Given ratings are averaged over time, and AFL matches and post match stuff amost always rates higher, thats an interesting call.

Its listed on a number of sites. Australian most watched show 2017 - Origin 3.

congrats. You yet again miss the point of my post. Would the average have been affected if it was only two hours? Id very much like to see some of the 15 minute breakdowns.

Maybe it would have maybe it wouldn't have . if if if..... they certainly would of got less money of the networks.

Another million+ for the kangaroos last night. I thought this year was going to be close. As it turns out were going to get more ratings than last year.

Gold, Gold, Gold, You'd think we'd get sick of it.....but we don't

Wow. what a team. Another million + for the Kangaroo's last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That Atmosphere in Auckland was EPIC>

congrats to N.Z Crowds you made this world cup

ratings would decrease due to a longer telecast

it would only be a 15min extension >> with nothing but extra advertising breaks delivering a bigger $$
so there is the positive..

NRL with half time only does help figures >> by how much who knows>> very minimal.
but I doubt having extra break or 2 would see a big decline...
would be very minimal.

there are advantages and disadvantages. 3 lengthy breaks in the game would turn some viewers off. If the game was one-sided people are less likely to wait for a break to watch the final quarter

That's why only half time is a lengthy break!

You should go to the basketball: you can't even go to the toilet!

Pure f'n scam artists those bastards!

The reason rugby has two halves: it's a simple game and the crowd expect it to just be over and done with!



If you give them quarter and three quarter time you will just encourage vice within the stadium walls!

True story.....

well if it comes down to basic numbers I wouldn't be to surprised considering 100 is half of 150

Pussycat, what is 50% of 2 hours? 1 hour

Therefore to go from 2 hours to 3 hours you need a 50% increase. To go from 75 minutes to 150 minutes you need a 100% increase.

What level of education did you get to? Your maths is primary school level, and you still dont know the difference between they're, their and there.

Yet AFLcrap picks on Victorian education. LOL

An AFL match lasts 150m. (therefore 1/3 of an AFL game would be 50m) . Therefore 2/3 of an AFL match would be 100m. The length of a Rugby league match is 100m. (therefore the same time for 1 league match = the time for 2/3 of an AFL match) so the difference between the two games is 1/3 or 50m.

What else are you Victorians taught as school? No wonder you think AFL is doing well

It's supposed to be 100 minutes of football!

Traditionally that was always the case!

Who the f knows now?

I disagree: the fitness of rugby players is one of the main drawers to the game... the weakening of the opposition as opposed to the victor is what allows the lines to break down in defence and so allow a score to develop!

Thus, if you give them quarter and three quarter time you would just see a super extra scary version of a roided up national r%}^]#[%s league!

Mark my words: it won't happen because society demands it won't happen!

Go on: tell me I'm wrong
