Fight Club - Football TV Ratings (AFL vs NRL)

[piesman2011]

Very, very ordinary numbers for the NRL today - that all I can say on that one.

The concept of ANZAC day footy is faily new for the NRL. Is that the first time its been on FTA TV? It will grow.

[piesman2011]

cant wait to see what excuse Raiderdave pulls up

When it is bad news he is always a no show.

[piesman2011]

Be a rating of 1.6 million at least for the Essendon/Collingwood match.

It's been around a while, but mainly shown on PTV . Last year they got just under 400k on PTV . this years match was very one sided though.

They've had it for years. The low ratings indicate people just weren't interested in the game and were more interested in the AFL.

Well, lets compare ANZAC day for both codes. Both had an afternoon game on FTA in heartland, and an evening game on PTV in an expansion market. Fair comparison?

AFL:
Total TV ratings: 940k FTA metro + 313k FTA regional + 386k PTV + 346k PTV = 1.985m


NRL:

Total TV ratings: 531k metro FTA + 354k regional FTA + 306 PTV = 1.191m

Yeah those matches happen. 300k is ok on PTV for 2 non heartland teams on PTV and the FTA ratings will only grow with the great product that is RL.

It's just one nRL game on tonight. In theory tonight should be another great comparison of both codes ratings.
Only downer is that the AFL game is on at 8.45pm in the eastern states against nRL prime time 7.45pm.
