live for once? so finals arent usually live?
afl will win..but lets compare for fun 😛
Tigers v Dragons – 55k
Broncos v Warriors – 50k
Eagles v Cowboys – 25k
Storm v Knights – 24k
154k – I admit being generous for the Eagles there
AFL and NRL finals show different geographical spread
The Dragons v Tigers will be a massive tv ratings match, not sure about the others though for the sydney market
AFL and NRL finals show different geographical spread
Cant see the Knights beating the Storm, but the other 3 for me are toss of the coin, could be the first time that 4th exists in week 1 if Dragons beat the Tigs and Cowboys and Warriors win
Who needs the biff when you have finals football?
‘NRL is the 4th code in Victoria and that after News Ltd has been pumping millions into Victoria”
wow! and here I was thinking it was number 1
Forget everywhere else, AFL's problem is in Brisbane
I bounced a stedeman afl style once..holy crap am i really wanting to support afl? 🙂 Sherrins are over-rated taste wise it was bland and tough
Forget everywhere else, AFL's problem is in Brisbane
Every sport knows you cant have all the teams winning the grand final in a year..the bottom teams will get bad crowds – that shouldnt be a shock horror
Lions, Port are like a dogs breakfast at the moment and their crowds reflect that, they will be in the top 8, top 4 soon enoughand then crowds will be back.
Lets not compare AFL v NRL crowds – again with no surprise, the AFL’s crowds are bigger!
Forget everywhere else, AFL's problem is in Brisbane
Agree, I’ve been wanting to see the Ashes back and tours back, I like the 4 nations but we need the ashes back.
Why it's time to bring back Kangaroos tours
Correct me if I am wrong..but are the 4 Storm players charged all from the bench?
Manly and Melbourne fined, ten players charged
Agree Johnno – I hope both clubs accept the fines and accept punishment handled out – if and when they lose on appeal.
Manly and Melbourne fined, ten players charged
What? Jee whiz Manly v Cowboys at the SFS will struggle to pull 15k
NRL set for gripping final round
Glen and Adam 3- weeks and Brett 4 weeks..simple as that
If they complain show them the footage – fighting after being binned near the sideline, they deserve long suspensions
Fight night not a good look, but get on with it
It would be at brookie – they are more flexible these days
Tigers v Dragons on a friday night – surely would get 70kplus again at ANZ and I bet thats where they’ll play it
NRL set for gripping final round
Channel 9 are pathetic simple as that, they didnt want fox sports to have the superleague or challenge cup finals but wont show it when they have it. Sadly they will have some games in next tv deal but lets pray the NRL is tough with them to show games with GEM
How Channel Nine has failed all sports fans
Not sure about channel 10, they seem to be losing money, cutting shows,staff etc, ONE HD might not even be around in a few years time, channel 7 is where the money is and 9 wont go without no rugby league
Foxtel could miss out on NRL, says Gallop
Big talk from Gallop, lets see if his bite is more than his bark come negoatiations time
Foxtel could miss out on NRL, says Gallop
I thought it was a big milestone to sign up 10k members
GWS's 10,000 member milestone not significant
Tigers v Dragons would be a beauty – full house at thr SFS for sure
Storm would win, Broncos would win, toss up for eagles and cowboys
2011 NRL finals really start this weekend
Its a issue no doubt, hopefully if the Warriors do finish 4th the NRL could have change of the finals matches
Manly vs Storm Grand Final is a certainty. Or is it?
Agree with both of you guys, but I like the concept of the 20-40 kick
Harrigan proposes 20-40 for NRL
Neil Henry was laughable in his post game press conference, I’m sick of coaches complaining did he say his side led 24-12 at one stage? did he mention they led with 10 and 5 mins to go? he would have been celebrating if payne had of been hit and thurston kicked the penalty.
Luke’s final act secures win for Bunnies [video]
Lets play the finals and see what happens..I think a few surprises are still up the sleeve
Manly vs Storm Grand Final is a certainty. Or is it?
they musta played in school carnival or something? surely?
Tupou to switches codes from league to join Force
Interesting to see that coming 4th has won more than 2nd place. Don’t know the stats but 7th has beaten 2nd many times
NRL Finals football versus the EPL system
Not to start a league v union war, but I doubt the Rugby will affect the NRL crowds or tv ratings, however if no sydney team in grand final then fair to say a easy excuse if ratings are down
