Just proves what many many of us have been thinking for years. Fair go!!

And these ratings would only improve given regular and consistent broadcasts.

And we have have for too long given the Lions and Swans a free shot, unopposed on Free To Air on Saturday nights.

I hope this gives those negotiating our TV deal some more ammo.

wow, i wonder how the propaganda machine will handle that.

I have been a active member on the Wide world of spots page, giving it to them, but applauded the fact they are showing games in melb this year. It shows that if there was a regular game in a prime slot in Melb people would watch it, and the same goes for others parts of Australia inc Perth and Adelaide.

The AFL have peaked, they have reached saturation across the country, the NRL are a sleeping giant, and if we could ever get this commission working and a decent TV deal inc regular games, it could be a massive force.
