Netball is a very popular participation sport but it doesn't have a huge following from a professional standpoint. Netball may have seen more boys start playing but I don't know many guys who watch the sport or could name many Super Netball League players.
That’s always been a challenge discussing the netball team on here. Many folks follow the assumption that “I don’t follow netball, none of my mates follow netball, therefore nobody follows netball”
And that assumption just isn’t true.
Maybe you and your mates don’t follow line dancing either, but go onto YouTube and you’ll find line dancing videos with kazillions of views.
There is a big wide world out there of very fringe esoteric stuff that large subcultures of people somehow seem interested in. And AFL footy is definitely one of them - it just might not seem that way to you or me.
