Using Reach to determine a programme's place in FTA tables hasn't made that much difference to AFL. Whereas the inclusion of regionals has pushed NRL well up the ranking.

Major downside for NRL, in terms of perception, is the absence of regular Fox data.

The nrl still get all the ratings data but sure afl journalists can use it to their advantage as was done above

Afl tv ratings are still pretty awful

If Fox do lose the nrl to stan then it will change the pay tv landscape and could be good for nrl down the track with Fox coming back down the track more keen than ever for nrl but having to cover losses on the afl deal for seven years

Weren't people going Berko last year about reach being unfair to RL?

And now suddenly it's great?

In these threads, whatever metric suits the argument someone wants to make, is the best. That same person will claim that metric is bullshit the next day if it doesn't suit them.

Have Fox given a reason why they no longer publish a daily table of STB figures?

When this data was available one poster said a viewer only had to switch on to be counted. Which would mean Fox ratings in the past were more akin to Reach than Average.

Fox said Oztam were undercounting them by about 40% and so they intrKayoduced their own measurement system and stopped co-operating with OZtam,

Fox ratings on oztam were done the same way as tv ratings, based on an average. Streaming data from OZtam came through average, reach and minutes - however this was all merged into VOZ and minus Foxtel which withdrew.

Weird when big sports see big declines in ratings. NBA too has had a huge decline
Theres big cost of living issues in most western countries. It shouldn't be that surprising that as disposable income reduces so does spending on such things.
