What makes a good football coach?
If football is going to progress technically in this country, it will probably be up to individual coaches. So what makes a great coach?…

Great if there are 1 million afl members how come the average is around 30k a game? Take out the mcg and the average drops.
A League has about 11k average attendance with 100k members.
NRL has about 13k average attendance with 300k members.
Shouldnt the average of an afl game be 100k with 1 million members? But they cant because not everyone from the outskirts of Melbourne or country vic wants to travel to Richmomd on a weekly basis.

I will say country afl league look very strong. However its a shame that they have to go to the MCG to watch a professional game. Which is probably why the boradcasting numbers are so high for afl which is a broadcasters dream.

Football is the same game all over the world that is played under the same rules. So think how big afl as a code is on the world scale if 0.3% plays mainly soccer.

50% of those are 5 year olds that play aus kick and people that dont go to any afl games.

Probably the same place football comes from for nfl, rugby and afl that is obviously predominantly played with the foot.

Find a break down of all the categories of afl “members”. If you say afl once, you a life long member in the stats. I am an afl member for all 20 clubs after this article that has helped diffuse the code wars.
Defusing the Australian code war
Okay so Messi earns as much as half of all the afl teams in one season.
Npl players have to pay??? Trollololol.
If you are not on $400 or more a game in npl, you should switch teams. Some people are closer to a $1000 a game.

Yeah 2 weeks of quarantine must be hard when you are a multi millionaire captain of the socceroos in the world cup qualifiers coming up. I am sure his team mates appreciate the notice period.

How does the afl structure work? We can go by leagues and clubs.

Yeah true soccer fans use football. All those that couldnt care in the general public about soccer call it soccer. Which is fine either way.

Are these the same members that are 5 years old and played one game in the season for free?
Defusing the Australian code war
Because not everyone can make it to the MCG on a weekly basis. Victoria is bigger than the cbd. But they are impressive figures for a broadcaster.

Is there a group stage or does it go straight to the grand final?
