Posted by Laura on Monday, 4 October, 2010

This is an updated version of Most popular Australian athletes, clubs, leagues and sport organizations on Twitter (version 2). If I’m missing anyone or anything, let me know.

The top 10 are unchanged since the last time I ran this. Stephanie Rice gained one place, going from 12 to 11. RealBigDell moved from 13 to 12. LionsRugbyTeam dropped from 11 to 13.  harry_o moved from 19 to 15. NRL and SamBurgess8 both dropped one. jarrydhayne_1 moved from 17 to 19. karmichaelhunt and jimstynes swapped places with jimstynes going up one and karmichaelhunt going down one. Of the top 20, warne888 gained the most total new followers with 15,055. LionsRugbyTeam gained the least with 144. harry_o, who had the biggest gain, had 2304 new followers. The biggest overall loser is BENJI_MARSHALL6 who lost 33 followers.

Posted by Laura on Wednesday, 15 September, 2010

This is an update on my September 13 post. I’ve added roughly about fifty more athletes. I want to improve the list some more and try to update this list regularly during the Commonwealth Games to see if those individual athletes gain a following during them. If I’m missing anyone or anything, let me know.

Most popular AFL and NRL teams on Facebook

Posted by Laura on Friday, 30 July, 2010

This list extends a bit beyond the AFL and NRL but not much.  The following list contains the total number of fans or members of a Facebook group or fanpage today.  All the official AFL and NRL club pages and accounts are included.  Beyond that, there are a number of other groups and clubs that I had looked at before.  Some of these are official accounts.  Some of them are not.  A number have been deleted after they were originally looked at.  This gives a bit of an idea of what I’m interested in.  It also gives an idea as to how successful official club pages are at capturing the majority of their audience or if fans are going elsewhere.  In some cases, it also gives an idea as to how successful anti-campaigns are at garnering attention.

Alexa rank for Australian leagues and clubs

Posted by Laura on Thursday, 29 July, 2010

I’ve been some what lax with collecting data during the past month.  This morning, I decided to remedy this a bit by updating my Alexa rank list for Australian sport clubs and teams.  This is what can be found below.  (The list isn’t all comprehensive.  I tend to mostly focus on the AFL and NRL.) It is interesting to see who is doing well, especially when compared to other clubs in the same league or clubs playing in the same geographic area.

Popularity of Australian sports leagues across various social networks

Posted by Laura on Saturday, 13 March, 2010

I’ve been checking the number of people who list a team as an interest across a number of social networks.  Yesterday, for networks where I had information on 215 teams I have on my list, I added together the number of people who listed a team as an interest in various leagues.  I got the following table.

Victorian Amateur Football Association 1 1
WNBL 38 9 29
Women’s Flat Track Derby Association 760 760

Interesting to see what networks have what populations.  The WNBL is only really an interest on 2 networks while the AFL is present on every network.  These networks all have different population sizes so total numbers is really apple to oranges in some ways.  I then decided to rank the leagues by how popular they were on each network.  The most popular league ranks 1, the next most popular league ranks 2.  If there is a tie, they share the same rank.  The results of that are in the following table:

Netball New South Wales 17 17 22
Brisbane Netball Association 18 18 21
Plenty Valley Netball Association 19 19 20

This table is a bit more interesting.  Across most networks, the AFL is the most popular league.  The NRL is the second most popular league.  First class cricket, compromising state cricket teams, is the third most popular.  The A-League and Super 14 are close behind.  When you get down near the bottom, patterns become interesting.  The WNBL is not as popular as Women’s Flat Track Derby Association.  This is largely a result of the large number of fans on Facebook.  AFL Canberra is also more popular than the VFL.  This is because of the high rank on JournalFen.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_attendance_figures_at_domestic_professional_sports_leagues lists the attendance by league for six Australian sports leagues in 2009.  I cannot find a better list of attendance data for Australian sports league, especially the minor leagues.  That makes the rest of this analysis a bit problematic but moving forward anyway… This data is then put into the following table:

League Average rank Total people Total attendance 2009 Average attendance 2009
AFL 1.30 266884 6370350 36195
NRL 1.77 180242 3084481 16065
Super 14 3.2 49838 2021376 21504
A-League 3.37 73559 1166966 12966
NBL 3.14 7899 644976 3665
First class cricket 4.42 34574 308590 18153

For total number of people attending during the course of a season, it certainly seems to track with the average league rank on the social networks in this sample.  Total people and total attendance seems to track some too.  I ran the correlation to confirm these observations:

Total attendance 2009 Average attendance 2009
Average rank -0.892632665 -0.511836009
Total people 0.949552518 0.769754845

Total attendance does correlate meaningfully.  Average attendance isn’t as meaningful but the correlation is still relatively strong.  There is a relationship there.

I’ve found that similar relationships exist with American baseball teams.  The issue of course is: Cause and effect.  Does high fan attendance lead to more fans listing their teams as an interest on social media? Or does becoming interested in a team on social media sites lead people to attending games?  It feels like the first but I have no evidence either way.

LiveJournal: Interest in leagues by location

Posted by Laura on Wednesday, 3 March, 2010

I finally finished compiling a list of LiveJournal and clones users who list various teams as an interest. The issues in doing this and other maps have been discussed in earlier posts. Not all cities are picked up by the software, not everyone lists the city they live in are two of the big ones. People can list multiple teams in the same league as interests (and thus be counted twice) or the same team as an interest across multiple clones (again, counted twice).

While teams from many leagues were looked at, not all those teams had people listing them as an interest and where the individual listed their city of residence. The following leagues did though: AFL, AFL Canberra, A-League, ANZ Championship, First class cricket, NBL, NRL, NSW Premier League, Rugby League/State of Origin, Super 14, and Victorian Amateur Football Association. To make the map more readable, some of the least represented leagues were left off the map.

The following map was created using MapPoint:

A-League

Super 14

The map clearly shows a geographic preference in New South Wales for the NRL.  Victoria clearly prefers the AFL.  The rest of the country tends to also support the AFL.  The pattern of geographic distribution for fans of these leagues appears to fit patterns I have seen described elsewhere.  It will be interesting to see if these patterns hold for bebo.

ANZ Championship on Facebook’s fanpages and groups

Posted by Laura on Saturday, 30 January, 2010

bebo, blogger, LiveJournal and LiveJournal clones all have relatively small communities when compared to Facebook. It bothers me sometimes because to understand the size and shape of the online fan community on popular social networks almost requires looking at the site if I want to be accurate. The data you get from the advertising information is interesting but limited. Looking at fanpage and group membership is even more limited but at least you can get names and a better feel for location. I decided to do that for ANZ Championship teams. (There are just too many NRL and AFL and even NBL related groups for me to want to tackle at the moment.) I found the following list of groups and fan pages:

  • Adelaide Thunderbirds – ANZ Championship: Adelaide Thunderbirds
  • Thunderbirds Adelaide Netball Club Appreciation Community – ANZ Championship: Adelaide Thunderbirds
  • Thunderbirds are GO in the 2009 grand final! – ANZ Championship: Adelaide Thunderbirds
  • Canterbury Tactix – ANZ Championship: Canterbury Tactix
  • SUPPORT THE CANTERBURY TACTIX WITH TIC TACS – ANZ Championship: Canterbury Tactix
  • Pulse Netball – ANZ Championship: Central Pulse
  • Melbourne Vixens – ANZ Championship: Melbourne Vixens
  • Melbourne Vixens – ANZ Championship: Melbourne Vixens
  • Melbourne Vixens – ANZ Championship: Melbourne Vixens
  • Northern Mystics – ANZ Championship: Northern Mystics
  • Northern Mystics Fans – ANZ Championship: Northern Mystics
  • Queensland Firebirds – ANZ Championship: Queensland Firebirds
  • Southern Steel – ANZ Championship: Southern Steel
  • southern steel – ANZ Championship: Southern Steel
  • Sydney Swifts – ANZ Championship: Sydney Swifts
  • Waikato/BOP Magic Netball – ANZ Championship: Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic
  • West Coast Fever – ANZ Championship: West Coast Fever
  • West Coast Fever – ANZ Championship: West Coast Fever

    • Some of these groups have as many as 1,000 members and some have as few as 13. I went looked at the membership list, found the people who belonged to specific networks, identified the location of that network and then created a map based on those. Some cases, like for corporations, have no city specific location and some of the schools on the list are affiliated with bigger towns near them. The map below differs a fair bit from the similar map for to the one for bebo, blogger and Facebook. The major difference? Regional fannishness is much, more more apparent on Facebook.

    ANZ Championship fandom location on LiveJournal, bebo and blogger

    Posted by Laura on Thursday, 28 January, 2010

    I’m playing with Microsoft MapPoint. It is pretty awesome, except for the fact that some smaller cities don’t register. Anyway, I finished compiling the location of all fans of ANZ Champship teams on bebo, blogger, LiveJournal and LiveJournal clones. Interest in this particular competition is small compared to the NRL, AFL and A-League. For a few people, fans didn’t list a city which makes getting an accurate idea of where fans are difficult. Two cities didn’t appear as they were really, really rural so they were excluded. I took this data and the output was the following map.

    Melbourne Vixens
    New South Wales Swifts (Sydney Swifts)
    Northern Mystics
    Southern Steel
    Sydney Swifts

    The map has that limited perspective because there were no Queensland based fans. That includes people who just listed state, not city. The same situation existed for Western Australia, Tasmania, the ACT and Northern Territory.

    Central Pulse on bebo

    Posted by Laura on Sunday, 24 January, 2010

    The Central Pulse are a New Zealand based team in the Australian/New Zealand based ANZ Championship, the premiere netball competition in both countries.  Because the presence of Australian teams, it is being covered by this blog.

    There is a small community of people listing the team as an interest on bebo.  It consists of four people.  Of these four, all are from New Zealand and all are female.  These two are not surprising given that this a female athletic team and the team is based in New Zealand.

    The average and mean age of the three fans listing their age is 21.6 and 21 respectively.  This sample of three is the largest of all the other teams looked at on social networks so far.  With samples of one, the New South Wales Swifts community on LiveJournal, and the Melbourne Phoenix on blogger are both older at 22 and 32.  With samples of one, Adelaide Thunderbirds on bebo, and New South Wales Swifts on bebo are younger at 18 and 20.

    Considering the population size of Australia compared to New Zealand, the most surprising thing about this bebo data is that the community is so big at 4 compared to Australian teams with 1.
