Origin is 3 games a year. It's a nice thing to boast about and it drives the AFL tards nuts how successful it is, but it's only 3 games.
Yeh and every other game rates as well as the AFL as proven even by the guy who claimed it didn't just posts ago.
This game needs to be put in context, its 2 days before an Origin and played without three of the biggest stars in the code.
Its bad scheduling, Im positive Foxtel's ratings would have been well down last night also, they are killing there golden goose, by dumb thinking.
The same fixture in Sydney with the biggest membered club in the League only drew 11K, thats as bad if not worse.
Its not doomdsay, sky is falling, AFL beat us in everything rubbish though.
I shouldnt be replying, but FM this myth that the Gen Yers have the people wont watch a dead rubber Origin is the biggest piece of shit Ive ever heard in my life. It makes the moon landing hoax people look sensible.
