NRL on course for TV ratings victory over AFL

[Starkers]

Old um aghh was as useless as tits on a bull.

and the FFA are finding that out the hard way...

 

[El Diablo]

For years now this has been the most obvious expansion strategy, they should really announce now & give them a few years to be ready for start of new tv deal.

they're waiting for Perth Dickhead to cark it before they say yes to a team

 

[Billythekid]

Agreed, the AFL is pretty close to maxed out in it's gropwth whilst the NRL is still rebuilding after the SL war and the Gallop years.

The game is still recouping lost revenue and oportunities after Gallop allowed it to run on an oily rag and undersold it for so long.

The commission should be lauded more for the best decision they made which was one of their first, that is disposing of Gallop ASAP,

The AFL's expansion clubs are also in serious danger of folding if the AFL ever stop pumping insane amounts of money into them.

I keep saying this but both the lions and suns are in for a world of pain when a new Brisbane NRL side comes in. IMO a new Brisbane side is the most aggressive expansion move the NRL could make and would stamp our authority in QLD.

The moment it's announced the AFL will be shitting their pants and will seriously have to consider if they can afford to keep propping up the 2 QLD sides.

The sooner we announce this the better. It's going to be a great thing for our game and we should be looking to get the ball rolling.

Roy won't be invited back on Offsiders any time soon.

So it'll be back to normal then ,with the fumbler appreciation society:-
Kelly Undercarriage
Caro the Lisping Harpie
Dickie Behinds
Plus any scruffy fumbler sycophant who can fumble a few words, they can drag in from the street.
ABC transmission resumed as expected.

As usual there's a horse cock sized hole where the Lions ass should be

"We've always preferred AFL."

Yeah, which is why you came in in 1995 and hijacked rugby league for your flagship TV sport which has never been the same since... and not for the better.

I'll celebrate the day the silly old merkin shuffles off his mortal coil.

f**k that I hope he lives long enough to see his empire fall to pieces.

With all of their off field incidents and now concrete evidence of NRL’s TV ratings dominance AFL house will have to buy Decorug in order for this to be adequately swept away.

 

[RL The greatest game]

As we speak Vicky Kicky house is thinking up its latest untruths to seem significant in Australia

 

[King hit]

More proof that AFL isn’t nationally dominant like they shout it from the rooftops. 55% or so of our country live in NSW and QLD and then you add in Canberra as well. AFL has very little relevance in just over half the population.

Any accountant worth his salt will tell you that you can't keep pumping $20 million + a year into ONE Club and the costs will rise as player wages rise, and in this case its TWO Clubs so that's $40 Milion + a year. $40 Million + a year for two clubs and they are not even treading water.

Interesting the change in scheduling to NRL over 9 control and to not watch the same teams week in week week out has worked.

Wait for them to announce something on eve of origin, they're pathetically predictable.

 

[El Diablo]

it's the pigs that usually do that

those merkins love being in the headlines

There's still time I guess.

Some of them will get out their spreadsheets and calculate fumbleball is winning the TV ratings' war.
The Wookie for one.

yeah i mean thats exactly what i did. No wait its not.

Great point, probably one thay has been lost on Ch9 too.

 

[Disinterested third party]

Go back to your 5 city metros, boy.

Their sheer arrogance blinds them. Sure some clubs have more rusted on fans than others, (or don’t have the power brokers like the Roosters) but there are masses of league fans out there that want to see all the teams and just some friggen variety....including variety of venue. I don’t have fox and have watched heaps more games this year on FTA.

Well good for you.That's certainly a blessing to know ,no fudging exists within AFL circles.And keep those regionals well hidden.Those people either don't exist or are non consumers apparently.
Then you are at ease with the results Roy penned so far.
Not some out of left field comment to discredit the statement.
