I came up with that because that was the number of telvised FTA matches shown into the Brisbane market by the AFL.Phelpsy wrote:what are those number of matches .. 4 for Brisbane etc ... How did you come to that just wondering.

I do know RL was televised before your lot and that same year, each channel covered the Grand Final.cos789 wrote:Parafeelup doesn't even know when television was invented, no wonder you have so much trouble.
Pay Tv and FTA TV are 2 separate things and need to be treated separately. One goes to all viewers while one is limited to 30% viewers. Like I have said before its like adding a batsman's one day runs and his test match runs ,and claiming that you can work out his batting average this way.Phelpsy wrote:If you want to know the average of the people watching AFL on TV you add up all the people watching on TV. Then you divide this by how many games there were. So if 100000 were watching on TV, say 70000 on 7, 20000 on 7 mate, and 10000 on fox, you would divide that by number of games. Let's say there were 4 games. That gives us an average of 25000 people watching per game .... On average. Hope that makes it clearer.
That's crazy talk pussy. It's not like you can watch a commercial network channel and pay TV and get counted as two seperate people. Most who have fox sports watch it on fox because there are no adds. But if it wasn't on fox and was only on FTA they would be watching it on FTA. AFL isn't getting a single extra viewer by simulcasting it. All anyone wants to know is how many people in Australia are watching a game on TV. If you care enough you will either be at the game or watching it on TV and either way you should be counted. Most of the RL fans are added up and counted, its a shame they can't do the same for the AR fans. I'm looking forward to the day when we only look at the national audience, rather then adding up all the bits and pieces and finding that there are still bits missing.pussycat wrote:Pay Tv and FTA TV are 2 separate things and need to be treated separately.

I'm not saying anyone shouldn't be counted or anything like that. What I'm saying is that PTV and FTA Tv are 2 different things and they need to be treated that way. FTA's audience are unlimited (or limited only by Australia's total population) and can't be treated the same as something that has a maximum audience of 30% or so. Apples aren't oranges. One day cricket isn't test cricket. You cant add the both sets of runs together for both and get the batsman's average. He has a one day average and a test match average but not one that combines both. Just like FTA and PTV are different things.piesman2011 wrote:That's crazy talk pussy.

In one way AFL wins every Friday night when you compare the two sports game vs game. Maybe we should be taking away your Qld viewers for Friday night and puting them as a different games ratings because they are watching a completely different game to your NSW viewers. Its much more logical then taking away AFLs PTV viewers who are watching the same game at the same time as the FTA viewers.
