That one person watching 132.7 million games of rl does mean anything except there's some mighty stupid people running around.

In this case, because the seasons are of similar duration there is some validity in comparison however a simple weekend snap shot of attendances or ratings should be sufficient for any independant observer that the number one football code in Australia is Australian Football.

Australian Football comes first in the world for attendances per head of population.
That's what you call real watching.
Australian Football clearly is the best rated football in Australia but you keep insisting that there is some weight in your cumulative figures. Even forgetting that this assertion is incorrect , cumulative figures only show just that, the cumulative figures. They definitely don't show an entity is watched by more people they can only show the total amount of viewing which is only of interest to commercial people.
Baseball is the most watched sport in America because it has a ridiculously high number of season games but American Football easily has the most number of people watching it in it's short 16 game season.

Seemingly the test for insanity is continually repeating the same procedure and expecting a different result.
No matter how times he repeats his figures the truth is by measure Australian Football is by far the most dominant code in Australia.
Probably rl's number one problem is that rl doesn't work within this scenario.

But we'll stick with the truth.
If you go to the ABS, that's the Australian Bureau of statistics, you'd trust them as an independant organisation wouldn't you ?Well they show rl in quite a poor light. Lot's of interesting graphs and breakdowns. It'd be nice to paste a few of those.
According the ABS' last count, Australian Rules has the most players in Australia with a whopping 268,700 compared with rugby league's pathetic 91,200.

You'd be wrong to do so. The figures I provided are the totals of the ratings provided on this website.King-Eliagh wrote:I dont know exactly where you got those figures Topper?
