Problem league is problem: VFL

I’ve mentioned the name problem in a few posts before.  One league I hadn’t looked at or gathered data before today was the VFL.  There are a few feeder teams in the VFL that share the name of their AFL counterparts.  This includes the Collingwood Magpies and the Geelong cats.  As it is impossible to distinguish the AFL fans from the VFL fans, I’m going to assume that all fans are primarily fans of the AFL based team.  Exceptions except for Twitter, where the account says VFL.  Other exceptions would include groups where profile information could indicate allegiance to the VFL.  For interest based listings though, these VFL teams which share a name with the AFL will be listed under the corresponding  AFL teams.
