Ok lets compare the ratings.
You post the Fumblecup ratings & I will post the RLWC ratings..

the AFL never declares to be an international sport.
the ic is a bunch of amatuers playing for a cup.

yes league is more international but was only invented because of union & is only slightly popular that rides off the back of the success of the union.

SO you have nothing...as usual..

LOL.

& stop & have a think why this quote from you is so plainly ********.Ask yourself WHY.

Tallying up ratings now, but I can confirm that on REPORTED ratings the AFL smashed the NRL in their respective home and away seasons - the AFL has currently 93 million in reported ratings at the end of its season, with the NRL sitting on 80 million with a round to go.
That said, when rep fixtures are included, the NRL has a lead - 96 million to 93 million (which includes 4 million from NZ - for the AFL nutters this means an Australian broadcast win to the AFL purely on reported ratings 93-92 million)

Again I stress this is reported ratings only. It does not include 76 AFL matches shown in regional victoria (and which presently average 133), nor does it reflect missing ratings from a large number of matches shown in regional WA/Tasmania - We are also missing some match data for the NRL - about a dozen regionals, and some New Zealand stuff. Details to come.

so bumsniffers are you going to stat claiming the ratings system is crap 3000k metro boxes and 2000k regional boxes boxes that represents 23 million aussies

oh well not even the billionaires of packer and Murdoch and billions of government hands outs can make your game more popular than the AFL

But but but but you claimed that 1 ratings box= hundreds of thousands of viewers.

YOu are a bright one

The final rounds of the season, isn't this the time of the year the AFL should be recording its best ratings not its worst? A total lack of interest in a very boring game . Its the pomp and ceremony the people of Melbourne love - the game itself is long winded & boring as hell - pathetic , ie - SHIThouse ! bring on the grand final parade and the medal presentation

the one that out rates, out draws the NRL GF which struggles to sell out

People must be creaming themselves with the though of the medal presentation and than the selection of the pretend Australian Team - Wow.

What about "The Dwaft The DWaft".
That makes up for the All Victardian Sausage Rollers playing no one.
What an honour..
I made the team.
UM who do you play.
No one.

LOL
LOL..
What amazes me is why didn't they leave the Interfarcical cup till after the fumble season was over .
It would have been a ratings winner.A major event like that would attract the viewers.
IF
IF it was shown .
Sadly no interest means no tv station wanted to use it as a 3.AM filler between Infomercials ,& Religious scammers..

Nor have you included quiet a few million from the regular season club games that have'nt been reported. also Many NZ numbers not reported nor the 4 million plus we will get next week.

But take comfort from the fact that with all your extra matches, you did managed to accumulate more ratings than the NRL's club comp or something that takes up about 75% of the NRL's efforts.

I did mention that we were missing quite a bit of data from both sides.

Its worth noting that there are exactly 9 regional matches not featured in the data set at an average of 349 per game, so you can reasonably add 3,141 k to the NRl total, taking the NRl to estimated total of 83 million for its home and away season, still well short of the AFL home and away season total of 93 million which is still missing two thirds of its broadcast results in vic regionals (76 matches @ 150k ave), wa regionals (80 matches @ 43 ave) and Tasmania (69 matches @ 55 ave).

AFL regionals not in the reported data

Vic regionals (76 matches @ 150 ave) = 11,400k
WA regionals (80 matches @ 43 ave) = 3,440k
Tasmania (69 matches @ 55 ave) = 3,795k

So while the NRL is probably missing 3.1 million to take its H&A tally to 83 million and its total to 99 million, the AFL is missing as much as 18.6 million from its reported data, which would take it to 112 million in its Home and away season. Its therefore not unreasonable to believe, based on ratings data that the AFL have won in terms of sheer weight of numbers at this point, with finals for both codes still to play.

even with all the help of the billion airs of the packers and murdochs to get the game on tv is behind the AFL
even with all off the pokes laws and government hand outs the NRL is still decades behind the AFL

at the end of the day the AFL wins hands down. built up from the suburbs to be the dominate code in Australia . it has easily beat the shit game "rugby" that the British brought over a century ago. the game of league that rides off the success of its more popular brother union to simple retarrrded folk who love their league.

the game of rugby is dying, league/ union what ever you call it!, all the helping hand it has received, internationally, nationally, the government grants and different at levels/ government handouts, laws, pokes/gaming laws combined is still cannot match the AFL in Australia
at the end of the day the better product will succeed. keep pintching your self bumsniffers at what david smith says...!


if only the AFL or soccer had the helping had your little shitty game did! how far ahead would that codes be

Or much more realisticly you could say C9 pay the NRL to broadcast 71of there matches in there H/A season. Parra v Many is a match and regardless of how many localitys it is broadcast too it is still only one match. To date it has broadcast 68 matches at an average of 78k per match with a few million to be counted . ..As far as PTV goes - 211.5 avg. Showing the NRL rates better in the only two forms of TV coverage.

I have never said an average doesn't matter . There is nothing more important than the average when its for a real category like Pay TV or FTA, not some meaningless bogus average like you get when add two very different things together and try to average them out.

Aren't winning???????????????????? arn't winning what? FTA = 800k PTV = 211.5k. >


And I would be to embarrassed to tell people that you finished 10m in front over the regular season, I certainly wouldn't be bragging about it. 22 extra matches on FTA, 80 extra PTV matches and you could only manage 10m ratings more - Wow, how humiliating that must be for the AFL..

Stick to the topic Dumbo.
This is a ratings thread & you have claimed 2 different things about Ratings boxes.

Can you explain how (without one of your deflective rants) how the 5000 ratings boxes = 23 mill ,but also = 1 billion.

Dumbest fuck on here.

You're pathetically desperate! Splitting FTA and foxtel to suite your argument is laughable because the AFL show 4 games a week on both at the same time which splits their audience. Add to that most foxtel games are shown against another game on fox, lowering the average.

As for your "80 extra games" garbage, the NRL show far far more games in isolation to their entire audience than the AFL, and far more in prime time to maximise ratings. Add to that they have a flexible schedule and STiLL they got hammered!

Totals are the only fair way to gauge the winner with this sort of arrangement. Unfortunately for you it wasn't the NRL, and you're mighty pissed

I have never ever said that our regular season NRL matches ,which make up 75% of the NRL,will Out rate the AFL club competition in total ratings and thats because you 22 extra FTA , or rather 20 odd extra in Melb, , 20 odd extra matches in Adelaide, 20 odd extra in Perth, 2o extra in Sydney and 2o odd extra matches in Brisbane + another 80 more PTV matches . There not miracle workers. Easy winners, but not miracle workers.

The NRL didn't throw anything at the TV networks. As you said the networks payed roughly the same amount of money. And in the case of the NRL for a lot less product.

Of course you sepaqrate different thing! Pay TV goes to 30% of viewers and FTA goes to all viewers . They are too different things. You treat them separately, that shouldn't be that difficult a concept. And on PTV we rate better and on FTA we rate better - so learn to live with it. And the part about the NRL showing 3 matches a week isn't a difficult concept either,

80 matches is garbage, It is infact over 100 matches, The 80 figure is for PTV matches alone.

Totals = sheer weight of numberss 100 more . Averages the NRL wins on PTV and on FTA

The NRL shows 1 FTA game a week in Prime Time the AFL 2 - so, wrong again

Flexible schedule ???? The first20 rounds are picked in advance - and all teams are selected (even the bottom sides are eligibe).
