X man so what if it is the most popular format of our game?
the reason it is, is the history and its state v state
players from all clubs, combining into one team.

there a reasons it outrates NRL games, it is 3 times a year. and it a higher level.
and it is usually is a great game.

so of course it would out rate a normal NRL game.

We are sorry to here X MAN that your biggest games of the year
are your Friday night games..( IT IS ALL YOU HAVE)

our International games still rate well..
how do your international games rate ?

oh that's right, your biggest games in your calendar are your Friday night games

our National comp is outrating your National comp (what does that make your comp look like)

Our biggest games are all through the year. Whether it's the weekly packed houses at Adelaide oval or Subiaco, or blockbusters at the MCG, the party lasts all year. Give me that over a SOO series with poor national comp any day. AFL fans and players voted with their feet and prioritised a national comp over SOO. Thank god for that

what and the NRL only have the 4 Blockbusters a year..

NRL has plenty of good games throughout the year.
from Sydney to Brisbane from Melbourne to Canberra to NZ to Newcastle.

the NRL may not have a 33k avg but we do have a 16k avg which excludes REP games.
also we play on rectangle fields, and in the suburbs where a crowd of 15k
seems massive because the field is half the size of an AFL ground from length and width combined.

THE SOO concept is a great concept (it only needs to be standalone and have its separate window
the same as the Australia games.

Gosh all mighty if the NRL to do this, it would only add to the H&A season in general ..
The day this happens (the better it will be)

the AFL schedule the home state games each week, upping the figure.

the AFL could easily change the scheduling to make all games not overlap.

but they do not.. because this way is working best for them.

the Crows Figure last night was double the norm of avg Friday night game..

but still has less games. The AFL have 27 hours of football over the weekend. There's no way they could realistically schedule all that without overlap. Thats unless they scheduled games in the morning or later Sunday. Theres no way that would fly

Brisbane rate mid 250k's for Broncos and sometimes less than 100k for non-broncos games.

your right 24 million extra per year over the NRL

all this, with same amount of games,
NRL no teams in SA AND WA
4 quarters of football, 70% more advertising, 2 extra teams in the league,
more hours of footage, massive amount more,

Your deal if you take out stat by stat, is not really better at all than the NRL DEAL

Mid 250k to non Sydney teams at prime time anything between 120k to 160k on AVG

I know that Brisbane are like this,
I am stating why the AFL schedule two games at once

who is gonna watchen the lions v demons on FTA (not many)
so it it live into qld on fox everywhere else.
and the other game
is a team from Melbourne v SA / WA team..
and also on fox

works out great for you.

games could be scheduled
Thursday 8pm
Friday 8pm
Saturday:12pm 3pm 6:pm 9pm (perth games)
Sunday 12pm 3pm 6pm

who's to say you cannot schedule the odd game together.
the AFL have 9 games around.

you pay the price for 4 quarters and longer broadcast times.
so many stoppages and breaks.
it can be done.
