The dipshit on 2GB is bagging NRL crowds as usual with a couple of Victorians.
That sounds right, at least the weren't lying.
Mon night before Origin is massively dumb scheduling.

Are they really murdering us in the TV ratings? State of Origin tomorrow night will likely be the highest rating TV show of the year.

It's a pretty baggable crowd. Utterly shithouse6,497

Yes they are. Check them week by week. Their cumulative ratings between FTA and Foxtel are much higher than ours every week. Sure we win with SOO. But that is about it.
Our TV deal and coverage is killing us.
And their advertising is superior to ours.
Their contra deal is far more effective.
The AFL has a much better and far more comprehensive whole of game strategy around exposure.
Their game is crap but bloody hell they promote it so much better than we do ours.
Sorry mate but yes they are. Saturday is particularly bad. Our ratings have fallen through the floor. The AFL ratings on Fox are as bad but they also have FTA and they kill us overall every Saturday.
I have a really bad feeling about how big the gap will be at the end of this year.
Happy to be wrong but I cannot see how that will happen.
go and ask The Wookie
even his running tally proves that is false
His latest graph which was on a thread on big footy which was deleted had the NRL like 4m ahead overall (including pre season, origin, internationals and stuff), 39m to 35m from memory.
Okay lets wait and see then.
As an example, on Friday night our ratings FTA were 562000 according to my figures, while the AFL had 970000 viewers before regional figures were added to both codes.
Last Friday night the NRL was no.36 of top 40 consolidated regional + metro audience with 949k, compare to your number for the Afl of FTA + STV(includes regionals) and the difference is negligible. Also keep in mind that there is a slump during origin week so ratings are down from the million plus before origin.
Just been sent some figures that tend to support you and El D.
Happy to be wrong then![]()
No problem mate, you still have a point about greater fta exposure, we really gift the afl Saturdays night fta. Plenty of improvement to look forward to with next deal hopefully!
