2018 - AFL / AFLW - Australian Football TV Ratings

[pussycat]

"New figures show that Seven’s prime time AFL telecasts across the first ten rounds of the season are averaging a mere 292,000 viewers in Melbourne. That is a huge drop from the 361,000 Melbourne viewers that watched the matches in the first ten rounds of 2017." .....footy industry

The bubble dwellers aren't just on this site., listen to some of the replies....

What Seven or NRL psyops won't tell you is that Commonwealth Game on main channel damaged their cash cow.

Let's also take into account free to air TV ratings have dropped 9% as a whole this year.

It's a well known fact that AFL types just cannot accept that RL beats them in the tv ratings regularly. Even when it's staring them in the face. Remember Chemical Ali telling everyone Saddam was winning the war when there were American tanks in the background lololololololololol. Yep......similar situation lololololol!!!!!!

A game is game! Ours just happen to be better than yours. That shouldn't be that difficult for anyone to comprehend.

And on a like for like comparison we rate more almost every time. That's not hard to comprehend

Really?

Every PTV game of yours shown without overlap and head to head is smashed . (with the exception of 1 or 2)

We've won more Friday nights this year then you (including 4 of the last 5) And it needs to be taken into account that this is the AFL's game of the round and that more than 20% of your teams aren't permitted to play in this timeslot.

Our Sunday tv game usually rates better than yours. Despite the fact that you combine games to increase ratings , ditto Saturday. which most weeks comes 2nd to our Thursday night.


And with Origin on the way

Friday's and public holidays are the only real comparison. On Saturday you fox games are exclusive while ours are on FTA. You only have 6 hours of NRL, we have 15-18 hours. So Saturday just doesnt compare on any measure

I highly doubt you've won more than us. Last year you lost 34-4.

you simply have no proof of this

So we are back to hrs
Jesus h fuck you're a repetitive bore .

AFL is getting smashed in game v game ratings ..so you try to twist it into your bizarro theories .
No one else supports this .no media .no AFL official ...no ratings company ..no one
Yet you blindly stumble along repeating the same crap .

[NlolRL]

Jesus h fuck you're a repetitive bore .

but you guys arent when you stick by your opinions? Fuck off

AFL is getting smashed in game v game ratings ..so you try to twist it into your bizarro theories .

Completely untrue. Despite our decrease in ratings we would still be ahead in direct game v game comparisons

No one else supports this .no media .no AFL official ...no ratings company ..no one
Yet you blindly stumble along repeating the same crap .

again, show me where a ratings company or network has compared cumulative figures for different programs like the NRL do. It isnt a hard request

The poor bugger doesn't want to talk facts!!!!!!! He wants everyone to just forget about it & move on lololololol!!!!!!

[AFLcrap1]

You replied with a Q.

you made you claim first, and it was clearly a lie

[AFLcrap1]

No I didnt
You're now lying to cover the fact you can't answer the question
Go reread the thread from page 5
That's where I ask .
It's where you couldn't answer .

It didn't seem to effect RL fans when the 2017 WC was on. The 9 secondary channel got massive numbers game after game. Even Mr TV commented on what a ratings winner those games were. And if Mr TV is praising Ch9 & RL you absolutely know for 100% sure your are killing it!!!1

Way to miss the point though. Its not that it was on a secondary channel, its that they normally arent, and programs rate better on the main channel. Not just sport.

Your point about missing the point missed the point!!!!!!! RL is shown on the main channels in the RL heartlands of Sydney,Brisbane & regionals. When many RLWC games were shown on the secondary channel, when they normally aren't, they still rated very very well.

And I would think that if ppl watched the Comm games rather than the AFL it points to some intrinsic problem in your game. To learn more about what that may be go to my beautifully articulated 'AFL - the ugly game' thread.
