Not sure if this has appeared on Demonland, but this is a very interesting survey regarding AFL club support and memberships.

We all would be hoping for increased memberships as a result of success and hopefully future achievements. However based on our supporter base and current membership conversion which is already at a very high level, getting over 65,000 members might be difficult.

note that the survey was for 14+ tears old

to increase our members into the future years we need to capture the young kids in primary school

Some of those figures look peculiar to say the least, I find it hard the fathom the Crows having 400,000 more fans than Port Adelaide.

And I would be surprised if there are that many more St Kilda supporters than Dees fans based on these results.

 

 

Every year they come out with the same statistics which have a very fundamental flaw. 

Ask anyone in NSW which AFL side they follow, and they say Sydney, not because they do, but it is the only one reported on in that state.  It would be the same as asking people in Melbourne which NRL club they support. 

You can see the same problem in SA.  Does anyone seriously think they have that much support nationwide?  There are only 2 clubs in the state, and you either support Port or you hate them.

Morgans then translate those state based survey result into nationwide support. 

Trouble is 4 of the top 5 sides identified in the survey come from the 2 team based States, all outside Victoria. 

Surely that should ring a bell?

I just thought a professional market research firm could see the flawed methodology. Maybe I went wrong when I thought “professional”. 😀

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
