The Nrl average was dragged down by one poory rating match. If you have PTV you watch it.

And while were making excuses, The Best NRL players were out for Origin.

So because the other code doesn't have a game on Fridays and Mondays, I will only compare Saturday and Sunday games. All of the AFL games on Saturday and Sunday are also televised to non-Victorian markets on FTA as well. Here are the average ratings:

Over the last 2 weeks the NRL has had 5 matches Saturday and Sunday on PTV averaging 260K
Over the last 2 weeks the AFL has had 8 matches Saturday and Sunday on PTV averaging 220K

The only difference was that every single game on PTV for AFL has also been televised to a local market on FTA.
I would say that there is next to no difference between these matches, due to the AFL having FTA to local markets. So in other words local markets would make up that 40K difference if these games were televised on PTV only to local markets. The AFL results included 3 games involving new clubs GC and GWS.
Well said. The other issue is the time each game is shown. A far higher proportion of the NRLs paytv games are in prime time (late Sat arvo, SN, MN from 5 games, compared to the AFLs 3 from 9 games) so that would bolster their average significantly in comparison.

The highest rating shows of the week are the news at 6pm. Doesn't your Saturday game often go from 5.30pm to 7.30pm? If that's not prime time nothing is! :roll:

No 6 O'Clock is not prime time, especially not on Saturdays. Just because everybody watches the news doent mean that its on in prime time.


Anyrate the compared matches were on at similar times.

Averages per game don't work because the NRLs games are shown in isolation and the AFLs concurrently. Games per time slot work which is similar to what the NRL claim on Friday nights. This would favour the AFL heavily.

What about last years Final series? these matches were shown at the same time. Regionals could be added 33/66%.
No overlaping excuses, though I bet XMan will find something to whinge about :wink:

Yeah, the AFL won almost every FTA 5 city ratings with no live coverage for almost half of the AFls heartland :roll:

I find it highly amusing that last year when the cumulative audience was higher for the NRL yet the average for the AFL was higher the NRL claimed it as a win.Now this year they are being pumped on cumulative numbers but they want to talk averages on PTV.However you want to put it more people will watch AFL on tele this year than NRL.End of story :lol: :lol: :lol:

Fri TV #NRL 733k (Syd 366k Mel 22k Bri 336k Ade 3k Per 6k) Late 342k (Syd 214k Bri 128k) 9 + GEM

Fri TV #AFL 736k (Syd 58k Mel 405k Bri 36k Ade 115k Per 121k) 7 + 7mate #aflswanscats

AFL in SYD/BRIS 94k. plus more on foxtel.
NRL in Mel/Adel/Perth 31k with none on Foxtel.

Also, these figures are grossly distorted by the Broncos! 336k for a city of 2mil (plus add .5m for GC) is crazy, but hardly surprising given the one team represents a city of 2 million people. :roll:

355k for coll v WC on Saturday afternoon.

This is the second highest rating for either code for a game played outside of prime time. The only higher rating game outside prime time was the NRLs Anzac day game, a day which both code recorded record TV figures.

Impressive what a stand alone payTV game of AFL will rated when it involves a blockbuster matchup. In prime time it could have nudged 400k.
