Would you expect with FTA coverage up on last season by a good margin and BVOD lifting

the **** has lost FTA viewers to STV no doubt , but whether its increased its total viewership its hard to say

The NRL has gained FTA viewers ... for no apparent reason other then it continues to grow every year in all coverages
so it has almost certainly gone up with STV too

Given the exodus to fox of AFL watchers to Fox this is quite significant.

[WookieReturns]

[Fred]

So add that and Fox - those Thursday figures are quite good.

[leeroy*NRL*]

How good is that 16% increase when the Saturday Games have become exclusives

for me them numbers do not look that good.

Example

You have lost FTA on Saturdays, and FOX gains exclusivity but the number is only 16% overall

[Beaussie]

Wow, Seven’s AFL was number one nationwide and the best result for the season. Another massive win again for the AFL over the NRL too.

That reach number for the AFL compared to the NRL is phenomenal.

Good point Leeroy. You would think that with no FTA on Saturdays Fox should improve much much more than 16%. That number isn't going to cover the FTA ratings lost. This is going to effect overall ratings. Not a good sign for the fumbling game.
