Well that was easy.


Anyway. My post was if the afl could play games in isolation they would win. This is based on the fact that when games are played in isolation they out rate the nrl games most times. Therefore extra ratings would obviously come.

I acknowledge the benefits of showing games into markets ... but think there are some pros and many cons which Nrol has pointed out numerous times but seem to fall on deaf ears.

So my question was could the afl play games in isolation? I’ll ask this also ... if they could play in isolation would they continue to reguarly beat the nrl game it went up against ? Two questions there. Please explain your answers. And stick to topic please crapper. Bet you can’t. And I know why.


You are a NUTTER!!!. Stick to the facts not your nutter theories.

Wow. Way to avoid a basic question. Even when. I say you’ll avoid you still do it. Anyway I shall ask again.

Could the AFL play games in Isolation>> yes they could> but this would affect crowds and tv ratings>>
which happens to the NRL with 6pm Friday night and 6:30 sunday night games>>

so pro's and con's

I would love to see AFL go ISOLATION
The AFL do not do this as there would be many weak games Played Australia Wide which would get dull figures>>

any games having PORT, DEMONS, KANGAS, SUNS, LIONS, GWS

imagen have these teams on a super Saturday in ISOLATION>>

figures would be very low..

again PRO'S AND CON'S

now Please stick to subject>>

Why would it effect crowds?

Are you seriously saying 2 matches shown at the same time would get a higher ratings average than both in isolation? Surely not

You only have to look at the games shown in isolation. The AFL almost always outrate the nrl on fox and FTA when they have single matches shown at the same time. Why would this not also be the case for the remaining AFL games if they were also shown in isolation. The final series showed that to be the case

I think it could impact crowds for reasons stated. I’m not as convinced about ratings though although acknowledge points made.

NRL’s planned 2018 women’s competition could involve draft

THE NRL could hold a draft to equalise the talent across its proposed 2018 women’s competition

It is believed the option of drafting players is also being explored for several reasons, such as stopping a possible Warriors team from being made up of just Kiwi Ferns players or a side like the Broncos from fielding the Queensland women’s team.

Yep. They need to spread the talent evenly. I think it is a good idea to have a short comp next year to gauge where they're at and where they need to go in the ensuing years.

And as I stated in another post a ladies SOO stand alone Friday night game is to be played on the mens SOO weekend next year. That is a great initiative and has the real potential to be the top rating ladies sporting event of the year.

OK, After a very sluggish low scoring affair in the womens league>>

the AFL has acted.. (what competition calls all the clubs to change the playing style after game 1 ) WTF

THE AFL has sent an extraordinary memo, calling for AFLW coaches to adjust their tactics this weekend in order to reduce congestion.

foxfooty.com.au has obtained the memo, which was sent by AFL football operations boss Steve Hocking to the eight clubs with AFLW teams, that asks for coaches to instruct less players to surround stoppages in Round 2

The backlash comes after AFL boss Gillon McLachlan also attracted fierce criticism for his sensational move to call coaches and voice concerns over a lack of scoring and defensive tactics in the opening round.

I think the AFL are attempting to address the congestion without rule changes. Congested defensive play has been an issue in the mens game for a while now but they have the skill to break away from the congestion and free up play. The women just dont have the skill or pace to do this yet so it ends up being a mess. Add to that the limited distance they kick and you can see why their scoring is low. I think they need to make some changes to the AFLW. Maybe a smaller field and less players per team

Good idea lloollller! I suggest 13 players per team. A rectangular field 100m x 70m. An offside rule. Fumbling toward the goal line not allowed. Must pass backwards. Yep....that oughta fix it!!!!

its just a very odd thing to do when the season has started..

i get in the off season they look at different ways to structure the game
and have more a free flowing game..

But this looks like the AFL just want to see more attractive footy being played..
at the same time> if some teams change and some dont.>

it could affect who wins and losess..

the AFL should leave it alone and make rule changes end of season.
