Re: AFL Season so far

most attendees for the fumbling game are cultists , they are no marker for the state of the health of your game. Brain washed to think every fumble , every miss is just amazing :hmm: And your players taking drugs is fine And your governing body telling them those players are injured .. when they're...

Re: AFL Season so far

I, and millions of other I suspect, are enjoying it. Ratings is just one metric, albeit a significant one, but so to are crowds which have been extremely good in the main. most attendees for the fumbling game are cultists , they are no marker for the state of the health of your game.

AFL Season so far

Looking at the ladder it seems to be one of the closet seasons by far. North are clearly out of it and a basketcase - and Richmond are riddled with injuries. West Coast beating Melbourne was a turn up and you'd think they will win a few more going forwards - particularly at home. The 8 is usually pr...

Re: 147 people

Did not like a great crowd - yes the weather wasn’t great but still, that’s a poor crowd - especially for an AFL gsme - even in Sydney. I think we all agree the Giants need a reboot from a marketing perspective.

Re: Surely fumblers .............. surely

Re: Surely fumblers .............. surely

they haven't finished what ? I thought you were saying the Women's game won the ratings .... or that people in NSW and QLD were preferring to watch the women's game as if this was already the case being shown that is all. are you seriously suggesting they wouldn't ? that fumbling mess from Darwin l...

Re: Surely fumblers .............. surely

I’m watching the suns v Geelong game and it’s a shocker / close but ordinary in that the ball is so wet (31 degrees) the skills are terrible - truely a fumble game tonight lol. Damn good in the end… Good win - but the quality of football wasn't great I thought. Good crowd though - all seats sold.

Re: Surely fumblers .............. surely

I think Geelong playing will see a lot more Victorians watching than a north melbourne would get but can't see it being a big rating game in south australia and Western Australia. And given we don't get figures for Darwin then that will also impact - same with Tassie. I don't suspect the women's So...

Re: Should the Suns play in Darwin/NT

Just another example of AFL expansion teams failing as a result of the AFL's ego I agree re: recouping money - but think this is short sighted. The Suns are tracking okay on the gold coast considering the challenges the gold coast market provide for many sporting teams. They do not seem to be anywh...

Should the Suns play in Darwin/NT

A little pet peeve of mine is the Suns, who are trying to build on their following and support in a non-traditional market, playing games in Northern Territory. I just don't get this - as to why the AFL would do this. The more games at home the better I feel and this promotional part of the season s...
