[QUOTE="The_Wol, post: 1000422, member: 37787"] Netball maybe more popular in terms of attendance, but that's not hard, it's the main female sport. Every girl I've ever met played club netball at some point. In terms of viewers it's nowhere near any other sports listed. AFL - Has Auskick to get kids into it and play fun games on a weekend at near any age. Cricket - people go to get drunk it's like a party with people playing cricket in the middle (people who don't watch cricket go to get drunk with their friends) Soccer - Been creeping in popularity since I was 7 years old. Now I'm 29 and it's jumped rugby in attendance Rugby League - Popular everywhere but most popular in rural towns that have a large field and couldn't pick any other sport to play. Rugby Union - Private schools, yet it only has two major club tournaments encompassing a small part of two states. Majority of my friends that didn't go to school with me or aren't pacific islanders or New Zealanders have never played rugby. Netball - popular ages 7 - 15 after that participation nosedives. I would say rugby is more popular than cricket, but I've never once watched a cricket game. I would say cricket is on the decline because Australia is starting to suck. [/QUOTE]
