AFL and Greater Western Sydney Giants rate better in Sydney on a Saturday arvo than Melbourne Storm in prime time in Melbourne.

Will old Roy write an article bout this? Of course not right?

He'd have to admit that the Giants have become more popular in their home market than the Storm are in theirs in less than half the time. (Added to the "less than half" stats)
Going by the ratings.
So, of course he's not.
It astounds me just how many times the NRL are shown to be less that half as good as the "world's least popular sport" at doing something.
Yet, remain Australia's "most popular sport" as we're told.
Puzzling really......

Most people tuning in were there to view 7 news.

You seem to be ignoring where I destroyed your midgets more popular theory .

Same night, same city, same other sport opposition, most reasonable people would think that’s a comparable final...except if it’s the AFL Grand Final which can’t be compared or beaten by any Australian sport....and not by any football sport in attendance.

And who is in the Grand Final....the midgets have grown....lots

Cant find where you mentioned Finals

Yeah but its ok for you to compare Origin to regular season AFL games when it suits. Right.

That's because its regular season Rugby League . We don't just have a club comp for our season . we have a club comp, SOO, and - usually test matches . But But But , ooh we cant compare seasons

But your fine to compare individual matches just as long as they favour you
