Poor 'ol llllloller is arguing TV viewing is down overall - yes it is by 4% - but in the context of AFL V NRL it is meaningless. The NRL is holding firm against the trend while the AFL is massively ahead of it - 4% v 18%. You cannot put both codes in the same basket.

Facts say that the AFL is NOT the most watched .
You can repeat it all you want.
It doesn't change reality.
You're drifting further & further into some alternate fantasy world .

the ratings figures dont account for anything but an average of that program. On their own they would suggest a 5 minute program is more watched than a 5 hour program

The poor buggar is arguing against cold hard facts!!!!! Wookie has reported that AFL FTA is down OVER 20% & Fox down 13.9% - down about 18% overall. That is truly catastrophic!!!!! Meanwhile the NRL is up just short of 1% overall. Those numbers are stark, absolute oppostites!!!!! One in freefall and the other holding firm at worst.

Poor 'ol llllloller is arguing TV viewing is down overall - yes it is by 4% - but in the context of AFL V NRL it is meaningless. The NRL is holding firm against the trend while the AFL is massively ahead of it - 4% v 18%. You cannot put both codes in the same basket.

And then the poor dill goes on about kids streaming & watching netflix & movies etc. Yep probably the case. But it isn't effecting the NRL's numbers but most certainly seems to be with the AFL. Once again you cannot say all sports are effected because the NRL isn't.

The facts ma'am.....just the facts!!!!!

Other facts to be aware of

According to Roy
"The cumulative live audience for NRL games in Australia has been 43.0 million for the first 11 Rounds, compared to 43.3m last year. The AFL’s cumulative live audience is 36.9m for its first 9 rounds, compared to 42.9m last year."

* The NRL Season starts two weeks before the AFL season
* 3.9m watch the NRL per round according to Roy (I make it 3.98)
* 4.1m watch the AFL per round according to Roy ( I dont have an accurate figure)

I think you'll find the tv ratings for the Warriors were counted in Roys numbers. He specifically mentions they are up 2o odd percent from memory.

Sydney's ratings are laughable. Cooking is more engaging

Sydney ratings are still laughable compared to Melbourne, irrespective of the overall national ratings
