It feels good knowing the AFL Grand Final is the highest Rated Show of the Year, beating out all 3 state of origins. in metro

Seeing as our code is more popular than your code in metro, only proves that AFL fans are classy sophisticated city workers while leaguetards are nothing more than wheat eating hillbillies

So Wookie, on home and away games who got the highest average ratings per game? Seriously curious

He asked for home and away, I gave home and away. I havent given excuses at all fucktard;. The averages are what they are.

And youve got the same shit doube standards as always. Delayed coverage - not our fault. One not shown until after 10 - again, not our fault. If you want Origin, then you have to accept the delayed coverage as part and parcel of it, just as we have to accept that our games suffer from the guarenteed local provision of matches on local television in all states outside victoria.

Many :nationally broadcast matches from Victoria, NSW and QLD arent shown into SA and WA due to their local coverage. Lets see how your averages would go if you took out broncos, cowboys, titans and storm matches from the national network broadcast - showing each separately and only into their local areas.

So we have what we have. NRL averages greater on Fox and on FTA individually, but over all matches in a round, coming second.

Yes, the NRL average larger on FTA AND on FOX, but combined they dont. This is where this is going to be pointless and we start with the "two mediums" bullshit that has emerged this season.

AFL games are broadcast simultaneously and can legitimately be combined when counting metro and regional - people on on one ratings box arent watching both pay and fta. NRL games are broadcast exclusive of FTA and Fox. Its the way the deals are structured.

While i have averages based on published data - AFL 473k ave (198 games) to NRL 442k Ave (192 games) - theres some data missing from both sides of that equation, in the millions for both sides.

Like it or not as well, the NRL deal encompasses the NSW Cup/Holden Cup/Schoolboys as well as Origin, Anzac Test, Four Nationals, City v Country, the Dally M and the preseason. The AFL deal on the other hand encompasses the Foxtel Cup, Under 18/under 16 championships, preseason, Brownlow medal, and International Rules. The VFL while a body of the AFL is not included in the main broadcast negotiations at this time.
