Re: AFL taking DERP to a new level
I think if they could get a team of players who would qualify for Victoria under the rules for SoO - that would help - like it was a real Vic team - but that's a long way off.

in the meantime , we will have to settle for 92K crowds at the MCG & 400K TV ratings in Melbourne for the present version

Re: AFL taking DERP to a new level
You are aware that the VFL had state of origin before the NSWRl? It lost favour with the clubs because their priority was the normal season…I used to like watching them.leeroy*NRL* wrote: Thu Apr 03, 2025 2:10 pmBaseball or NFL ??Fred wrote: Wed Apr 02, 2025 6:53 pmSoO is indeed a popular thing in Victoria as it is a marquee thing.

Rugby League could be extremly Popular in Perth and Melbourne.
And State OF Origin would still be Very Popular.
it would actually probably be more popular, as teams situated in those states get more involved.
with players in there team (Perth for example) played for NSW and QLD
this happened with the Storm being in the NRL. With players playing for Melbourne Storm that played for the MAROONS>
Now we see 400k Plus from Melbourne tuning into a game NSW v QLD (this figure does not include Regional Victoria or BVOD
When the arl can fields a Victorian state of origin that would be good.
I thought it would be good to have Storm go up against nsw and/or qld - with Storm getting to keep all their qls born players. Would be interesting. That would draw a lot of interest in Victoria.
they have not even played in Melbourne yet ??and of course NFL is going to be BIG its the first NFL for points ever...
its gurantted to sell out... and its not because of Melbourne any CIty in Australia would of sold out.
State of ORIGIN gets 3 games poer year good ratings..
See state of origin will never become a Victorian thing in Rugby League even if they had 100 players..
You have to grow up with State of Origin to understand (it stays with NSW v QLD)
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.
Rugby league, Australias most popular game in some of North Eastern Australia.

this stinking filthy fumbler lie ? ( like about 100 they trot out regularly )








Rugby League invented the concept at the end of the 2nd world war
servicemen from NSW & QLD played the 1st series in PNG while waiting to be sent back home & came up wth the idea that men would represent their state of origin
not where they enlisted
https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/austra ... 5jnut.html
https://crslsb.org.au/first-state-of-or ... ostscript/
no doubt a fumbler , maybe a servicemen from vicdumboh or a relative was aware of this & did what fumblers do best
stole the idea







one day captain
you'll get something right

Now we see 400k Plus from Melbourne tuning into a game NSW v QLD (this figure does not include Regional Victoria or BVOD
Just curious, where does this 400k in Melbourne alone figure come from?
Seems massively exaggerated?

Perhaps Wookie can confirm? I’ve always thought BVOD is included in the totals reported from VOZ for metros and national.
