Fight Club - Football TV Ratings (AFL vs NRL)

[Beaussie]

Exactly, at least ours was killed (Optus) so Rupert could gain his monopoly across Australia with Fox sports

You lot whored yourselves out and gave full ownership of your game to Rupert and still got no dedicated channel. Pathetic wouldn't you agree?

Rupert's only ever owned half peanut
soon to be none

we don't need a dedicated Channel to kick the living bejesus out of the AFL on pay TV ... do we ?

[ParraEelsNRL]

Whored out? (North Melbourne, now that's whored out)

Nice bit a revised history from a known bullshyte artist.

It was a hostile takeover.

[Topper]

Exactly, at least ours was killed (Optus) so Rupert could gain his monopoly across Australia with Fox sports, the dedicated AFL channel failed miserably

The dedicated AFL channel wasn't maintained because Foxtel lost the rights to 7 and 10 in the last deal. They got some games back as an on sell but that wasn't enough to bring the channel back. Now that they have the rights back, lo and behold the channel returns.

RL has NEVER had a dedicated channel. Fox Sports is not a dedicated channel and never has been. It has always shown all sports.

[ParraEelsNRL]

RL had a dedicated channel on Optus you ******.

[Beaussie]

RL had a dedicated channel on Optus you ******.

Stop lying. Only the AFL had a dedicated football channel on not only Optus but also Foxtel. TV networks clearly dont see much value in Rugby League when they are all fighting for a piece of the massive AFL pie.

AFL's channel flopped
like this new one will too .... followed by the code itself shortly after

[Topper]

It did not flop. It was forced off the air by the previous TV deal that left Foxtel out. How many times does that fact have to be repeated for you to understand?

[ParraEelsNRL]

Rugby League with 4 games rating over 3 million each year while fumbleball has 1.

lol.

[ParraEelsNRL]

Optus vision, remember that bearsey, it was around when you were a Penrith (or was it a parra) fan.

LOL.

[Topper]

AFL has a higher total than RL. Remember that.

[ParraEelsNRL]

No they didn't they were millions behind lol.

[Topper]

In total AFL was in front. Stop lying.

[ParraEelsNRL]

RL was in front by around 15 million dopey.

[Topper]

I said stop lying.
