But But But nothing, as I said biggest game of league for the year and still couldn't sell it out, AFL could sellout the GF 10 times over

It's all quite simple really. Melbs has done well in regards to city infrastructure for sporting events. It's a piece of piss to get to the AFL games in melbs ie only two stadiums in the centre of city.

Rl has a more local scene with smaller stadiums in smaller suburbs of a much more widespread city.

Thus it's harder to get to rl games.

The other factor, the AFL is a game that simply doesn't transfer well to the tv screen. It looks very messy and the experience is much better if you see it at the field its played on. Rl is perfectly suited to tv.

Hence smaller crowds but larger tv viewing audiences.

Quite simple really.
So is that why a ground that holds 23+ k can only get 8k less than half almost a 3rd of its very small ground capacity??? What a load of crap they had 23k when Melb played Eagles last year - has more to do with Sydney people only being interested if their side is successful - really it's a cultural issue. Sydney people are generally just sheep - that also accounts for TV ratings - they don't follow the team just watch RL. Doesn't translate into members or $!

I'm not talking about 15years ago Xman and whether or not the AFL has good tv ratings has nuttin to do with its relative quality for tv vis a vis nrl. It simply means the AFL has lots of support which is great for them. In re to AFL beating nrl on TV you have been notorious for leaving out the regionals and thus lying about all and sundry about the actual figures. Ur prob doing the same now, such is the ilk of ur character.

you made the claim based on a single post in one thread. Yet even accounting for the maximum expected regionals the AFL were way ahead last night. Good one dickhead

I noticed dumbo ignored your request for proof .

Lol get used to it .

& dumbo .
I opened a thread specifically about Ratings boxes & your theories about them .

Why have you avoided it .
You can discuss your theories in there ,instead of clogging up other threads with your bizarro claims .
