    NRLW - 2023

    Thursday and Friday nights are the biggest ratings night for League so the Thursday timeslot could be a winner as far as exposure goes and showing what a great product women`s Rugby League is for potential new fans. I`m pretty sure that Nine will have it on their main channel too. Crowd wise not...

    18th club, whose next?

    This. And if we by some miracle V`landy`s did appear on this forum to answer questions I have little doubt he would chuckle, agree and then point to our record ratings and crowds and to use the words of Oscar Wilde, " there`s only one thing worse than being talked about, and that`s not being...

    Welcome to the comp, Redcliffe.

    Honest to god, I can`t believe I spend my life reading this stuff sometimes.

    NRLW TV ratings killing AFLW

    I doubt it very, very much if any money has changed hands. I suspect the deal is that it just won`t cost the NRL anything to have all the women`s games televised in some form or other.

    18th club, whose next?

    But they (the NRL) are not though are they, so you do have to wonder if this Perth thing is just a mirage and is not going to happen despite our hopes. I would have thought if Perth had such a strong case, and the NRL would know this behind the scenes, then you`d think they`d be shouting it from...

    NRLW TV ratings killing AFLW

    I think that we are being a little mislead with this `new deal`, " free and live in prime time" only means they are being streamed free on 9Now. In fact there are only 3 games - one in the first round and one each from the last two regular season rounds - being shown on Nine`s main FTA channels...

    18th club, whose next?

    Well, everybody is a victim of something these days aren`t they, what do they call it, `victimhood culture`, so I suppose football clubs are just falling in line. ;);)

    NRLW - 2023

    I just can`t believe Nine can have a rubbish super rugby game on Gem every Saturday night - despite its` appalling ratings - and yet can`t find space for an NRLW game which would most likely rate better. Nine really don`t have League`s best interests at heart. Games are never going to rate as...

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    So we`re going to get a Saturday-night FTA women`s game every week. "But the upside is the introduction of free-to-air prime time matches each Saturday night, as well as wall-to-wall rugby league coverage each Sunday afternoon on the Nine Network." Brilliant, can`t wait.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    As reported earlier, the last known figures out of Sky NZ for Rugby League were in 2015 and showed that the Australia/ New Zealand Test match recorded 270k viewers and the Warriors averaged 91k for their games. So, I`d expect the figure for the ANZAC Warriors/Storm game to be somewhere between...

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    But in all seriousness unless you`ve been brainwashed from birth fumbleball is the most ridiculous game on earth and that includes that game in Afghanistan were they fight over a dead sheep on horses. Why didn`t you take the other half. Thanks for the free advice. Well you got that one right...

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    I`m not surprised at all. The Dolphins have gone loss, loss, win, loss in their last four games. At some point when you start losing a few in a row, and some heavily, your crowd numbers are going to drop off. The initial hype surrounding the Dolphins has dimmed unfortunately, that`s not to say...

    Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

    1. f**k all in terms of exposure for advertisers. 2. Caps are for the working classes, theirs is called a boater. 3. I think the official formula they use is (2x+x) squared.
