Half our fan base lives miles away from the cities in the bush hence why regional ratings are so high, never mind, tried telling a vfl zealot this a decade ago, still hasn't sunk in and the lies continue to flow forth.

I'm sure if they can find the courage to take a peek over the parapet they will see a whole new world out there that doesn't include maniacal devotion to RabbleFL. You can break free.......courage people .....courage!!! The great burghers of Sydney have shown you the way.

your regional ratings arent equal to your metros so your claim is wrong. Sydney teams would have the majority of their followers in Sydney, not in the countryParraEelsNRL wrote:Half our fan base lives miles away from the cities in the bush hence why regional ratings are so high, never mind, tried telling a vfl zealot this a decade ago, still hasn't sunk in and the lies continue to flow forth.

1. If this is the case why does Perth also average over double the NRL crowds, and Adelaide almost 3 times? 
>
because perth and Adelaide don't have much else either lol
2. If NRL crowds are so low because there's so much more to do in Sydney than Melbourne, why do the swans also average double the NRLs crowds?>
Swans Average well because there is only 11 Games a Season.
3. If there's so much more to do in Sydney compared to Melbourne wouldnt this also translate to lower ratings in Sydney because people would be out enjoying these things rather than watching the NRL on TV? Or by 'so much more to do' do you pretty much mean watching TV
People are out enjoying them selfs..
look at Sydney's traffic on Saturday and sundays..
it is worst than peak hour

So you go along with this "nothing else to do" BS? 
Perth has outstanding weather all year round and great water sport options2. all the NRL teams in Sydney have 12 home games
3. So what youre saying is people prefer to do other things than go to watch the NRL. No argument there
4. Amazing how NRL fans are the first to make excuses about poor weather yet claim Melbourne's crowds are larger because the poor weather means people only want to go to the footy. Funny how the same excuses dont work for the storm and swans

1 Adelaide is a crap hole & avoid that place at all costs, Perth is by far the best city in Australia with the best weather all year around! so much to do, great night life!
2 lol like what on a cold winters day that you cant do in Melbourne? the night life in Melbourne is far better than Sydney the winter in Melbourne is far more brutal the whole situation should be the other way around! the swans gets good crowds but the NRLOL cant, Sydney is full of ignorant numptys
3 BS, league should be a better game live, smaller field & closer to the Action!
peak hor in Sydney! catch the train
the road net work & design of the city sums up the whole place and mentality of Sydney Re: AFL's crowds more than double the NRL's because Melbourne is bleak

Melbourne are a city starved of entertainment! a very bleak city with nothing to do but attend football matches . Whether it be Cricket , Soccer , AFL or Rugby League they'll be there. The supposed heartland of The AFL cult, and a Soccer match draws the largest crowd. The only AFL game that could draw a bigger crowd than a Rugby League match was the AFL Grand Final. A presentation is Melbourne biggest sporting moment, and the naming of the pretend Australian team and the awarding of the Dufus medal aren't far behind that.

The argument is almost pointless as the swans consistly get good crowds

I think your 3rd point is most prob the most valid - I would say public transport in Melb really is the greatest advantage in going to games - stops just 100 - 200 m from MCG and Edihad.
