2024 TV and Streaming Ratings Discussion

[Billythekid]

708 live rated sporting events on Foxtel streaming this calendar year
Top rated F1 is the AusGP at #75
top rated supercars is Bathurst at #143
Top cricket fixture comes in at #308
Top BBL fixture at #406

Is this mostly from the finals? Each week the NRL seemed to dominate the foxtel ratings so it’s weird to see the inverse here.

yes, and some big final round ratings, particularly last day of the AFL H&A season.

[RL The greatest game]

That’s one thing cricket has done really well, getting people to watch the games during the day. Watching the cricket is kinda like the NFL where you just have a full sport day (and have a BBQ or whatever). Would love to see the NRL achieve something like the NFL do on Sundays.

Every 1st grade game should be played with 2 other games, like a women's game and a juniors game for example, but the format can be flexible as to who plays.

Hard to do with nrl games being shown one after the other most times

They could do it on Saturday and Sunday for one game

Timeslots are largely all taken up by current games

Thurs 805
Friday 6.05 and 8 pm
Sat 2 to 9 (3 games)
Sunday 4 to 6
Sunday 630

It was just an idea about getting people through the gates earlier and trying to make a day of it, but like you say hard to do with the TV time slots.

They are looking at doing it but just not televised

Old school days you had reserve grade and under 21 before the first team

Now they play at different times

Some teams don’t even have a reserve grade side they have a feeder team which isn’t even in their area
