Fox Sports dumps free to air NRL Las Vegas coverage

[Beaussie]

Based on the awfully low tv ratings on Fox Sports free to air last season, this year the only way for potential US audiences to watch will be on pay tv Fox Sports 1 & 2 channels.



Apparently ticket sales well down on last season too.

yeah - I think such things have a natural life. But so far it has been an amazing success you would have to agree.

i do not find it bad that NRL has been relegated to FOX SPORTS 1 in the USA

they will privatize there local sports like the NBA for example over RL
just like we would in Australia

Last year was a one off which got almost 500k on FTA excluding streaming
with a NBA match on at the same time rating 1.2mill

in my books that is a good result.

now with it being on FS1 it will rate lower but will still be shown in PRIME TIME>

I agree the NRL official crowd figures are misleading and dishonest.
Time for the NRL to withdraw from the Vegas experiment it's getting a little tiresome.

I'm sure Peter The Great will be shaking in his boots after this proclamation Bugbear. Personally I'll wait till after the games having assessed the crowd number and TV ratings before writing the event off. I dunno............just seems to be the sensible thing to do pal.

I'll get back to ya Bugbear. Hopefully you won't have egg dripping off ya odious mug. Somehow I doubt it.

Love when punters keep calling LAS VEGAS a FAIL>>

ITS AN INSTANT HIT

SPONSORS falling over themselves
RATINGS are HUGE in Australia
CROWDS of mid 45k Is very respectable
MEDIA hype it gets in NSW AND QLD is off the charts
