Fight Club - Football TV Ratings (AFL vs NRL)

[Fred]

So you are faced with the AFL smashing nrl on ratings again this year and then you want to add in marquee matches that have nothing whatsoever to do with the nrl premiership competition ..... How desperate !!! Why not add in the qld rugby leauge comp shown in qld ??? Seriously , if you are going to add in all rl shown on Australian television then why not add in the state based comps shown on tv too??? Because if you're adding in other games outside of the nrl premietship season them you should add this too. Of course that would be silly wouldnt it. Pussy indeed

[piesman2011]

There was talk by one poster of adding the Toyota cup comp.

No it doesn't ??? AFL kicks arse look at the figures. Comparing two competitions AFL and nrl ... Apples for apples ... AFL smash nrl. If AFL had SoO and tests then you may be able to throw those in but comparing one comp to the other ... There is no comparison ... The figures are there ... Compare the AFL season to the nrl season .... AFL smashes it . Even if you do want to throw NZ into it (how desperate) AFL still smashes nrl.

Phelpsy, your lot are like the poor little ugly kid , the one that sits in the corner at the local dance - The one no one wants to dance with. You have just one interest and you put all your time into that!

You do well in your only area for 1 reason and 1 reason only. -

9 delay the nRL to maximize ratings.

You can keep trying finding reasons for this and that and whatever ... Fact is the AFL premiership season compared to the nrl seadon smashed nrl. Smashes!! You can spin and spin and spin but the figures are there.

The live game of a Friday night gets over 1M , the delayed game less than half. I think you mean to maximise advertising opportunities.

[pussycat]

Isn't rl on fox also ? Aren't we talking about total ratings ?

Same thing . you can claim a shell of a victory with 9 games to 5. But head to head - apples with apples its not even close - thats even with the way AFL matches are now coded on Fox.

Who's trying?

[Fred]

Man AFL shits all over nrl in ratings ... Simple as that... Figures are there. You can keep spinning it however you want by claiming whatever you want ..regionals, ftA, live... Whatever... But both games ate showing there matches on tv. Nrl sold their sole to nine so nine could maximize ratings and still can't beat the AFL ???? That why AFL gets more for their product in Australia simple as that.

[pussycat]

As I've told Xman, the silver medal is not such a bad thing. Show some pride in your achievement. You not only beat home the A-League but rugby union as well.

his eyes are decorations only

[Fred]

Look at the figures Dave ? You can divert and slander all you like but the figures speak for themselves . 6 million more viewers do far. AFL premiership season kicks nrl premiership seasons arse!!! And this with nine dictating to the nrl to maximize ratings. Broncos nearly every Friday night for instance. The facts are there and the fact people are trying to scroung up numbers from SoO, test matches, and all star games of all things shows how desperate they are. You can but buy but all you like by bringing these things up to use your vernacular and get personal and divert , but figures are there AFL 6 million more.
