What, you lot are the ones that know it all, you should be running the reserve bank instead of looking after mothers caravan park.

Know all.

Looks like the mod thinks soo is a gimmick as well.

The mod believes that people in Victoria, SA and WA tune in more for the theatre of the event itself than for any genuine love of rugby league. Of course Ill no doubt be proven wrong when 400,000 people watch any given round of rugby league in Melbourne on a weekend (its just under half of the entire seasons ratings in Melbourne)......right?

I mean 89,000 watched in Adelaide last night - its more than watched league all year in Adelaide, the game isnt even shown live this year, except on Sunday afternoons - and even then only recently. The Perth ratings are about 40% of the entire season shown so far.

Yes its a series of theatre events outside of NSW and QLD.

Who gives a flying fuck why they watch it mr green with envy, they are watching.

You just have the shits cause you kicks and dribbles can't match it, not even the gf matches it these days with the swines playing or the bad news bears.



It burns, I know it does, that's why we will continue to rub it in each and every season

Here, have some more

The Storm with just a couple of years of pre midnight coverage got over 100k for there theatrical semi last year (metro only) .

and 15 years of huge success, all available on foxtel

Yep, people had to actually pay to watch the storm if they wanted too and not have them shoved down their throat continually untill most got the shits and started turning the tv over whenever they were mentioned.

Over saturation they call it.

it burns as much as 4 million watching the soccer WC. Everyone knows soccer is a minor sport in Australia, and thr ratings relate to the event, not the sports popularity in Australia

AFL fans don't care about matching it, they find it funny what happens to the rest of the fans of SOO for the rest of the year and every other game of League

[leagueiscrap]

Wed TV #Origin Game 1 *update* Nine/GEM/WIN-NBN 3,620,000
Metro 2,433,000 (inc GEM Per) Regional 1,187,000
Sky Sport NZ 113k
80k at game

Then watch the bandwagon fans disappear by the weekend

Poor delusional fool!

check the past stats of the last decade flog
then get back to me
state vs state gimmick, FFS do you basement dewllers have any friends or ever leave the basement!

SOO is an excuse to have a BBQ or or hang out and have a few beers with friends or down the pub, turn up/ have to a social event mid week
watch one state beat another state NSW BLOOOOZE vs QLD MOROONS

[ParraEelsNRL]

It burns.

Hey good luck to the soccer and the unionites if they get 4 million watching.

You won't see threads at League forums crying about it unless it's a troll who makes it, now look at you lot each may of the year here and at Bigfooty and other forums.

SOO SOO SOO.

Bahahahahaah greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen

[leagueiscrap]

nice to see you keep attempting to refer to SOO yet ignoring my comment about where does every one go for the rest of league
basement dwellers

if it wasnt for the fact it derailed your NRL season you may have point

[AFLcrap1]

Lol .
Basement basement .

Get some new material dumbo .


& no one denies it affects our regular season .
But that's a small price to pay for having the biggest sporting event in the country.
What we lose in one area is more than compensated for by SOO .

a small price to pay 3 games state vs state, then the other 362 days of the year are irrelevant and every other game that is played of league is irrelevant?


where does every one go such a huge event, SOO state vs state, people have an excuse for a mid week socal event, piss up with mates.
but where does all the fans do after SOO
its simple state vs state, mid week socal BBQ & piss up when the game is over people get on with their life & League goes back to being irrlevant again

[AFLcrap1]

Every other game is irrelevant .
Oh my .

Does that include the NRL GF that also beats your GF .
Lol you are thick .

No one doubts the SOO is a major event, but to claim the affect on your regular season is small is ridiculous.

[AFLcrap1]

Comprehension son .
You fumblers should try it .

I said it affects our comp yes .
But it's a small price to pay .
Not that the effect was small .
Lol

small price to pay? You obviously dont place much value on your NRL season.

That's the main reason the SOO in AFL fizzled out. Players and fans didnt want a meaningless game threatening their AFL season with players risking injury
