Wests Tigers get four fta games in the final 6 weeks (3 Sundays in a row and a Fridays night) when they are zero chance of a top 8 finish.
Dogs who are a maybe (at best) get 5!!!!!
Eels - who are only vaguely better than the dogs get 5 as well.
Broncos get 5; no surprise there
Panthers who will be thereabouts get 3.
Knights get 2 - against Raiders and eels. Won't they be fun?

Storm get one - a Friday night.
Sharks get a single Friday.
Roosters get nothing!

Dude, this is seriously f*%#ed up right here.

Do FTA games matter as much as they used to anymore though?

70% of households still don't have cable TV. While there are other ways to see the games, yeah it matters to lots of people.
Also, jersey sponsorship values are still significantly influenced by FTA viewing figures, so the clubs care too.

Jesus we get a lot of FTA games for a team that sucks ass

We have to get good ratings or something

I didn't suggest they didn't matter, just that they matter less, given Fox now simulcast all games and more people have Pay TV than say did, 5-10 years ago

All complete for 2017 with the RLWC wrapping up.

Unsticking this one now!
