Re: Fan Feedback

Long weekends/public holidays won't be affected by this decision (there is still a game on Easter Monday, for example).

Due to the time difference, the later scheduled games in Perth take place earlier over there.

This is great. The Swans' week 1 finals crowd trounces every nRL week 1 finals crowd, including 2 games featuring 2 Sydney teams , and what's the throwballer's response? "um....well.....Swans crowd should have been even bigger" http://guypedliham.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/3-3.jpg?w=450&a...

Re: What do NRL fans think of Port Adelaide's new tradition?

:lol: cos I don't give two shits whether the fans enjoy it or not. I'm simply analysing the tradition. I find that playing a love song before men play what is considered a contact sport is kinda well confused is my analysis. It's odd and weird and it doesn't make sense. Sure it's something a bunch ...

Re: AFL v NRL Friday night ratings in 2014

Nice. And the AFL didn't need to play 2 games targeting 2 different markets to reach those figures.

Re: down down the NRL's crowds are down again

They talk about raising crowds, but they really don't care. It's all about ratings for them, as evidenced by putting their blockbusters on Thursday night with little if any regard for hte impact on crowds.
