I'm guessing Collingwood were left out of the survey so as to not skew the results too much I think Collingwood is there..you have to pay $4950 for the complete results of what each team supporters like. That is $4950 per team. According to that, fellow Cider drinkers come from Adelaide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookMan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Eddie would be spitting chips if he read this ...In Franklin's first year wearing red and white, the club has signed a record number of members - reaching and exceeding 40,000 for the first time. On grand final eve, Roy Morgan circulated study findings showing Sydney, for a ninth consecutive year, was the AFL's "most widely supported club". Not only that, but with the Swans having 1.135 million supporters, the survey said there was daylight between the competition leader and next best, Collingwood, with 739,000. The figures, measured in the period July 2013-June 2014, had this year's other grand final combatant, Hawthorn, ranked 10th with 448,000 supporters... http://www.smh.com.au/afl/10-million-sydney-swans-have-got-value-for-money-with-lance-franklin-20140926-10miub.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookMan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Tom Mitchell wants to stay in Sydney, turning down a lucrative advance from CarltonOUT-OF-FAVOUR Swan Tom Mitchell has turned down an advance from Carlton, saying he is determined to win a regular senior spot in the Sydney midfield next season. Mitchell, 21, confirmed he would not entertain trade offers despite another “frustrating” year during which he played only six senior games. The hard-nut onballer topped the Blues’ midfield wish-list after another dazzling season in the NEAFL, averaging 31 possessions, seven clearances, five tackles and one goal a game. But Mitchell, who put on a brave face as an emergency in the Swans’ Grand Final team, said he would use the continued selection heartbreak to drive himself to greater heights in the pre-season. http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-premiership/tom-mitchell-wants-to-stay-in-sydney-turning-down-a-lucrative-advance-from-carlton/story-e6frf3e3-1227071911983 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookMan Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) This is pathetic from the Swans 61-21 only half the way through the 2nd quarter I'm calling it Hawthorn's game Awful stuff from Sydney.

Will27 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Awful viewing for Swans supporters up to half time Only players standing up for Sydney are Franklin and Malceski. The rest of the Swans should hold their heads in shame I think Kennedy has been pretty good. No run from the Swans with Rohan and Jetta 1 kick each. I know Jetta copped a knock, but he's shown no intensity whatsoever. Let's hope the Swans the Swans come out in the 3rd and kick a bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddy was one of the few highlight for the Swans IMO. Sydney finished on top and Buddy won the Coleman so I think he earned his money and the trade was a success.
