More self ownage .
I was waiting for the gimmick rant .


So a GIMMICK GIMMICK game in a dead rubber series that is supposedly dying is still GIMMICK GIMMICK far more popular than every fumble game bar one .
Gimmick gimmick gimmick .

Keep ranting .
You can't avoid the facts .
spazza i keep pointing out the facts from the article and you keep avoidingit
cheapo $30 a ticket & slowest ticket sales in history for game one :)))
the NRLOL are trying anything to have the game sold out
Mate you're on a hiding to nothing. No matter how much you talk it down this game, as pointed out, will rate more than any other AFL game this year bar 1. What does that say about your game??

It's about now the RL haters look really desperate. They're going to hang their hats on a game that will rate more than 3 mill and call it a failure. lolololol.

This is all about swings and roundabouts. If next years series is decided 2-1 to either side ratings records will again be smashed.

Haters are just gonna hate!!!!
true point SOO figures can depend alot on what game it is.
A decider is usually the highest game
and if not it is game 1

Except when NSW claimed a drought breaking game 2 win to claim the series

that is why BUZZ is a complete knob (it cannot be compared)

I think ORIGIN can only get bigger, like it has on trends as QLD has dominated..

NSW just need to lift there game.

It wouldn't matter if SOO cooled down anyway as there are heaps of Kiwis and Islanders in the League now that can't play SOO so the focus will move to Internationals and along with that there are quite a few Poms out here now near enough already to form a pretty formidable Test side without their Super League stars. Wayne Bennett has seen the writing on the wall, that's why he jumped at the chance to coach England. He knows how big the series can be and all it will take is the poms to actually win something against Australia and the old Test flame will be reignited.

This seasons 4 nations could be the deathknell for Origin if the Poms perform with WB at the helm, the publicity alone from our own media leading into next years WC will be something to behold, the papers and WB do not get along.

good comment..

I have been waiting a number of years for the POMS to rise
it would do the game wonders..

by Bringing back the ASHES it will only help. [-o<

Agreed. I am old enough to remember the test series in the 60's and early 70's when the Poms had great sides with players like Tommy Bishop, Mal Reilly, Roger Millward, Cliff Watson, Phil Lowe and many many others. If they can get back to that level and win series against Aust. the international game will go through the roof.

Can you imagine the haters then lolololol. They will have to put up with a domestic comp. that out rates theirs plus 3 SOO games that rate 3 to 4.5 mill plus internationals that will smash anything they have bar one game. Bring it on lololololol.

that's right,

R.L has so much to offer in the international game.
England got so close in 2013 W.C

AUS v NZ was watched by 3.5mill on the BBC let alone the 73k in attendance
imagen if England had made the final..

AFL has hit its peak.. unless they go to N.Z :lol:

Prime example of people interested in their state playing another state! Club nrlol :-k where is the interest spazza?

Looks like it by the facts that once prized possession of a soo ticket is loosing it's interest! Slowest sales in history and at $30 a seat.

Soo is a beast. No doubt about it. How do we get people to get along and show the same interest in the nrl season games re getting along to the game. Or maybe this is why afl does so well in crowds as that is all they have .. Home and away is the main Comp and being limited to no internationals and soo being difficult due too many states ... Then all the afl fan has as its pinochle is the afl season? It's a dilemma I guess ...

Ok dumbo

I'll dumb it down for you ..
I'll ask in language you should understand.

How does it feel that a GIMMICK GIMMICK game ...
In a GIMMICK GIMMICK dead rubber series
Will be more popular than every game of fumbles played this yr ...bar the GF

Gimmick gimmick

How does that make you feel .
A gimmick that according to some is nearly dead .....or dying .
Fans are sick of ..
Just a gimmick Gimmick ..
Is still more popular than all your games .

very good points freddy..

H&A AFL Season has to be high, as its the Pinnacle..

where as in R.L Internationals and SOO are thrown into the season..

while it is great having extra product (it is going to have roll on affect on your H&A Season)

being there are higher levels to attend and watch.

Mate, you lose on every point. The NRL H&A season gets bigger aggregate and average ratings than the AFL does. Add in SOO and internationals and it's a smash up derby. Back to the Melbourne suburbs for you pal!!
