxiliary legions like the interchange bench?

What do you mean "hopefully" it will be correct either way.

I think Redleg would prefer one correct way over the other ... ?

No they are more like an WAFL player.

Less pay and lesser working conditions but shorter seasons.

You have to do so many lines to get through this.
