Re: Just Wow!
Pity the NRL can’t do that with their grand final....which is what the super bowl is to the NFL.
State of Origin is closer to the NFL pro bowl which is not as popular as super bowl.
SOO always surprises me in that:
1. It’s more popular than the regular season finale.
2. A lot of NRL fans seem to think this (SOO) proves how great the NRL is.

SOO it not only outrates the NRL Grand Final it outrates the AFL Grand Final too... on most occasions
SOO is a very unique concept that has went on to work, and it is nothing like the PRO BOWL>

Re: Just Wow!
at this point in time
NSW will allow the Grand final to be capped at 40k in 84k stadium.
QLD is allowing 30k for Grand Final in a 43k Stadium.
With Social distancing remaining the same in both states and rules.
This does not make sense at all.

Re: Just Wow!
So 1 game of SOO (not 3 added together) out rated the AFL Grand Final in 2019?

Re: Just Wow!
I'm surprised they didn't go for a best of three for the AFL grand final this year given the compromised season and given they were wanting to try new things. I think the best of three concept works best when each side plays each other once.

Re: Just Wow!
Yes, That's correct. Actually I think there were 2 Origin matches that got higher ratings than the AFL Grand Final.Quolls2019 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 7:36 pmSo 1 game of SOO (not 3 added together) out rated the AFL Grand Final in 2019?
* I looked it up, just 1 last year it must of been 2 the year before.

But The AFL Grand Final and 1 game of the SOO are Close, The NRL Grand final not so much..
