RL Facts and Figures: 2006 TV Ratings

[miguel de cervantes]

Seems to be a lot of AFL north of the line (i was disgusted to see an AFL team in Mudgee) these days, nothing a few hangings wouldn't sort out.

LOL
:lol::crazy::crazy::lol:

a proof that afl is larger than rugby league is you ask sydney people who barry hall is and more than 5 out of 10 would know ask a melbourne person who camreon smith is and they would say cameron who. also average crowd at an afl match 40000 in sydney, average crowd melbourne rugby league match 10000.

lol and if you stuck your head in a bucket of water three times and pulled it up twice..
i bet 50% of ppl would say you drowned and 50% would say suicide...

your point being...>? omg this will b good

 

[Leagueguy]

I don't think NRL games would rate much in Melbourne. If it's not AFL it needs to be an event so SOO and the GF will rate, nothing else will.

What about Storm games themselves?

 

[raiders fan forever]

fabulous news!! we should get a league channel

 

[Sharkie™]

commonnnn Rugby league..........

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

And if the Storm is in the GF Vs anyone, the Ratings will be better than the Swans last year.

As was shown, Half a million watched a none Storm GF in Vic last year, imagine how many in prime time.

 

[NK Arsenal]

Wooo!!! Go League!!!

:lol:


Chuckles, congratulations on having arranged a new level of poster intellect at LU.

It's called "kkingston" and is slightly above "Wilkinson" but slightly below "Dirt".

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

What about Storm games themselves?

There would be interesting, but if you're going to put games on they should be live and live games when the average crowd is 12k are dangerous.

Still, it's interesting because 9 have a problem next year, with no AFL coverage will they have the balls to push the NRL in Melbourne?

I personally doubt it.

 

[LeagueXIII]

Ask a Melbournian who Billy Slater is and 7 out of 10 would know, after all they are sports fans, aren't they?

 

[kkingston]

its a fact afl is more popular in australia than league. why does nine carry afl live into sydney and not carry league live in melbourne

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

I'm not having a shot at you about that, it is bigger but not by nearly as much as you obviously think. I'm having a go at you about the following comment which was, to be frank, geniused.

If he walked down the main street of any Sydney suburb except the ones adjacent to the SCG the only time he would be bothered for an autograph is when people mistook him for Ben Kennedy.

He's a nobody here and even he'd tell you that.

 

[kkingston]

i know hes a nobody in sydney but hes more of a somebody in sydney than billy slater is in melbourne.
we will have to agree to disagree

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

No, he's a nobody in Sydney and Billy is a nobody in Melbourne.

Sydney is bigger than Melbourne so Big Boofy Barry is the bigger nobody.

You've provided no proof at all.

afl larger than rugby league... you've got to be kidding!!

RL is pro/semi-pro in NZ, AUstralia, PNG, England, France... there are also some semi-pro teams in russia and wales ..
