Preliminary #NRLtvratings for Round 8 total in at 6.580m at an average of 822,000 per match. Revised Preliminary AFL tv ratings for Round 6 total in at 6.438m at an average of 715,000 per game. Outstanding ratings One game per week less than the Fumblers & we will smash them YET AGAIN this year.

The Suns turned the corner this year playing a more consistent brand of football winning games and winning fans ( multi generational Queenslanders ). I will send a white flag to Robina stadium to be raised on their flagpole. Which corner . Looks like they took a wrong turn :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Broadcasters say they fear the AFL’s two expansion clubs – the Gold Coast Suns and Greater Western Sydney – are “going backwards” a decade on from their formation. Ratings have declined and crowds have not increased. but somehow Members have increased lol (go figure) Backwards :badgrin: :badgrin: L...

Gunna be a slaughter without SOO .

Ratings in Adelaide were up this weekend.. But that did include primetime games to Crows and Port Thursday 148k Friday 103k Saturday 130k Sunday 62k So to Answers PETES comment.. (the entire state got behind it) hmmm yeah no so much.. a Lift but not by that much Lol Pete in the bubble Truth dies in...

The Lions played an awesome game also on Saturday in SA vs North Melbourne. Both the Lions & the Broncos are looking good this year. I don't think they have ever been both so good the same year so this year is very exciting. Both the Gold Coast teams suck though as normal. Jesus h fuck You thin...

On another note, how good was gather round in Adelaide on the weekend. Apparently the whole state stopped to watch & follow it. It dominated the media. Brisbane could only dream of that happening with the magic round where only Rugby League diehards really follow it. It just shows the differenc...

I do not disagree with what you are saying.
All the reasons listed are why they do not have it in Sydney.

you said it was to boost attendances

All the “others” follow the increase in attendees.

But that is not why it was done .

It’s a silly idea. Not needed. Even sillier try to copy the NRL when the only reason they do it is to boost attendances. And 18 games? Horseshit about boosting attendances . Jesus Christ what planet are you on ? So they do it because….. They do a promotional in regional areas…no. They do it in sydn...

AFL sell out is rarely a full house

NRL sell out less than 500 below capacity .

I noticed the Pies v Power game was not televised into Brisbane on FTA last week. Found that interesting. Here is a perfect example of living in the delusional AFLOL bubble. Why would they bother showing that game when the local team gets horrendous ratings The bubble dweller thinking . :rofl: :rof...

Lions got heaps of media prior to the broncos dolphins game - a lot of it due to the lions game being on at the same time. As noted- it led the Today show breakfast news on the day. Not saying there wasn’t a lot about the dolphins and broncos but to say it shut out any media on the lions is simply ...
