I’m fully expecting the normal metho rant/deflect, possibly followed by a stalker siding with said ranger and telling us to stop clogging threads.

Adumb is the original ‘emo meltdown’.

Four usernames after repeated bannings for emo meltdowns proves it

:lol:
Says the one who started a new app thread today as his little bubble has been burst
Is a gimmick (ie your description for SOO) bigger than any game the Afl produces each and every year? If so please, explain to us how this feels. Does it make you a bit ... emo?

:lol:
here is one for you Eliagh king of the basement dwellers
no i or many other afl fans dont really care about the event of SOO
is SOO reflects the true popularity of league in Australia, who is the national team the Kangawhoos so irrelevant.
why do they rate not much more than the average friday night NRLOL H&A game
why are their crowds so bad!
imean in the most recent NRLOL World Cup the featuring featuring Australia and still only attracted 40k

all these endless threads only really continue to prove how insecure you dweebs are and how a marketed event of one state vs another state can attract fans for the evening and not actuary care so much about the dog shit product aka league

It’s very hard to read, the English is poorer than what a Mongolian goat might speak after two months in a trailer park in southern USA but .... I think I detect half an answer!

To my question is a gimmick bigger than any other game I think his reply was

“no i or many other afl fans don’t really care about the event of SOO”

I really like how he managed to capitalise SOO and not afl :lol: basically tho I’m thinking he thinks STATE IF ORGIBS are not as big assume Afl games...

Did anyone manage to come across the state of origin 3rd match tv figures from Perth?

We know state of origin is the most important event to attend in Perth but not sure about tv viewers. Like I expected the Afl to win for highest attendances is expect that state of origin would come nowhere near a west coast finals match for example...but on that wintery rainy eve a few Sunday nights ago the people of Perth showed us what they see as most important so who knows!!

Comparing fortnightly games to a one of marquee event. Desperate much.

i think he is comparing a rugby league game... yes being Origin football, but a rugby league event
NSW v QLD in Perth rating this high..

If we compare the Swans for example are lucky to get 40k Average in Sydney per game on FTA

If you x that by 22 games = 880k FTA for the entire season.

Perth for example got 407 for 3 games..

Putting the Swans popularity into prospective

Very tidy analysis there Leeroy. I think we could also further proportion the tv viewers based on Sydney having a much bigger population than Perth and rugby league would come up looking even shinier on this one.

I’d like to know how much viewers might watch west coast in a final versus some melb side... anyone know this or able to give me a link to where I could lookup ??

I’m sure they could play the super bowl in Perth and it would sell out, rate it’s arse off across the country etc. but it would hardly represent popularity. And if someone supporting grid iron got on her trying to say grid iron was more popular than Australian rules I think they would be rightly ridiculed.

I’d put any money that if the gridiron rocked up in Perth on a wintery rainy Sunday eve there’d be way less than what origin produced a few weeks ago. Actually if gridiron rocked up on even a sunny arvo they still would fail to topple SOO.

A west coast home final on a sunny day can’t even beat origin and on average that event happens less than once a year :(/

I think the whole point of the argument is>>

It is a Rugby League Game, And what some games of Rugby League can achieve
In Perth without even having a team.. which adds value to the Tv Deal.

Perth seem to produce better figures than Melbourne with a much lower population
and time zone difference, all this without a team.
