Still a big figure to me re SOO Sutho regardless.Big difference in potential audience reach, football kicked off when the majority where at work, not sitting down after there dinner.
Only? at 2.00pm on a Sunday afternoon, that is outstanding, not to be mocked.Socceroos only got 4m last match.
Not mocking just stating facts! NRL more so state of origin will always be bigger in Australia then football. A sold out stadium in a state that is AFL heavy and smashing ratings like no tomorrow. When have the Socceroos ever done that? That’s right never. But it’s great see to victorians come out and support something else then AFL who would have to be embarrassed right now.Only? at 2.00pm on a Sunday afternoon, that is outstanding, not to be mocked.
Did you not expect this kind of propaganda to come out during the world cup from V'Landys and Co? BTW it was not sold out, 9,000 empty seats.Not mocking just stating facts!

Good on themWC should be marketed as "Country of Origin pty ltd" here, quick call the suits.
Mate people will sell their cars to travel to see their country play in a world cup, they did it before there even WAS television...Good on them
What I learnt so far from the world cup is how much coverage matters
Paramount need to take lessons from sbs and improve the pre and post match next season
paramount needs a product that is worthwhile watching season to seasonGood on them

I disagree the "product" can be shit it doesn't matter, if people are rusted on to clubs they will watch... look at AFL some of it is is terrible but they get massive ratings... Football to be popular here needs clubs people give a shit about.....paramount needs a product that is worthwhile watching season to season
Sorry being brutal but them's the facts - there's that old saying, you get what you pay for.
applies to nrl as well granted and yes both comps would have crap games/clubs yet still get ratings and nothing has changed for them generally but more $'s and the ongoing ratings....I disagree the "product" can be shit it doesn't matter, if people are rusted on to clubs they will watch... look at AFL some of it is is terrible but they get massive ratings...
