Some interesting research came out recently from Roy Morgan, surveying attitudes of various AFL clubs' supporters and comparing them to the overall average of AFL supporters. In this way, they were able to form a snap-shot of attitudes from supporters of each AFL club.
Here's what the survey found about Collingwood Magpies supporters:
When compared to all AFL supporters, Collingwood Magpies supporters are:
• 104% more likely to have made a purchase from Dimmeys/Forges in the last four weeks;
• 67% more likely to have made a purchase from The Athlete’s Foot in the last four weeks;
• 22% more likely to agree that “I avoid dairy foods whenever possible”;
• 21% more likely to have consumed V (energy drink) in the last seven days;
• 20% more likely to agree that “The food I eat is all, or almost all, vegetarian”;
• 19% (of respondents aged 18 ) more likely to agree that “Australian beer is the only beer worth drinking”;
• 16% (of respondents aged 18 ) more likely to agree that “Imported beer is a waste of money”;
• 13% more likely to agree that “I choose a car mainly on its looks”;
• 12% more likely to agree that “None of this stuff about the information super-highway makes sense to me”;
• 12% more likely to agree that “I’m constantly watching my weight”;
• 21% less likely to agree that “I regularly go to church or my place of worship”;
• 11% less likely to agree that “I always read the business section of the newspaper”;
• 11% less likely to agree that “I like things to stay the same”.
If you barrack for the Magpies, or you know someone who does, how accurate do you think this is?
