Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Way to go ladies. Yep, harsh reality for the soccer lover and things will only get worse once mens BBL cricket begins.
World game apparently.
Lucky for Channel 10 they got the soccer tv rights for free. Who’d seriously pay for that shit to be on FTA tv in Australia? Beyond embarrassing.

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
The big bash is just cricket trying to emulate a superior code. Major League Baseball.
What is even funnier is they only have 8 teams. Are 30 in the Major League.
Should just leave cricket to subcontinental nations to play.

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Great ratings for the ladies cricket but the soccer folk must be starting to worry with the mens BBL about to start as well.
There doesn't seem to be any marquee players in the Aleague this year which is really hurting them. When they had Del Peira, Heskey and Ono a few years ago the crowds and ratings were way up on what they are now.
The only positive is that if some clubs can find the money to get some top line international players things could turn around pretty quick.

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
yeah good points Tez.
I like it when you post like this
even with better FTA coverage of better blockbuster games
the A League is struggling to get anything good.
I do recall BUZZ Phil Rothfield saying that the A League Derby is the biggest game in NSW
he's been very quiet>>

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Oh gawd, yeah I remember that rubbish about the Sydney soccer derby. Crowds at ANZ Stadium appear to have halved since last year and the tv ratings... shesshleeroy*NRL* wrote: ↑Mon Dec 11, 2017 10:41 amit is quite Embarrassing..

Just imagine from that 55,000 FTA viewers nationwide on Saturday night, just how small the actual Sydney breakdown was? Scary thought for soccer fans no doubt.
The GWS Giants easily get bigger tv audience numbers in Sydney and yet we are constantly told they have no support. What’s that tv ratings comparison then say about soccer’s popularity in Sydney then? Hmm

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Usually the AL starts with huge fanfare & media hype .
This year seemed to be low key .....I can see why
The ratings are terrible
& when the BBL starts it usually confines the AL to OBLIVION .
This year the AL is already half way in the door to oblivion before a ball is bowled

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Will soccer go the way of basketball in Australia? I remember the NBL began to get a decent following in the 90's, and had a reasonable following on FTA TV. Now the clubs struggle and the league has a poor following despite decent participation numbers.

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
it is about 800 down on last years average crowd, so yea a MASSIVE difference, idiots.
BTW bigger crowds for Sydney FC v Wanderers than Swans V Giants, after all isn't that what you like comparing, Swans v NRL Teams?
Two team city A league v AFL in Sydney and AFL doesn't even come close to the proper Sydney Derby

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
the 2 Sydney A league teams average 15k and 17k for home attendance, while the Swans average 33k and the giants 13k. That's 46k for the AFL v 32k for the A league.post_hoc wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2017 1:39 pmit is about 800 down on last years average crowd, so yea a MASSIVE difference, idiots.

800 per game is a decent drop given your game only averages a bit over 12k. In fact the A league has dropped in average attendance for 4 years in a row, and down again so far this year

Post_hoc does it concern you that women’s cricket outrates your biggest domestic league derby game easily?

Re: Womens Cricket rates better on TV than Mens Soccer in Australia
Yearly average is far more relevant than a single derby, especially when one of the derbies is held at a ground with a small capacity
