    Channel 9 don't want to broadcast the 6pm AEST game as it interferes with their 6pm news.

    It's quite confusing but if you look at the Metro Rankings post by TV.Cynic on Mediaspy: The Roos v Power is coded as follows in the Adelaide table: SEVEN’S AFL: SUNDAY AFTERNOON FOOTBALL - GAME 1 The Melbourne table has one game, Melbourne v St Kilda, coded as: SEVEN’S AFL: SUNDAY AFTERNOON...

    No. The TV deals are structured very differently which seems to be beyond the understanding of most here. The TV ratings for FTA are down slightly. Crowds are down a little but still way ahead of NRL.

    For anyone who wants to deal in facts: Melbourne v St Kilda 297k Gold Coast v West Coast 147k North Melbourne v Port Adelaide 60k

    Look at the OzTAM data. There are three separate entries: SEVEN’S AFL: SUNDAY AFTERNOON FOOTBALL (Melb v StK) SEVEN’S AFL: SUNDAY AFTERNOON FOOTBALL - GAME 1 (NM v Port) SEVEN’S AFL: SUNDAY AFTERNOON FOOTBALL - GAME 2 (GC v WC)

    Incorrect. They are coded differently on Oztam. 297k was Melbourne v St Kilda. Go here if you want a full explanation: https://forums.mediaspy.org/t/sunday-15-march-2026/30654/14

    Apples and oranges. On Sundays different markets get different AFL games on 7 The 297k rating is for Melbourne v St Kilda which was on in NSW and VIC at 3pm SA got North Melbourne v Port Adelaide QLD and WA got Gold Coast v West Coast

    The ratings were low, but as per the broadcast agreement the FTA simulcast was a two hour delay in limited markets. Anyone wanting to watch the game had already watched it on Fox/Kayo. The equivalent is the NRL making Nine air the Dragons v Storm game on a 2 hour delay into Melbourne only. Of...

    I didn't troll anyone, you guys are the ones saying AFL ratings for a 2 hour delayed telecast in limited markets were poor. I merely pointed out the equivalent NRL ratings were zero.

    This is an NRL ratings thread. Just to clarify, it's acceptable to discuss AFL ratings here but only if you take some sort of insular Sydneycentric pride in dissing them. Bringing up any counterpoints upsets people. Cool.

    Sandra Sully with the late news... That was my point.

    Yes, I watched the game on Fox League. My point is that FTA doesn't show every Storm game in Melbourne.

    If this forum if any indication of Sydney, people talk about AFL all the time... it's like a hobby to talk down its ratings or popularity. How about sticking to the equivalent NRL ratings result: The Dragons v Storm game on Saturday rated a 0 on 9Gem in Melbourne.

    What has the club done to differentiate themselves from the failed Seagulls/Giants/Chargers/Crushers franchises of the past?

    Strange comment. Do the 38,128 people who turned up to the SCG last night not exist either?

    I didn't bring up the AFL ratings, I just corrected the misinformation posted by others. The RL games I watch generally involve the Storm; I wasn't aware there was a requirement to comment on every game?

    How many reserved seat members do the Dolphins have when they play at Suncorp?

    I just don't subscribe to the "us v them" narrative peddled by V'Landys and followed by most on this forum. Both codes can be successful and it's not a crime for fans to enjoy more than one sport.

    Saturday AFL games are exclusively live on Fox. This figure is for delayed telecasts on FTA in limited home markets. Why the obsession with trying to deride AFL?

    They don’t show ads on Fox apart from quarter and half time breaks. I was referring to FTA games on Seven.
