Wtf has the nsw cup got to do with anything?

who who cares
but speaking of the state comps of that shite sport, how did their GF's go
we didn't hear a thing about them in central QLD
only about how big the AFL ones were

Heard plenty enough the next week you idiot when they were shown live NATION wide on channel 9's GF coverage that started early in the morning and went through till 10:30pm, by the time the NSW cup champions played the QLD cup Champions in which the QLD side from Cairns won, there was well over 30,000 already in the stadium plus being on GF day and this being the first ever State championship to be shown and played, millions would have seen the coverage, millions more than watched any of your local Australia rules comps in their Grand finals and more than watched the S15 Grand Final and more than watched the A League Grand Final. The only Grand Final to out rate the game we are talking about was the AFL Grand Final the week before and we all know it was out rated later that night by the South Sydney vs Canterbury bankstown game in the NRL decider.

How you like them apples?

Just to smash bomber once again....according to him no one was interested & it was AFL interest ..

Queensland ratings figures for Intrust Super Cup rugby league finals games beating AFL on TV

(l-r) Easts coach Craig Ingebrigtsen, Easts captain Steve Thorpe, Pride captain Tyrone McCarthy and Pride coach Jason Demetriou ahead of Sunday’s Intrust Super Cup grand final.
SECOND tier rugby league games are out-rating AFL finals games in Queensland as the Intrust Super Cup attracts record audiences.

The Intrust Super Cup preliminary final on Channel 9 last Sunday smashed free-to-air coverage of the AFL’s two preliminary finals that weekend.

More than 120,000 people watched traditional Brisbane rivals Easts Tigers and Wynnum Manly battle last Sunday afternoon.

Stadium security stepped up amid terror fears

It was a clash between plumbers, electricians, accountants and bar tenders as part-time footballers ripped into each other in another chapter of a gloriously bitter Brisbane rivalry.

The league final doubled 7Mate’s prime time coverage of the Sydney Swans thumping of North Melbourne on Friday night, which attracted 62,991 viewers.

The AFL’s preliminary final on Saturday between Hawthorn and Port Adelaide drew 88,721 viewers on 7Mate.

The AFL games were also shown live on Foxtel, attracting more than 400,000 national viewers to each, but there are no Queensland-specific viewers numbers available for pay television.

Queensland Rugby League chairman Peter Betros wasted little time showing his pride in the strong ratings, noting them at the launch of the Intrust Super Cup grand final yesterday.

“The Intrust Super Cup out-rated the AFL’s preliminary finals… and those ratings show when it comes to AFL or league, Queenslanders will always choose league,” Betros said.

Easts’ 30-12 win over Wynnum Manly was the most-watched Intrust Super Cup game in a regional market, even out-rating last year’s grand final that featured Mackay.

The competition’s record could be broken this Sunday when Easts take on Northern Pride at Suncorp Stadium.

While the Intrust Super Cup’s television ratings are surging, the NRL’s viewers have dropped with a general decline in television audiences to blame.

Industry insiders believe about 40,000 fewer people are watching television each night this year as social media and smart phones tear people from one screen to another.

However, the AFL is winning the war on the Gold Coast with the Suns crowds higher than the Titans, who are now homeless after moving out of the Centre of Excellence due to high rent costs.

The Suns averaged 16,092 fans this year at home compared to the Titans’ 13,194.

The Brisbane Lions however are battling for attention both at the ground and on television with a home average of 19,743 fans compared to the Broncos’ 33,354 average in 2014.

Intrust Super Cup preliminary final Easts vs Wynnum Manly: 120,457 viewers across Queensland.

AFL preliminary final - Sydney v North Melbourne: 62,991 viewers across Queensland.

how many people actually bothered turning up?

[leagueiscrap]

ahahahah demolished.

demolished all the way........................
exactly the NRL always is!
go and read up on the rating system & how it works?
the explain why the AFL is decades ahead in, crowds, revenue, sponsorship, membership, participation rates & why the NRL has not expanded outside of NSW & QLD to the rest of the country

your minnow game is played in the biggest and third biggest advertising markets in Australia & still, is decades off the AFL!
it was given a helping hand from the packers & murdochs throwing hundreds of millions in publicity, yet your minnow game still trails the AFL

[AFLcrap1]

Nice rant stupid ,but that has nothing to do with the Crap you posted .
Deflecting once again when caught out posting bullshit.

& even after you made the same lies about NRL not expanding outside 2 states previously & were shown up as lying.
So once again

What state is the Melb Storm based in .
Where are the Canberra Raiders based.
& don't go on with shit about no one cares in Melb or ACT is part of NSW.

You just post lie after lie after lie.

Get a grip on your jealousy & post something that is remotely correct & then you won't be considered the village idiot.

what about the no interest in the intrust GF, well look at the crowd, no one bothered to turn up

the Raiders are in Canberra, which is in NSW the Raiders are one of the most irrlevant sporting clubs in Australia.

the Melbourne storm are the most irrlevant sporting clubs in Melbourne. Their home final game got out drawn by the VFL amateur comp GF
they have won several grand finals, been world champions, bank rolled by the NRL & News ltd who have pumped millions into the Storm, free press, free publicity money couldn't buy in the News Ltd media outlets. They play in the centre of Melbourne, in one of the best rectangular stadiums in the country, yet their crowds are pathetic

the NRL has expanded no where in Australia. only people who bother turning up to the Storm games are ex pats & Kiwis

keep posting your usual crap dazza spazza, calling it lies & trying to deflect, or what ever else you want. fact is fact

they'll bombard you with tv ratings in melbourne for the grand final, SOO etc

having 900,000 people in melbourne watch a RL game on tv is very nice and all

but how many of that figure are actively investing in the storm? these nuffies are throwing all their eggs into the tv basket and are forgetting the main income from football related operations for any club in any sport in this country are memberships....gap....merch+tickets...gap...everything else

if these people are prepared to watch the stuff on tv but refuse to spend money on tickets and memberships then there is something not right going on. other sports with lower tv share like soccer and rugby union have no problem translating viewers into active live fans of the clubs because the people that spend the money value watching the sport live at the stadiums while the AFL is ahead of everyone in this regard

if you have 900,000 casual followers of RL in a city of nearly 4.5m, but only have 1 RL club, barely any juniors coming through, and memberships peaking at 15k(same with attendances) then your sport has a loooooooooooooooooooooonnnng way to go

I am very jealous of AAMI, I am very jealous that Victoria, who traditionally wouldn't know what to do with a rectangular football field have by far the best rectangular field in the Country, the next is Suncorp. Sydney is a looooong way behind

How predictable.
You were caught out lying & went straight into deflection mode.

Your fucked up opinion is not counted as "Fact".

Does not matter who follows the Melb Storm ,the fact is they are a non Qld or NSW team.
& you stated that The NRL had NOT expanded outside those two states.
Your jealousy & obsession clouds any rational thought .

Melb is a city in Victoria .
The Storm are a NRL team .

So what you stated is laughable,
Yet you still write long winded posts to try to claim you are right.

& ACT might be geographically situated in Nsw but it is not a part of that state.
It is a separate territory.

I should get paid for trying to educate you.
You are dumber than most fumblers.


Try posting before you get on the metho .
See if it helps.
I doubt it ,but it's worth a shot.

lying and deflecting what spazza dazza

Canberra is a territory but is still located in NSW & the Raiders one of the most irrlevant so called professional sporting clubs in Australia
yes Melbourne has the Storm, who has been bankrolled by the NRL and News ltd for a decade now & has never turned a profit. league
won premierships & been world champions, but are next to the least supported side there.

You guys mock the the AFL in QLD & NSW, The Swans are the largest team in NSW based on members, crowds & club revenue and the Lions crowds & members are still on par with the most supported NSW based NRL clubs
yet try and convince us that the Storm is popular in Melbourne. Their numbers are among the lowest in Victoria,75k turn up to the AFL final game between two mid sized AFL teams, live against the gate! while the storm struggle to attract 20k for a game that isn't shown live their season crowds & memberships are shite
League is irrelevant in Victoria! just like it is in the rest of the country outside of NSW & QLD
followed by no one except a few expats

but but but ratings, you bumsniffers always refer back to
imaginary figures made up from those 5000 rating boxes ,
why is it no one ever turns up to games
why is it is membership levels are crap
why can't it generate excitement outside of SOO

the NRL cant even sell out a double header at the 4 nations FFS

the NRL's popularity is over inflated that is based on imaginary numbers

I will make it simple .
Have the NRL expanded outside Qld & NSW.?


Simple question ,just a yes or no answer will do .

& there is only One answer,&you won't say yes because that will show that you posted utter BS.


Doesn't matter if the Storm is privately omned or has 32 fans or won a GF or whatever else you are rambling about
We are discussing what part of AUST they are in .
& according to you Melb is in QLD. Or NSW ..can you point it out on the map please.

& ACT is a separate territory from Nsw .
Might be news to you but those not lobotomised have known that for yrs.

Please keep deflecting ..it is quite amusing.
