so your excuse is that ratings for games shown at the same time are not split and make no difference because everyone flicks between the channels?pussycat wrote:Being on FTA makes no difference whatsoever (your lame ass excuses are boring as hell) if you fork out for the Fox sport package then thats what you whatch.
Your other excuse is almost as lame. When matches are shown at the same time people flick over between adds. Matches people wouldn't normally watch. I also recall a 3 week period where games didn't overlap and the resuls wernt much different.
The second Saturday game regularly appears in that list, I would say it would be second in popularity only to the Monday game.
Quiet often you have a monday or thursday game (no overlap) Friday game (no overlap), usually one on Saturday that doesnt overap and often one Sunday too. Usually 3 (at least) - which is about what we have. So sing a new tune.
Now thats LAME.



The reason its relevant that AFL has fox and FTA telecasts at the same time is that its a big reason for people NOT to subscribe to foxtel since FTA coverage is all they need to watch 4 games every weekend. Hence the subscription rates in AFL states didnt rise significantly.
