This isn't bigfooty, no one gives a f**k how many cult members are crammed into the 'G' spot. I doubt there will be astronomical viewing figures and wouldn't care if there were, they would need astronomical figures for every game to start closing the 50 million viewer gap in the overall season.
No he isn't, he's an aflol troll coming in to a tv ratings thread talking about crowds and hypothetical ratings because it’s all they have.To be fair he is addressing a rather salient point
That's because Essendon had zero chance of beating the Bulldogs and the result was beyond doubt at Quarter Time. Today's Hawks-Cats match, however, is a thriller and should keep viewers tuned in from start to finish. Not sure why the NRL wouldn't want to compete with a game on Channel 9?
Yeh, as with any fta game has a higher total across 2 broadcasters. It's up to the Nrl and the fta provider if they want to include it as a guaranteed fta game in the next tv deal like good friday is now.
Meh. The atmosphere at the MCG is nothing special. Plus Australian Rules footy is just an awful sport to watch.
No one cares bro.
It's an epic contest between genuine rivals. Like many here you have a blind hatred of AFL and nothing is going to change that, your loss.
I actually had a quick look and Commbank sounds louder.
Only relevant to people who like that 'sport'. I personally don't care and can't differentiate between a good and a bad contest because it all looks like seagulls fighting over a chip.
People have had 4 opportunities to watch Nrl fta on this holiday weekend, 1 more than usual.
I can appreciate a good contest regardless of sport. For example, I'm not the biggest fan of Rugby Union and usually find games boring to watch but if a match is hotly contested, with many lead changes, heroic defensive efforts and exciting scoring plays I will tune in. Same applies to AFL and any other team ball sport.
That's fine, go to bigfooty or the roar to discuss it then, stop bringing it up here on an nrl forum.
It’s ok I’ve come to have a chuckle whenever I see a post from this afl troll. Just shows how much league is making inroads and fumble zealots are feeling the need to come in here. It just validates the success league is having.
