Never really gets published mate, all clubs play ducks and drakes with membership numbers and even the AFL don't give anything that could be considered accurate once they do their audit.
My theory, just run with the numbers the clubs say they have, the big ones have more, the shit ones have less, simple.
Western Bulldogs won the flag 2 years ago with a low membership number, surely they weren’t a “shit” club?
What if GWS win it this year with their no’s, are they still a “shit” club?
On field and off field don't always align, West Coast, Adelaide, Collingwood have big membership numbers every year, they don't finish top 4 every year.
GWS franchise, nobody expect them to have a supporter base.
