AFL never does well when it’s a level playing field with other codes.
It’s the 4th code in NSW, QLD, ACT by a long way.
Only in the southern states where the Southern media and the AFL block the support of other code can the AFL compete.
That’s after spending million’s and million of dollars compared to other codes.
Forget everywhere else, AFL's problem is in Brisbane
Well it would never happen in the Rugby codes. But if two RL players can walk in to the AFL after never playing the game then why cant the girls.
Women playing elite AFL? Forget about it
24k is very bad when you are spending million on publicity and giving away free tickets add to this a massive drop off on the first game in the TV ratings.
I think we will see a big drop off on the Sun’s next year. How many millions will the AFL spend on next years games and get 15,000 and 50,000 in prime time TV.
Brisbane exacts revenge over Gold Coast Suns
Lachlan, The AFL has never ever dominated a city where it has had competition from other codes. AFL was around in Sydney 50 year before rugby league was invented and still failed to take root. I would say as the southern media open up and the brain washing of people like yourself starts to fade the other codes will take root in Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania. You never or will never have ACT and Northern Territory is as much NRL as AFL.
New Zealand captain hopes for AFL team
There is only thing that the AFL players can do and that’s Strike! Strike! Strike!
AFL boss maintains AFLPA wrong on pay

Demetriou says GWS will hold off threat from NRL

If only I was not brainwashed to hate league…
If only the AFL had something that was more then club footy…
Please God let me come back a Queenslander!!!! or if not a New South welshman!!!
I feel sorry for you Brian and the rest of the people who don’t grow up loving how great it is being part of SOO!!!!!!

You either have it or you don’t and the AFL don’t…. give it up! SOO in AFL in long dead
AFL State of Origin: Redraw the battlelines
The_Wookie, Even if that’s true they will still get the same amount. It would be an insult to offer the NRL less when it smashes every other program on Foxtel. Plus there is no guarantee that the subscriptions will improve that much down south because there free 2 air coverage is still pretty good.
NRL's pay TV strength positions it growth
I have no doubt that the NRL will get the same deal if not better from Foxtel and Telstra.
It’s the free 2 air rights that will be interesting, but if done properly and adding in the New Zealand TV rights they could better the AFL’s. Now that would put a wobble the Andrew Demetriou chin’s
NRL's pay TV strength positions it growth
Xman,
Think about it!
Some weeks the AFL wins the free 2 air ratings and some weeks NRL wins. It’s pretty even on most counts. But add to this STATE OF ORIGIN which the AFL has nothing that comes close in it’s home and away season. Then add RL internationals which Year-to-Year Basis is the highest rating international sport on Australian TV. Then add (Not like we need to) Pay TV ratings and the NRL blows the AFL out of the water.
What the NHL can teach the AFL about expansion
The only time GWS will get 15,000 people watching is on Primetime TV.
What the NHL can teach the AFL about expansion
The Cattery,
When you are the most watched code on Australian TV then anything is possible!
What the NHL can teach the AFL about expansion
Redb, Im going to laugh and laugh when the NRL eclipse the AFL in there new TV deal.
The Lions have never got good TV ratings and the Swan are the joke of Australian Primetime TV.
Both the Swans and Lions got under 10,000 a game after 13 years being in the AFL.
What the NHL can teach the AFL about expansion
Sun can’t even sell out the ground “CROWD 21,485”.
Pretty poor crowd considering all the hype.
But the AFL propaganda machine keeps telling us it was a sell out.
But I guess 21,485 will match the TV ratings
Even the Melbourne Storm and Rebels sold out there first games at there new ground.
Look forward to seeing the crowd when they play North Melbourne in coming weeks
Gold Coast Suns fall but give Geelong a big scare
Folau Who?
Who care, He has been replaced very quickly and forgotten at the Broncos, Queensland and Australia.
The only person the AFL has hurt with there pettiness is Folau.
Will AFL's Israel Folau ever play State of Origin again?
Yep, Swans are going great in Sydney!
Seven’s AFL: Rnd 9: Sydney Vs Hawthorn Seven 403,000 49,000 239,000 4,000 104,000 7,000
Netball: ANZ Championship 2011 Live Ten 140,000 54,000 31,000 42,000 9,000 5,000
The NRL's future lies in its past
If you want great ratings i would put 8 games of Rugby League on.
What should be on the AFL channel?
Everything the AFL does smells fishy. AFL = Spin!!!
Forget everywhere else, AFL's problem is in Brisbane
