2022 NRL ratings

Yes, the new deal is what I’m talking about. Keep denying reality if it makes you feel better, even V’landys isn’t denying the reality, he’s taken to making excuses like this:

“Wha.. What if something happens??”

The AFL knows Fox is backed by one of the largest media empires in the world and their product is essential to their success in Australia. They went in with that mindset and squeezed them for max value, our head honcho made the idiotic decision to extend with them during a pandemic and didn’t bend them over a barrel, despite our product also being essential to their success.

Let’s see if you know what you are talking about

how much did the afl get paid by seven and foxtel for this new deal. How does this compare to what vlandys got for the nrl ??

$402mill v $593mill TV and Radio rights

Not much we can do about it now really. Ok we're $500 odd million behind for a couple of years. The key questions are how NRL plan on bridging the gap.

Don't the operators of BVOD know there views/viewers are because of the way it operates? Why would they bother paying an independent agency to collate them?

FTA ratings will be a thing for a while to come, but if a Broadcaster can show how much eyeballs are on their BVOD package they will certainly try to sell that to advertisers.

So, I watched the GF on 9HD via a Fetch box (the aerial connection into the Fetch box).

Does that get counted as free to air? Or something else?

Brisbane is a good call for the NRL, make no mistake, its a hugely underserviced market for rugby league and the long term derby prospects cant be under rated. the chance to get two big Brisbane audiences every week is valuable to the NRL and to its broadcasters.

Whether the next market is Perth or NZ - either works for broadcasters and timezones - doesnt really matter to me, as I think the audiences are roughly going to be the same. NZ also works from an international game development perspective.

Nah next team needs to be from Perth.

Perth? It's a million miles away and nobody even plays the game over there, what's the point? You need to put a team in a place where you can get some players from.

26 WA rugby league clubs say you’re an idiot.

How many in Victoria? They produce next to zero players for the competition and storm have been around over 20 years.

All numbers are estimates, based on a sample of 12,000 people who are connected to the OzTam network.

On the flip side, how much money has the Storm produced for the competition since their entry? I would say that they are, with the Broncos, the most important club financially to the competition.

Clubs ideally should be either adding players or money and if adding players was the only concern then you would just adding teams to markets where you already have a presence which makes very little commercial sense.

We had 2 WA jnr's make NRL debuts last season. Tell me you know nothing about RL in the West without actually saying you know nothing about WA RL lol.

Just assuming it's another Melbourne but 3x smaller. I've been to Perth a number of times never saw any league presence there, but you may be right. I feel like New Zealand 2 would be better for producing more players.

The whole system is broken

Its not. NRLWA is celebrating its 75th Anniversary this year, we have clubs here older than half the NRl clubs. We've got 4000 registered players (back in the games hey day we had 10k in a city of 1million), 12,000 touch footy players. We are producing NRL players now in small numbers. Lots of work to do but some good foundations to build it on.

There's no doubt NZ2 would by nature of the physical attributes of kiwis. But thats not the sole reason for expansion. a $188million a year tv revenue gap in 2025 with our main competitor who has a 5 metro reach would be a key one!

Yes, that is FTA but no one other than you know you watched it via that medium.

Rugby league beat afl by 26 million viewers approx

the fact the nrl without origins or New Zealand beat the afl on its own is a stunning result

basically 15 nrl clubs beat 18 afl clubs
