regards to the lockdown argument that has arisen...

wouldn't a lock down in Victoria benefit the AFL over NRL>

if there were a lockdown in NSW it would benefit Rugby league more than the AFL.
wouldnt having 2 big cities involved in the NRL GF compared to only one for the AFL advantage the NRL?

I guess it helps to be in lockdown.

Wasnt 'A Star is born' a big box office hit 18months months back. I wonder what they will run next weekl
sssshhhh
don't talk sense to these fumbling halfwits. Thats just not on.
Lockdown added probs 300K to their tally in the end .... & anyone with a brain is not going to believe

that 850K watched both Grand finals in the regionals
with 6 Million people to draw on in the NRL heartland regionals
and 3 million in the AFL regionals

take it as you must, But the NRL GF was a shocker.

22- 0 at Half Time

26 - 0 at the 57th minute>>

If it wasn't for the 2 sin bins to the storm which made panthers score 4 try's

to give the score line some creditability.

(in my 25 years of watching Grand Final's i would put this game and 2008 Grand final
as the worst ever.
I disagree in part Leeroy.
Storms defence was incredible to watch. Panthers threw everything at them.
And with the Panthers first try being total bull shit, which I can't understand for the life of me why it wasn't challenged.

The 2 sin bins as you say was the catalyst for them to score.

The other highlight was listening to Gus squirm....

Couldn't challenge as it went to the video ref anyway - but it seemed clear to those who know such a ex-players commentating - that it was not a try cause he went behind his player to kick.

Also - how bias was Gus Gould..... think he hates Melbourne much.


And how good was Cameron Smith mentioning the Big V - funnily enough I have never thought of Melbourne as representing Victoria - thought that was a good move by Smith. The Big V brought memories of State of Origin in AFL or the VFL v Sa or WA etc.

it would if it were a close game, but this was no contest. 26 - 0 with 23mins to go.
its like being down by 70 to 0 leading into the final quarter. lol

NRL's Highest ratings Grand Final's do not actually involve the Storm

Highest Rating Grand Finals TOP 3 (all 3 games over 4mill)

SOUTHS V CANTERBURY 2014
TIGERS V COWBOYS 2005
COWBOYS V BRONCOS 2015

STORM GF have rated alot higher when losing or being close.
2006
2009

While Storms Defence was good, it still creates a non contest.
Storm are lucky it was a wet pitch and very wet day.

as you could see from the game, Panthers play an attacking style of play.
which did not benefit them with the Slow Pitch conditions.

the referring was not good either, for both sides.
channel 9 Commentary team are a disaster.

channel 7 rip em to pieces.

and a Melbourne and Sydney team playing in the NRL GF would have added 200-300k, especially given Melbourne was in lockdown.

Yeah, it's a real worry for the NRL that both their metro and regional markets are providing such poor ratings. Those poor NRL fans in the country still dont know how to change their TV's from WIN to SC after nearly a decade :rofl:

I didn't know that.
But I think the bunker bloke fucked up.
You listen to his ruling and he corrects him self right at the point he's describing when he goes behind his team mate.
Then just runs with it.

The Big V has reaffirmed it's total dominance as the sporting capital.
The Melbourne Vixens, Richmond Tigers, Melbourne Storm.
And Can pronouncing it was the cherry.... Loved it

The Storm ratings in Victoria were 608k. In the Storms previous two Grand Final appearances they rated 551k and 664k in Victoria. So no real bost there, nothing like the AFL benefited.

And yes it was a bit of a concern. But Penrith are the worst rating side in Sydney side, And our ratings were up almost 15% so there not a great deal of concern.

And with 3 Origin games coming up over the few weeks....WOW! just WOW
Rugby League, the dominant force in Australian sport! :cheers:

and what does the nrl fg rate in Melb without the storm? Maybe there was no real boost in ratings because even storm fans are becoming indifferent to their success. I mean 9 GF appearances in 15 years is pretty messed up

NRL Grand Final ratings without Storm rate around the 350k - 400k

and yes, they benefit with a breed of crops direct from the sunny state.
they have had a golden 10 years.

all great teams come to an end.

There are great teams, then there's the Melbourne Storm.
In the 23 years of NRL history no other team comes close to them.
6 Grand final wins. Next best 3. With them making the GF another 4 times but not winning.
They've finished top of the ladder 7 times.
And made the semis 19 of the 23 years.

Making Victoria having the greatest Rugby league team in NRL history. With no sign of "coming to an end" imo.

The Big V reign supreme.

And I can't begin to tell you how much entertainment I get listening to the likes of Gus Gould trying to swallow that pill.

Trust me leagues know lol...

the only disappointing thing about it..

The majority of the team over the years has been made up full of Queenslanders with some Kiwi's.
it has nothing to do with the fabric or sporting city of Melbourne..

which is what is annoying.

the whole success of the team is the Owners, coaching and recruiting team.
