So yeh if that’s not proof rugby league is number one I really don’t know

and this doesn’t include nz which would add over 7 million more for rugby league and also another 7 million with the phins entry

we can look forward to a tv deal which doesn’t involve Telstra spending a billion in contra

I presume we can look forward to you completely inventing things in the NRL deal too.

So on summary.... Vlandys has completely f.cked up... I said after a few months of his admin that he'd set the game back 10 years. If he can't get more than the AFL he's tenure has been an abject failure. From what he has done to international league, to the digital sector, the stupid rule changes, and now this...
We must be one of the few companies that has a product more people want to consume but that manages to get a shed load less $'s for it than the competitor!!

So are we still looking at trumping the afl by 27 million excluding New Zealand ?

I wonder if the racist controversy will lead to a drop in their grand final ratings

if I was a fumbler it’s would turn me off watching it

need to check Origins numbers again , & wait for regionals for the racistball GF

but " Australias game's " GF
looks like it might finish at least 4th & maybe 5th biggest event in Australia in 2022 behind 4 RL events ..... again !!

very average figures
2.179 Mill metro
Mongbourne 1.066 Mill
Sydney 375K
Brisb 232K
Adelaide 207K
Perth 300K

may have failed to crack 3 million in total & over a mill down on 2021

These figures just can’t be right. I heard someone on ABC radio say that the grand final was regularly watched by ”over 100,000,000” around the world.

After all it is among the 5 greatest annual sport events globally

I may be getting obsessive about this but I looked at the Wikipaedia citation that the figure of 30 M comes from 2007. AFL house then said the total audience was 172,000,000.
Comment was that this was the likely potential audience if everyone in the benighted countries getting the feed watched.
There is no mention of 30,000,000. This was stuff made up by one of the Wikipaedia Anoraks who tend AFL sites

Lmao normally they beat at least two origins

the only saving grace for afl on tv is their grand final usually rates one or two in most watched programs

I wonder how they will spin a fall of 30 percent in viewers that’s terrible

it’s such a shame Gillion wasn’t given another decade in charge to pursue his vision for the gene

We all know afl makes up stuff

they tried to get soccer kicked off birchgrove oval

when the mayor of the council threatened to audit their junior figures all of a sudden they said the actual number of juniors was like 80 percent less than claimed and quietly took away their bid to play there
