I've been to dozens and am therefore the man to listen to here :)
Beaussie disagrees and he has probabaly been to hundreds. What does that mean?
Beaussie either sits with the cheer squad or within a small section of long time fans. I've heard these sorts of calls in the latter mentioned members section nearby where beaussie sits. Two yokels yelling out comon ref and not understanding the finer points of the game at all in their ridiculous banter. Then another time whilst in the members a boy next to me was taking photos of his asleep father next to him. And then there's the hoards of fans up in the members section at the scg watching themselves sipping chardonnay whilst the game is in the balance during the fourth quarter. Its quite disturbing really but it really reflects sydneys haphazard, pretentious attitude...you dont see this in league fans though :)
So one time you saw 2 guys yelling come on ref
Another time you saw one guy asleep
Another time you saw or heard about (not really sure which because there is no reference to it) some guys drinking in the members when the game was on.

So in your dozens of games you have been to you have seen one sleep. two rugby/soccer fans (getting excited about a game of AFL) and (possibly) guys drinking at the SCG thats 3 people (maybe a few more) out of probabaly hundereds of thousands of people. That sounds statistically significant lets pull both the Sydney teams out before they notice the 5 guys wearing Rooster gurnseys from about 5 years ago, when the finally review the 2007 round 14 DVD.

No piesman that's not all im going off. I'm also going off the relatively little publicity the code gets here, unless the swans win the title. I'm also going off my experiences of more than a decade of living in sydney. I'm also going off friends who call themselves swans fans...but dont know the players. I'm also going off the number of swans fans who are actually melbournites/ex south melbourne fans and the number of bandwagoners and 'odd game here and there' the swans collect year in year out. Yes there's a small bunch of loyal supporters but I'm telling you, all indicators suggest this bunch is small and the rest of the sydneysiders present at the games know little about the game. I wish it were different but that seems to be how it goes.

I'm not saying its the most popular you silly doofus. But its popular all the same. How many SOO viewers in melb? Just in the city? Think i worked it out to be about 1 in 5 households, sitting back loving their RL. 1 in 5 households stewie me boy, you got anything more popular than that? Perhaps the AFL GF but not much more I'd say :wink:

Why just comment on Melb? You said all states and territories bar Tasmania! :lol:

Anyway, Melbourne's ratings for a few rl games doesn't reflect on the sports overall popularity. Regular nRL games rate worst than dog shit still over there.

Maybe a couple of million in NSW and QLD at best, but to see reality you need to venture outside of those two states to see what the rest of us thing of the dumbed down version of real rugby. Every now and then Adelaide's nRL ratings will be so low that they actually don't register a figure. I think for that to happen, there needs to be less than 500 people watching as anything above 500 is rounded up to the nearest thousand, in this case 1,000.

Grand Final and a few finals all rating in the hundreds of thousands. If 7 had put the Sydney v Collingwood prelim on 7 that would have rated well over 300,000. They made a mistake however, as that prelim ended up out rating their program on Channel 7 at 8.30. Sydney-centric dumb fucks :lol:

Their prelim got about 150k on 7mate ffs. If the prelim was promoted properly on 7 in Sydney and shown on their main channel, 300k would have been very possible. Only 600k watched the nRL on 9? lmao! Melbourne really does shit on Sydney for support of their favourite code over the Sydney's support for their more popular code.

Properly promoted?

Wtf, that's exactly why the Vfl is failing in the Northern states, Vfl never knows when to stop promoting their game, imagine the NRL getting 50x the promotion in Vic that what the vFL does, you merkins wouldn't put up with it, yet we here have to.

Thank Fuck the NRL got a $billion +, we might actually see some decent promotion of RL at long last.

Properly promoted the telecast on Channel 7 you moron. So ads on Channel 7 during their shows like the news etc promoting their telecast of the match.
