Bigger in half of Australia. Well behind in NSW & QLD.

And 100% smaller than Rugby League when everything added up globally. AFL can't even get a team or crowd in NZ.

So the total crowds in 2 continents beat the AFL Grand Final that is only popular in the “smaller half” (great maths), that is something to brag about.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.
Rugby league, Australias most popular game in some of North Eastern Australia.

Last year was amazing - I’m still floating after that. But yes, the nature of the game is that these things can happen given the higher scoring that usually happens in AFL I guess.

I remember posts from. Long long time ago where AFL was bagged for being the same teams in finals or grand finals - I think KE - but he was just trolling of course - I sometimes think what knots he would turn himself into to try and explain the same grand finalist in 5 years. But he is gone now I guess (see my bi- line lol).
its a myth about the same NRL teams
the NRL has had 12 premiers this century

the drops & giggles .... 11

Yeah but when the AFL had a team dominating it was criticised on here for being lopsided - which was rubbish of course - I was just pointing out the hypocracy now nrl has a couple of teams dominating.

I'll introduce you to the point fwed ....
the derps & misses has a draft & we don't

thats alarming
the idea of a draft is to even out the talent & competitiveness in a comp , & here we are the drops & giggles with a draft , less competitive then the NRL that doesn't have one [-( [-( [-( [-( [-(

nope the Draft is Crap.

NRL has it the best way

Clubs Grades districts produce the talent and goes through the Grades through juniors to top level.
Each Club has its duty along with NRL funding etc.

That is what unique about Rugby League to AFL

Players can be born in Brisbane play for Brisbane Born In Penrith Play for Penrith and so on
along with other players born in certain areas.
its golden and great

Sure.

I mean the AFL had more people attend over the season than the NRL and Superleague combined. Like its not even close.

NRL - 4,114,869
SL --- 1,594,135

AFL - 8.286m

Those figures sum it up.
SL figures are pathetic
SL is so far behind the dominant soccer and RU leagues

NRL figures are also ordinary at best.
So far behind the dominant AFL

Two sports that are far from being the top competitions in their respective countries.
Fans need to accept this and move on.

while RL is followed by tens of millions outside of our sunny shores =D =D =D =D

Look you have to let it go Azif. AFL absolutely dominated the Rugby League on TV last year by a lot & of course they were thrashed in crowd attendances also. Just admit Rugby League is a second class sport in every country it is played in except for PNG.
