battle of the bumsniffers, which one is really more popular

[leagueiscrap]

we all know the NRL popularity is over inflated, thanks to the murdochs and packers of the 80s, taking the game off the ABC and airing it on commercial tv and foxtell. as well as their clubs are broken worthless pieces of crap, who cannot raise a doller with out their leagues clubs. with the AFL killing the NRL in every department, its only fair that we compare the 2 codes of bumsniffing union and league to find out which sport is aclturally more popular

Participation Rates
League 555,266k
Union 615,809k

Revenue total 314.3 million
Broadcast revenue 221.3 million
non broad cast revenue 90 million
included in the broadcast money is soo which raised 19.4 million revenue with out soo 70.6
sponsorship 25.7 million
crowd average 15.940k

Union total
total 145.729 million
Broadcast revenue 41,447 million
non broad cast revenue 104.282 million
sponsorship 27,1 million
crowd average 28.075k

the participation rates are strong but union is 60k ahead
the revenue raised from the non broad casting has the union ahead, by 34 million when taking out soo from the NRL
sponsorship union is ahead

so out side of the broadcast money league cannot raise a dollar
so really thanks to the packers & later on murdoch to bump up the broadcast deal, league has nothing else

there we have it, its rather easy so say that union is more popular than league

well league now has its alliance with touch footy australia which will if nothing else, give it claims to greater participation. Really though, that affliation could have gone either way if Union didnt have their heads up their ***

ive heard that from many union fans, how the officials are still living in the past.
league did well by aligning them self with the touch leagues, beating union to the punch, as much as touch is just fitness and social reasons, there are roughly 400 or 500k resisted participates ( ), its a step in the right direction to grow the code.

the last year or so the AFL has started up a form of touch footy of its own, except AFL based,http://afl9s.com.au/, again is a good direction for the game for people who like playing the game but not requiring the full fitness or wanting the pysical nature of it

:_<> :_<> :_<>

the highest rating yawnion TV show in 2013 was a Bloodyslow at about 1.2 Million
Leagues Origin III last year rated above 4.2 Million

Yawnions biggest crowd for 2013 was the Bloodyslow in Sydney at 67,000 ( lowest at the venue ever)
Leagues 3rd Origin attracted 83,813

an average NRL game rated at 954,000 in 2013

How the fuck can union get something that belongs to another game?

We are seeing this happen in Europe now where RL is taking back touch and tag as it rightfully should from Union as it has done in Aus.

Dear leagues rap you might just want to check a couple of your assumptions starting with rugby achieving 28,075 average crowd. If you know anything about rugby you know the Super Rugby crowds are no where that level and even adding in Test matches will not get you there.

It seems you have used a number from the Rugby report that relates to people who paid for Corporate hospitality which is not quite an average crowd number.

You might want to ask yourself why there are 15. NRL clubs and 5 Super Rugby clubs if Rugby is so popular.

You might want to ask a range of questions over respective TV audiences and payments ie why is league umpteen times bigger on both accounts if rugby so more popular?

You might want ask what does Rugbys claim of 665k in "participants" mean? Does Auskick come to mind?

the links are provided and those are the annual reports that both codes produce
so your calling them liar's both the union and league governing bodies
well know the league are good fudging numbers and been proven several times with their crowds
retarrrrrrrrrrrrrrded dave

[NRLCrap1]

Dave got burned again!

[enarelle]

Dear leagues rap please go and review the Rugby report and just find the spot that identifies the 28k average crowd. Happy top have you show that is the average crowd number not the hospitality number.

It may be Rugbys report but it does not guarantee correct interpretations or comparisons are made.

Given the Rebels and the Force would not have any chance of averaging such a number for home games and I don't believe the more popular Brumbies can get 28k into the stadium it would mean the other two would have average home crowds of well over 40k. Don't seem to recall that happening.
