With regionals this will be close

Cowboys regionals typically rate anywhere from 310 - 370k

our regionals will be 200-250k so we will end up 1.03-1.08m

If you get 370k you'll end up 1.08m

As I said, it'll be close

our regionals for the main channel were 356k. Gem regionals would be about 10k, sky would be another 20-30k = Another silver medal for XMan.

But but but

maybe if you had more teams in more cities you'd be able to do this too

lol no but but butting..

it actually looks worst for the AFL

3 games 2 beat 1 game

one game at 1pm live into Adelaide/Sydney
one game at 3:20pm live into melbourne
one game at 4:40pm live into perth

while all games being live of FOX attracting more viewers from other states.

so they were not all at the same time, yes some overlapping

Quite pathetic really

you know very well it isnt 3 games, its only one game into every city.

As for 3 games into 3 cities, this is often a disadvantage. For example the Crows v Swans game on Saturday night was one of the games of the season yet was only shown into Sydney and Adelaide. The rest of the country was forced to watch pathetic Carlton in a boring one-sided game. If the Adelaide game had been shown nationally it would have rated far better. The foxtel ratings prove this with the Adelaide game rating around 3 times the Carlton game.

The AFL simply cant avoid this with so many teams spread across 5 cities. Simple fact is over 1 mil watching 3 hours on a Sunday arvo at the same time is miles above what the NRL can produce =D>

Very true what Pussycat said.

Yes 1 game into every city, Picking the best rating game.

and if other states cant watch on FTA

not a problem will just catch it on fox.


you could of watched the Whole port v giants game and freo v kangas game.
without over lapping

one FTA and one on fox after each other..

heck you could of watched 3/4 of the pies game
and flicked it over for the kangas game and watched half a game..

it all counts.

No, the Pies v demons was early in the 3rd quarter when the Kangas started.

As I explained with the Crows game, often the better game is only shown into a few markets which actually decreases ratings.

The NRL have the ideal setup where they can engage their entire metro audience by showing the Broncos vs a big Sydney club, all in prime time and all in the one game.

The AFL can never engage all metros in one game, and never in prime time because of the 2 hour time zone difference,

still a good result for the AFL getting over 1mil with a very one-sided game which was shown at 6pm on a work day in Perth, and up to 11pm in Victoria.

I stated you could watch half a kangas game..
which still adds up..

Yes I did watch the full Crows game,

But still it was on fox.

what about the Great games Fox has on Saturday night, gets no FTA.

you have to take the good with the bad.

Because if Perth are watching a Perth team they rate 85k not 125k , 30% extra - ditto the other states. 30% +30% +.................

60% of people watch a couple of games.
30% a few more
about 5% would watch all matches. your concurrent matches theory is CRAP! people watch the main matches only...... Switching over during the breaks, which boosts the Lions total.

yes yes we know. The NRL do that by showing the broncos almost every Friday, and have done so for years. The NRL can do it with a single game because their entire heartland metro market lives in 2 cities. The AFL need at least 2 games to do it.

The NRL has two states and it can only be expected they will show half to each. Qld has just 3 teams , so what do you expect. Of the 7 Fri matches this year they've played in 3( hardly every week). On Thu night its just 2 of 7. The NRL have also played there bottom sides Newcastle, Gold Coast and New Zealand. When will the AFL be playing there bottom sides? what? Never, just like every other year.

Collingwood, Richmond, Carlton and Essedon will all be bottom 8 this year and at least one has played in every FN game.

I have no real issue with the NRL showing Brisbane v Sydney on FN, but dont pretend its comparable to a Melb v Melb AFL game. Friday night prime time games in Melbourne will never maximise our audience because of the time difference in Perth. This Friday will be about the closest comparison with Adelaide playing Hawthorn.

Another good week for the NRL

[eelofwest]

NRL 2016 ratings after 7 rounds 28.449m without NZ Sky which was 1.249m after 7 rounds in 2015.

Effectively the NRL is up about 5million viewers after round 7 when we do a like for like comparison to last years figures.

[Xman]

N rl have increaed fox games by 40% and live fta games by 50%, so an increased total was inevitable

Have individual games increased?

Stop wasting our time with kindergarten grade questions.
