fair enough too. They might even get an average home crowd which is more than half the Swans!

The Swans get crowds but their tv ratings are dismal in Sydney. While GWS are going backwards and being destroyed by the Wanderers in Western Sydney.

Come back when AFL can actually get another nation to actually turn up and watch their game lol.

many of their tv ratings are around 100k in Sydney when you count FTA and Fox. That's around 1/3 to 1/4 the NRL on TV in Sydney. How is 1/4 of the heartland sport dismal?

If AFLs Sydney ratings were that good it would be shown on Ch 7 instead of the low rating fill in channel 7mate.

The Swans barely made the news when they made the grand final in Sydney. Was all about South Sydney. You AFL fans really have no idea how little most people care about Victorias game.

It is shown clearly with GWS going backwards with merchandise sales and sponsorship.

the fact they get 50-80k on a secondary digital channel (plus foxtel) while competing against the NRL is a good effort. Of course they are minor news, just like the storm down here

The difference is the Swans had a long 100 year history in Melbourne and have been around 15 years longer in Sydney the the Storm have in Melbourne. So that is a huge head start.

Melbourne started from scratch with no existing fans in another city like the Swans. They are doing well in an AFL mad city.

so much of a joke they double almost every Sydney NRL team for crowds

& cant outrate the teletubbies on tv

You seem to keep forgetting that
Ah well
You are a pig shit for brains know nothing vic.tar.d wanker

Wot else can we expect

weve covered that. 1/4 the ratings of the NRL which is perfectly reasonable. Double the NRL crowds which is outstanding. You got nothin

1/4

:_<>

The NRL in sydney attracts 2 million veiwers each n every week
Thats 30 times the swines pathetic 70k figure

We have 9 sides

You are comparing 1 game
& trying to say thats it

You are a tosser
A wanker

A bubble dwelling vic.ta.rd halfwit dribbler

Give up
Cos its you who has nuttin

so now youve moved onto cummulative ratings.

One single FN night, Swans v NRL, 80k v 360k

The maths is very simple

:_<>

We dont have 1 side you blithering wanker
We have 9

You continue to think theres only 1 game & 2 sides in sydney

If every NRL fan in Sydney watched ... 1 game
It would surpass 1 million

Thats yr figure
15 times the swines figure
Not 4


Its obvious you arent real bright
A vicderpian wanker
Uneducated
Bubble dweller
Deluded
Not in touch with reality

But try... try n have a think about it
N quit
You are so far behind its embarrasing

Firstly, none of that changes my point one bit, so thanks for agreeing

Secondly, got any proof for this comment? has only about 33% of Sydney's NRL population watching it

nothing you have shown disproves this: Of the 450k or so that typically watch sport on a friday night in Sydney 1 in every 5 will tune into the swans rather than NRL


and the Swans TV ratings in the AFL GF prove they have at least 500k fans. Too easy

LOL I've specifically said it doesnt show total numbers you halfwit. But what it does do is bring the swans ratings into context. 1/4 the NRLs ratings is actually a reasonable result especially given its on 7 mate.

Thanks for coming

For the 10th time Im not saying it does you goose. But on every FN around 450k settle down to watch sport in Sydney and 1 in 5 prefer the Swans. Thems the facts, neither of us can change it
