KE won't be watching. He can't - he's O/S.

It will be more than 4 viewers not watching. I expect the SOO to not win in the ratings in the football states. It will definitely win in Sydney - no doubt, and probably Brisbane as well. But not in Melbourne, Adelaide or Perth.

yes it probably will be more then 4... it will be 5

& probably Brisbane ? :shock: :_<> :(/

State Of origins hold the top 3 places on TV in Brisbane pretty much every year
the only program that broke them up was in 2006
& that was the NRL Grand Final involving the Broncos

Sydney's origin ratings will whop everything else as per usual

Melbourne we'll go close to winning the time slot ( 8pm)
certainly 300K plus ... maybe 2nd behind Master Chef for the first half hour

& the AFL pro merkins in Adelaide & Perth ch 9's are so scared of origin
they try n hide it late at night

nuh
its a goliath of TV programs
a goliath :wink:

Well what a match eh! Fantastic I could watch it all the way over here in Deutchland and nice to see TLPG putting his foot in it once again by stating I couldnt watch it overseas :D

I was backing the blues but alas it wasnt to be...

And what about that crowd!!!?? Absolutely roaring for the entire match, it was deafening, even in the commentators box. Would have loved to have been there.

the skills these players have is unparralled in Australian sport
that first try by QLD ... although off the back of a soft piggy back penalty was a marvel
NSW were gutsy .. but lacked execution at critical times
& looked a bit panicky in the middle of the 2nd half

all in all
deflated we are now 0-6
but a marvellous spectacle .... & an Atmosphere that even came through the telle it was that electric
