which is it?
i personally think the 4 most popular are the 36ers, wildcats and 2 north queensland sides.
others do not rate with the fans really except for perhaps tigers..
what u think
I think the Gaze-era Tigers were generally well liked. The Anstey-era Tigers might well be the most universally disliked.
I think generally people like the regional/non Aust. capital sides. FNQ, Hawks, 36ers, G.Coast, Breakers. Less perceived arrogance, the underdog/battler thing as well I guess.

The Razorbacks have a huge supporter base not only in west Sydney but regional Australia.
I'm in Sydney - the Razorbacks do not have a supporter base anywhere.

You'd probably have to say Sixers, Tigers & Wildcats just due to the years they've been around and the support base they'd built.
I'd probably include Townsville in the mix as well considering before the Cowboys joined the NRL, they were the only entertainment in town. Naturally being a regional town, you'd get a big support base.
Possibly the same could be said for Wollongong.

This is one of the most stupid statements ever put on this site
"The Razorbacks have a huge supporter base not only in west Sydney but regional Australia."
Your a complete clown Mookie who ever you are. I suggest you go over to a mirror have a look at yourself and ask what did the five fingers say to the face................SLAP!!!!
The pigs have no support which is why they want to move to a stadium that holds 2500.

Slap is right. Last time I saw any major support was when I watched the Sixers v Pigs Grand Final clash in 2002.
Glorious day for the Sixers again.

Bob Turner told me a few years back, that the Sydney Kings are everyone's second favourite team. Hard to argue with that. ;-)
