but for me, in the women's i would have a 3 game series.

and in the future if i would have a 3 game series in IRELAND>

Yet another Thursday night smashing win for the AFL head to head with the NRL last night. Gees, I honestly cannot even remember the last time the AFL did not win the tv ratings in prime time on a Thursday or Friday night. Big increase in the 7plus BVOD numbers too by the looks of it.

The AFL was up against the NRL in Sydney last night with games scheduled next door to each other.

SCG members were also forced to choose one code other the other with their access to both stadiums.

Sydney Swans vs Adelaide Crows @ SCG
Crowd: 33,413

Sydney Roosters vs ...

Desperately need to win a few more games and put this behind them.
Some good form would help make this yesterdays news.

The next AFL deal should be bigger than any NRL deal.
It only needs an increase of 18 % to beat it, as it currently stands $643 million vs $ 757 million
Does anybody really think that the AFL deal won't increase by more than this margin in several years time. ?

Just to clarify … 5.3 billion is only for the Australian NRL tv rights.
NZ will add to that in the hundreds of millions

A 20th is built into the deal
The NRL is looking at close to 820mill to 850mill approx a year by 2029
Around 120% increase

and we still have PNG and Telstra Digital and ...

Often at training an incident involving head contact can result in a concussion just as debilitating as what a player may suffer in a game.

The new rule to come into effect next year will limit the amount of contact during training.

Good to see the AFL come out and commit fully to Western Sydney. Interestingly, the AFL has final say with any potential name change. Games in Canberra with no mention of Western Sydney on the club kit surely goes to the point that the connection with new fans in Western Sydney has not been ‘good ...

Plenty of ovals in India.
Would need to be a long term commitment with some big funding to have any chance.
Nothing wrong with having a go. Cannot do any worse than the NRL Vegas debacle.
About time the NRL quit it's Vegas embarrassment, it's become a joke that's not funny anymore , plenty of ...

A very challenging draw and next few weeks for the Suns starting with Hawthorn on Friday night, An away game against Fremantle in Perth next week, before Collingwood on the Gold Coast, and then an away trip to Adelaide to face the Crows.

Should Suns fans be concerned?

Playing Fremantle in Primetime this year is working a treat..

They are rating very very strongly not just because of being top of the ladder but also their style of play is a joy to watch.

Wasn't it a Melbourne home game? Plus Melbourne are not a high drawing club either - so I gather this is why they played this game in Alice Springs


Melbourne home games in Alice Springs where capacity is 7,200 at TIO Traeger Park

R18 2019 vs West Coast = 7,164
R10 2018 vs Adelaide = 6,989 ...

Gee whiz, another thumping win for the AFL head to head with the NRL last night. The NRL also featured the Melbourne Storm prime time on Channel 9 in Melbourne.

Only a completely moronic organisation would fund a team in one of the top five crime capitals of the world.
The American NFL would never fund such an idiotic scheme as to build an expansion club in crime ridden Haiti .
