A lot of fanciful high hopes have been expressed about womans RL but last night we were served with a strong contender for sporting flop of the year. Axe woman's RL now !, these tossers need to cut their losses, bury the shame and get over your failure. An embarrassing disastrous turnout of only 6824 fans witnessed a play fight totally devoid of any skill. As this slow cumbersome error fest. continued (I refuse to call this fiasco a game) many of the crowd went missing, the long kiosk que providing escape from the pain and suffering
This haphazard curiosity generated a lot of new event goodwill that has now been trashed, fans will snub it next year ( and defect to aflw ) , expect a cliff dive in TV ratings next year.
Aflw tv ratings picked up after a slow start and so the season average was a respectable figure. Womans RL could never sustain a season long interest for tv viewers. its a one game thing.
The idiocy continues. The intelligent folk here just laugh at this lunacy. Good luck my friend and Gods speed. Also: maybe a good idea to check with ya pharmacist......the dosage maybe wrong!!!!!

Oh dear .
It's not the best rating sport on tv .
Not even close .
on just about every direct comparison it sure is, by quite some margin
Don't forget the AFL is the most watched comp in the land.
More the 6,000,000 people watched and attended the AFL than their next closest rival, the NRlilL last year.
Picture this,
So far behind are the NRlilL that,
If you layed all those people out they stretch from Melbourne to Jo'burg South Africa.

I know this only a forum,
but if you going to say facts that this code is this, this & this..
you need to provide evidence in doing so..
otherwise it is invalid and only your opinion.

The cultists just can't accept reality .

And Wookie added that the nrls own figures suggested that wasn't correct

both sides repeat the same arguments. Every Sunday I have to explain why some games rate about half a normal game, yet RL fans need it repeated again and again

Did the NRL get it right with 1st year of the women's comp..?
with 3 games and a final. 4 games in total.
for me it was too short and 2 fewer teams.

I also do not agree this should be the game before the Grand Final..
NSW Cup v QLD Cup championship game should rein supreme

More teams would have been preferable. However I believe the leading women players involved and & the coaches/developement officers warned against going too big too soon as the player standard and depth wasn't good enough yet.
As it is the games have been of a good standard and the ratings are tracking well. No doubt they will expand in the coming years & will have a product that is a high standard and respected by the sporting public.

What's the standard like? The AFLW is shocking.
There's been a lot of "they should be getting better pay, why aren't more people watching and getting around it."
It's hard to suddenly embrace something with an under 12's standard "just because we should".

Standard is pretty good .
There's been Women's test matches played for ages between Aust & NZ .
So there's plenty of players who have played at high levels & have all the skills .
