are you serious ? >



that's not RL's ratings for 2012 & 2011
they're the NRL's

add our rep games ( up to 18 million more with them all included ) .... & we win handsomely in both years

as for that article from last year ............



it doesn't give any totals at all
just VFL pro tripe stating the NRL's ratings were down a bit & the VFL's ... up a tad
but would it cover the gap ?
hardly


Rugby League
our nations most watched sport
its ... just a fact

raider, theres literally no data that supports your assertion that the ratings dont include origin and rep footy. ive looked for the data to support your argument and it just cant be found. So until you supply some, no its not fact. its your belief.

you've looked eh
couldn't find anything eh

I'd suggest you take off your rose coloured fumbler glasses &

look harder next time

RUGBY league's new Independent Commission will demand a full-season schedule from its new television rights partner in 2013 after yesterday's chief executives conference revealed rugby league as the highest ratings sport on Australian TV, outweighing the AFL by 12 million viewers this year.

In the first annual chairmen and chief executives conference involving the incoming commissioners, plus representatives from all major state and national leagues, the 2011 season review revealed rugby league had a cumulative audience of 134 million viewers, without including a further 12 million in New Zealand.

The NRL also won the battle against the AFL on highest average ratings, taking out the top rankings on free-to-air and pay television, while audiences grew on both mediums by 1.3 per cent and 16 per cent respectively.

The results impressed the soon-to-be-commissioners, all of whom agreed with the clubs that the new TV rights deal needed to reflect rugby league's television audience dominance.

"They are a powerful set of results across the coverage of the game," NRL chief executive David Gallop said. "As we look towards media negotiations in the months ahead they are a reminder of rugby league's value in the market."

Commission chairman John Grant was just as buoyant and was confident that once the new body was in place television rights would be the first matter on the agenda to develop the game.

"It is important that as we look towards a significant growth in revenue that there is a strategy that underpins the way that money is used,'' he said.

The meeting involved lengthy discussion of TV rights negotiations, reiterating that they would start after the commission officially took control.

The commission and the clubs would strongly pursue the concept of a ''full-season'' schedule with days and time slots determined at the start of the year, unlike the rolling schedule that exists at present.

now that's 2011
I have information on 2010
&
2012

do you still seriously think that figure of 113.9 Million for 2013 is inclusive of all Rugby League watched in this nation that year
this is a credibility test for you
you rarely fail these which is why you are respected
so
how about it Wookie ?

when im wrong im wrong. I dont argue with the data. I would like to see 2012 though if you have it since Im apparently incompetent at searching

if we're satisfied the figure of 113.524 Million was the figure for the NRL in 2012 ( which we are )
we can add the TV ratings from the rep games for that year from the state of the game report attached here
http://www.nrl.com/portals/nrl/RadEdito ... e_2012.pdf
page 7
Origin
11.89 Million
Anzac Test
1.6 Million
All stars
1.3 Million

that's about 15 Million for those 5 games & we're up to 128.5 Million ish
plus City - Country
about another 800K


no 4 nations in 2012 ( which there was in 2011)
& we're at the mid 129 millions & if there'd of been a 4 nations ........ over 130 Million

at this stage
Rugby League cannot be caught for overall TV veiwers

It doesn't win every week. But how pathetic must your game be when the highest rating matches in Melbourne & Perth are Rugby League. And then we have to listen to your dribble about how well your game rates

What are you talking about? the round hasn't ended yet. And considering there is a fremantle game today. That will make the AFL the top rated sport in western australia.
