2015 TV ratings

[Perth Red]

It is 3500 for fta across the country and 1480 for pay tv. Ok when big numbers but when small numbers the sampling is way too small to have any accuracy around it. No one I know has a box, they all watch NRL. If just half of them did the nrl tv viewing figures for Perth would be 50k plus every week!

 

[BuffaloRules]

You have to remember the sample group is so small that to then apply it to the overall population is very iffy. One box per 5000 people in Perth. So according to the figures 4 households with boxes watched the first game, less than one (how they get that I have no idea, I think 7k is just a default number given how often we see it!) the second.

I don't buy this argument of the sample size being too small...

Advertisers and TV companies make multi million dollar decisions based on the results... They must have some faith in the data...

The results seem pretty consistent each week as well -7K...

Souths doing the NRL's job and growing the game and their fan base in Perth. There was actually a little bit of hype in the paper in the week leading up meaning people actually knew a game was on!

They know there is a one off game on Friday afternoon but don't realise there is the usual game every Friday night?

I wonder how many have purchased the app?

This is the most league I've watched in a long time since getting the App. I reckon it's making a huge difference. Getting a piece of nearly every game.

They must know the stats

Great results...

Getting over 300K is becoming rare, especially at 3pm like the Tigers/Eels did...

Competition is off to a pretty even start this year, so things seem promising on the Ratings front...

Great numbers for yesterdays games.

Thing is you can't possibly have a 7k tv audience when each box represents 6k people. Did a 1/4 of a person in one household watch a game? 350 boxes representing 2.2million people. Not sure that is a particularly huge sample size! I agree. Am staggered advertisers use these figures to base multi million $ decisions on!

You miss the point, there was hype about watching the game. After watching one game it would see, most turned off for the second. Popularity of the teams involved maybe? Maybe people are bored of watching Brisbane? Maybe after the drama of the first game the second seemed a dud? Maybe of the 3.5 households with a box watching game one two of them went and lit the bbq? Who knows.

You can't have a quarter of a person but a person can watch a quarter of the game.

Sample sizes are fine. It's all statistics. It works.

The idiots at the Telegraph had that game listed as a Nine game twice last week (when the team lists came out and for the Friday preview).
