NRL 2017 TV RATINGS!

[Raiderdave]

Last years opener was Parra vs Broncos

Ratings reflect the difference Between Parra and Sharks on FTA.

i know that
but one poster had last years opener ( parra v broncos ) at 1089 Mill & another other 1241 Mill

which is correct

 

[Raiderdave]

question answered above.

 

[Raiderdave]

Cowboys V Raiders 333K
Titans V Roosters 241K
Dragons V Penrith 229K

ok ratings
pretty impressive for the Raiders game .... 2 small regional clubs
it was a cracking game too

I think it showed that people want to watch attacking footy.

Hopefully the NRL/Foxsports looks at these ratings and understands Friday 6pm does not add viewers to the game and can swiftly move some of these fridays to a friendlier slot. Obviously that won't happen.

Fox Sports say it's a pub game and those viewers aren't counted but obviously Fox Sports pubs and clubs subscribers are

they can pay a fair bit for that too depending on the size of the venue

The thing about the whole pub thing is most pubs I see aren't very full until 7 anyway, that's why they have happy hour from around 5-7pm. I honestly think if they played the Dogs v storm on Sunday 6pm, you would get the same if not more viewers and a lot more people would have attended.


But then again I'm just speculating. Kinda like how the NRL did when they tried to justify the 'pub' game

 

[El Diablo]

i seriously doubt there's as many people at a pub or club on a Sunday night

With a heading like "AFL Nears Rugby League's Popularity in Queensland" and a section on NRL crowds being exaggerated it's not exactly impartial.

He calls up AFL when crowds look over reported as well, notably some of the GWS figures. Someone saying something negative about the NRL does not make them ipso facto biased. Although yes, he is an AFL `guy`.

His site is the best available, most complete, and least biased source you are going to find.

 

[Hello, I'm The Doctor]

Noticed the Bulldogs and Storm was just above South V Tigers, Hopefully this says something to the NRL. Surely Fox Ratings wouldn't be any worse on a Sunday night. In fact I think they would be a lot better, due to people watching tv more then.

I have a suspicion that they are giving the NRL shit for playing hard with the tv negotiations...

Fox gets the same thing whether the game is early friday or late sunday, its the NRL losing money with the crowds. When Greenburg goes begging to FOX to change the slot, they probably be like "this is what happens when you f*ck with us"...

Anyone who thinks that fumbleballs popularity in Queensland is approaching Rugby Leagues must be on the wacky baccy

Well my comment about Wacky Baccy ties in nicely with that, or perhaps LSD which makes people even more delusional.

maybe in another five years, QLD will be an AFL state.

Haha. How did that work out?

Not even in 500 years will Queensland be a fumbleball state, and neither will be NSW despite all the puff pieces that fumbleball house pay to put in the newspapers

Even more conservative posters were saying maybe 20-30 years ha ha.
