    Top 5 sporting brands?

    Our cannons are loaded and we’re aiming high. By 2020, The West Coast Pirates will be among the top five most recognised and respected Sporting Brands in Australia.

    I was just reading the Perth Pirates website and came across the above statement. I'm guessing they'll do well to be in the top 50 sporting brands, but what does everyone think the 5 most recognised sporting brands in Austalia are?

    I'll probably get booed off the site for saying this, but I reckon it'll probably be Manchester United, Arsenal, Red Bull Racing, McLaren F1 and New York Yankees

    Feel free to insert other big international sporting brands here.

    Even Eddie McGuire can't make an Australian sporting organisation get onto that list!

    Benson and Hedges along with brand O'Connor will be more recognisable

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Who's the Diamonds?

    Ok I know they are the netball team, but I don't think they will be top 5.

    This was a list from the Herald Sun a few years ago: http://www.waynecovell.com/documents...nAustralia.pdf

    It only covers club sides though so the likes of the Wallabies, Socceroos, State of Origin, Australian cricket team and Australian F1 Grand Prix are not included.

    Maybe you could consider how many women there are in the country and how many of them follow netball.
    I agree the cricket team are high profile with major following. But a "Brand"? What is it? How many know their current shirt sponsor without looking.
