How is it that we can’t dictate terms to the TV networks like the AFL do?
yet crowds are tracking ahead of 2019 during the wettest winter on record up against live telecasts.
We keep conceding things that impact crowds and once you’ve given them up it’s almost impossible to get them back. Also no competition for the tv rights means tv can dictate and we don’t really have much choice. Seems the nrls answer is just to keep upping the nrl grant to keep clubs viable instead of helping them build their game day revenue.
It was interesting to see how many people, especially families were leaving commbank last week around 9pm with still a third of the game to go. There is no good reason to have games finishing at 10pm.
What time do the AFL finish on Friday nights?
Should have 1pm, 3pm, 5:30pm, 7:30pm Saturday
even later but lets not let the facts get in the way of a whinge
FNF used to be an event
pouring out my window atm , but hopefully will clear around 4pm
trust me , their time is coming
This. Then move the kick-off time to 7.15 pm on Thursday and Friday. Leave Sunday how it is.
7:15 is too early, 7:30 is the go
