Fight Club - Football TV Ratings (AFL vs NRL)

[Xman]

games of football .... d head
include them only

our 2011 figure was 129 Million
SOO increased by 1.5 Million on last year

we win ..... AGAIN

when will you lot ever ... catch us

According to who?

We try to compare the leagues of NRL and AFL but when you lose you claim all other forms of RL should also be included.

Well the figures exclude the AFLs preseason cup and the numerous AFL game replays on foxtel. Arent they games?

This then becomes a "our sport v your sport" comparison. Therefore we should be allowed to include the brownlow and the many many sports shows dedicated to AFL.

So, either league v league or everything v everything.

Which one? We win both!

when ever theres been an article about ratings victories between the codes .. the article always refers to Rugby League as winning
not the NRL

its just ... same ol.. same ol

RL ... King

yeah, and the articles come from RL circles, not independent.

Amazing how todays independent report says different.

AFL ahead in everything =D>

it doesn't ... it says the VFL increased its veiwership by 10 mill
the NRL by about .350K
but
RL......... had a 16 Million lead in 2011

do the math

[Raiderdave]

However, it is another test considered more accurate - which counts a viewer only once throughout the season - that shows the gap between AFL and NRL might not be as big as first thought: the gap between the two codes was only 128,000 viewers in favour of the AFL.
This is from the same article. Perhaps you got the 129 million number from this other test.

nuh
straight ratings
& we win
thats 4 years in a row ,& quite comfortably too ... I thought it was going to be close
I mean
you guys even had 11 more games this year

but no cigar

hmmmm
if foxtel & 11 extra games .... couldn't get yuz there
what will ?

Dave, you keep saying 'we win', but you've yet to provide a single source that clearly says nRL (or Rugby League) beat the AFL in 2012. The AFL haven't trumpeted anything yet because they wait 'till the release of their annual report next year. Unlike the nRL who released their state of the game report BEFORE THEIR FINALS SERIES HAD EVEN BEGUN, knowing full well that they'd get smashed in the ratings during September.

In its first year of decent fox coverage and all games live against the gate, AFL pay ratings increased 101%. That's an obviously unsustainable level of growth, but you would still expect the ratings to continue to grow over the next 4 years. By the time the new broadcast rights are being negotiated the AFL could very well be the biggest jewel in Fox Sports' crown.

Look at the top 5 pay tv shows for 2012 Dave, I think you'll be surprised how many are AFL programs.

[ParraEelsNRL]

That's Rugby League.

ah
the NRL attracted 113.9 Million veiwers in 2012.... did it not ?
the NRL attracted 17 Million veiwers to its rep games on TV in 2012... did it not ?

the VFL attracted 123 Million veiwers in 2012.... did it not

who won ?

with 11 extra games
and with 206 of its 207 games simulcast on pay & FTA & with regional WA & TAS included

the VFL STILL couldn't get within cooee of Rugby League in this country

like I said
no wonder you could hear the cockroaches fart around VFL HQ

[ParraEelsNRL]

Another year another win for TGG.

[ParraEelsNRL]

Haha, more teams and more FTA games along with all games simulcast on Fox sports and they STILL couldn't win

[ParraEelsNRL]

That summer Vfl comp we were discussing the other day is sounding better and better all the time. It may end up saving the poor dears too, after all, every sport needs breathing room

[Xman]

Haha, more teams and more FTA games along with all games simulcast on Fox sports and they STILL couldn't win

hmmm, according to the independant article today the AFL won quite easily. =D> =D>

So as we constantly told you guys during the year, despite your regional advantage, the AFL was winning week in week out.

oh, ok then. :P

The figures exclude the AFL preseason cup. Total ratings for that were 5M. Therefore the AFL is only 1M behind. Add the Brownlow medal for 1.9M and the two Legends games for 1.2M.

Hmmmm then the AFL are 3M ahead. And this excludes the multiple foxfooty replays every day of the week, and all the other Fox footy, ch7,9 and 10 programs.

AFL wins again

[Stewie]

Provide a fucking source for once Raiderdave or stfu you butthurt twat. AFL wins by 10 million.
