So he just made something up with no proof ?

He used the data provided to him by broadcasters and oztam and came to a different conclusion. Thats not "no proof". Its a difference of interpretation of data.

The funniest part of the article was where the afl declined to comment on the ratings disparity

The AFL almost never comments on things like this. Generally we dont hear about their season totals until their annual report in march.

Luckily Andrew abdo knows what the real ratings are he’s not waiting for pro afl sources and pro afl journos to give their biased takes

well we assume Abdo has the data he claims. Its just impossible for anyone else to verify.

You havent got aything in this discussion. Did at any stage anyone f**king say that? No.

He said the data HE had to hand didnt match with Aldo. And I said its impossible for anyone else to verify, because no one has all the data needed to do so, or is releasing or publishing anything else. It really is that simple.

Given his sources it’s no wonder he is talking bs

He’s not even trying to hide it anymore.

“League folk”. f**k off a League forum filled with league folk and don’t watch our origin series f**kwitt.

Well he is right. You don’t have to be in a cult all the time. Their attendances and revenue are greater.

I’m shocked!

See how he says the super league war is irrelevant

And it’s only “league folk” who want to talk about ratings as his fellow fumble fans have given up
He went years blocking everyone that called out his biased. Cried that he was straight down the middle.

Now he refers to others as “League folk”, that’s not inclusive or unbiased. He tweets support only for an AFL club weekly.

I knew he was an afl troll 15 years ago

He thinks bc he collects data (and I don’t trust his figures tbh) he has a monopoly on how they are interpreted and what it means for the nrl tv deal

He’s always coming up with reasons why the nrl tv deal should get less

It obviously bothers him

Judging by last nights effort here a lot of drugs and alcohol were consumed. Having said that if you are going to post stuff like that Wookie you are inviting it. With a bit of objectivity for example you might mention the afl has much greater costs than the NRL due to more teams, a much longer and more costly women’s comp, a much greater travel component and costs and also literally hundreds of more players required. Comparing crowds in a rather snide way was also not helpful.
I should have added that the afl is also propping up two money pits as well. It’s all about context Wookie. You should try it.
