Are ok pal?? You seem a tad upset lolololol!!!!!!!Beaussie wrote: ↑Wed Jul 31, 2019 6:44 pmOK, let’s use a RL fans logic to rank the codes in NSW by only looking at tv ratings and in this instance comparing World Cup Socceroos ratings against the Sydney Swans cause we clearly can’t compare Swans vs Sydney FC or Western Sydney Wanderers or Waratahs apparently. But anyway let’s continue.
The highest rating AFL game in Sydney was the 1996 Grand Final Sydney vs North Melbourne where 1.018 million viewers tuned in, in Sydney alone.
Got a Socceroos, Matildas or Wallabies game that rated better in Sydney?
Nah didn’t think so.
Fuck you leaguies and soccer fruit loops, even old Roy can acknowledge the facts every so often.
So again, AFL dwarfs soccer and rugby union in crowds, memberships, sponsorships and yep even tv ratings in Sydney to be ranked 2nd behind the NRL.the 1996 grand final between the Swans and North Melbourne, attracted 1.018m viewers in Sydney

That’s reality people. Leaguies of course can never bring themselves to admit that and will continue to tell us we are delusional. Fair dinkum eh? Seriously...
Oh and whenever a fuck head RL fan questions the AFL’s expansion, consider this:
More than 4 million fans watched AFL Grand Final between Western Bulldogs and Sydney
AAP, Herald Sun
October 2, 2016
THE bumper TV ratings for Saturday’s grand final highlight why the AFL is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into the two northern expansion teams.
The Western Bulldogs’s fairytale win over Sydney was the fourth most-watched game in AFL history.
The combined metro and regional average of 4.089 million viewers on the Seven Network was a whopping 16 per cent increase on last year’s Hawthorn v West Coast Grand Final.
It also means the top six games are all Sydney Grand Finals.
The record remains Sydney’s 1996 Grand Final loss to North Melbourne at 4.4 million, which narrowly beat their drought-breaking 2005 win over West Coast.
The Swans’ Grand Final loss to West Coast in 2006 is third at 4.15 million. Sydney’s 2012 grand final win over Hawthorn and their ‘14 loss to the Hawks fill the next two spots.
The AFL have set up the Giants and Gold Coast as the cornerstones of a long-term strategy to strengthen the game’s presence in NSW and Queensland.

Have you got the ratings the Swans got in GF's after 1996?? From memory they got less and less with each iteration of the mess. Obviously the punters woke up lololol!!!!
AFL is 2nd in domestic comp support in NSW. Overall RU is 2nd on the back of the Wallabies. You know......bledisloe cups, world cups & Sanzaar.
Your mob and soccer can battle it out for 3rd and 4th. Good luck!!!!!!
