Fight Club - Football TV Ratings

[NlolRL]

Love your dedication and ongoing detailed analysis of all things TV ratings Wookie. Very informative

found more time this season to get stuff done, so should get updated regularly.

[SportCapital]

thered be more but im settling in to Launceston atm

Any word on the street for theTassie team push?

[NlolRL]

So who will win tonight's ratings?

The NRL have a sydney and Brisbane club playing, both who made the finals last year

The AFL have two Melbourne clubs playing, so only 1 city engaged. Plus Perth will see the game at 4.20pm on a weekday

Surely advantage NRL

[Cats_Steve]

You'd have to think NRL for that reason.

Expecting massive numbers down here for tonight's clash though, can't wait.

AFL Tigers v Pies

[SportCapital]

A bit disappointing.

[Cats_Steve]

A bit disappointing.
Crowd too, was down from what i'd've expected.

I was definitely expecting 80k at the very least.

Are our crowds normally lower on a Thursday, by this much?

Melbourne's ratings dont virtually double when the pies or tigers play because they are only 1 of 10 clubs in Melbourne, not the only club. Furthermore there are numerous clubs the AFL can play to maximise ratings. If they really wanted to target the highest ratings theyd play the eagles vs a melbourne club every Thursday or Friday night. However daylight savings and the time difference make that almost impossible.

Ch9 show the broncos for good reason. When they are not on the nrl rates far lower

the game tonight in the NRL will go very close to that figure also.
if not beat it..

Blah Blah Ch9 Show Broncos >> They will be on FTA 15 times this year only 15>>
and 4 of those games are on Sunday..

1. Ch9 doesnt show them all the time.
2. 60% of games are only FTA>>
3. IF WE HAD THE AFL DEAL

BRONCOS COWBOYS would be on FTA every week

WOW JUST WOW

could you imagen the lift in TV FIGURES

[leeroy*NRL*]

COWBOYS IN FACT ARE JUST AS BIG A TV WINNER AS THE BRONCOS
BECAUSE OF THE POPULARITY IN REGIONAL QLD

but will only get 11 FTA games>>

In fact the way the NRL deal is set up..
it limits the figures of some of our biggest clubs.. with limited FTA games..

Gold Coast Titans for example when on FTA rate around 150k+ "Brissy Metro figures"

but will only get 3 FTA games the entire year.. ( look at all those missed tv figures they could be getting

[Terry]

After the off season we've had the NRL ratings are actually very good. I fully expected a drop of up to 20% but it hasn't happened. They are down a little but when Kayo is factored in they would be level with last year or maybe a little in front.

The AFL ratings have improved somewhat but that is compared to last years massive drop. I suspect they are still a long way short of 2017 numbers.

You're missing the point. It's not that they are on FTA it's when. Thursday Friday are the highest rating games so that's why the Broncos are mainly played on these nights.

You're also missing the point that like the Broncos, Melbourne clubs are not on FTA every week either.

For the AFL:
RND 1 RIC V CARL, COLL V CATS
RND 2 COLL V RICH, SWANS V CROWS
RND 3 CROWS V CATS, MEL V ESS
RND 4 SWANS V MEL, COLL V DOGS
RND5 LIONS V COLL
RND6 RICH V MELB
RND 7 COLL V PORT
RND 8 SWANS V ESS
RND 9 EAGLES V MELB
RND 10 SWANS V COLL
RND 11 NORTH V RICH
RND 12 RICH V CATS
RND 13 CROWS V RICH, ESS V HAWTH
RND 14 EAGLES V ESS, SWANS V HAWTH
RND 15 ESS V GWS, CATS V CROWS
RND 16 HAWTH V COLL
RND 17 EAGLES V COLL
RND 18 CROWS V ESS
RND 19 COLL V RICH
RND 20 NORTH V HAWTH
RND 21 GWS V HAWTH
RND 22 MELB V SWANS

So Richmond 7 times, Collingwood 9 times, Cats 3 times, Swans 5 times, Crows 5 times, Essendon 4 times, Hawthorn 5 times, Eagles 3 times.

No team has more than 9 Thursday for Friday games.

The Broncos have 14!!
