Most popular Australian clubs and teams on Twitter
I haven’t done an update in a month or so… but this is my list of Australian clubs, leagues and athletes on Twitter. It is sorted by followers. The list is rather comprehensive but not all comprehensive. A few accounts have been deleted since the last time I did this. Those accounts aren’t noted this time around. And unlike the last time around, I haven’t htmled the Twitter accounts. If you see any people or clubs or fansites that I’m missing, let me know in the comments.

One of the comments included links to several Australian athletes on Twitter that I had missed. Some of these athletes aren’t active in Australian leagues so they don’t necessarily really fit well with most of the people and leagues on the list… but included below for interest. Any more names of people, leagues and clubs I’m missing, let me know.
