I agree that’s a risk, I say make it 20 metres or even 25 for a mark to make that style very difficult. And / or no longer rewarding a backwards kick with a mark except in forward 50

Didn't the ANZAC round last year get 5.9 million, could be wrong.
Wookie do you have the NRL total comparison for the weekend?

There's a game still to be played tonight after being delayed due to a Covid scare.

Yep 3 out of the top four programs on Fox
Yesterdays NRL rated 34k in Brisbane (from the Oztam data) on Nines main channel.
That seems to be very low for NRL in Brisbane which is supposed to be a RL town.

Mediaweek reporting 256k metro, the data says 256k
*edit - I was using the wrong data - Brisbane rated 86k for the NRL

If you knew V’landys as a teenager he would have definitely been that guy who claimed he had a girlfriend who “went to another school, you wouldn’t know her.”

Only one NRL game so would've been absolutely shocked if it wasn't. North v GWS numbers would be a worry for the AFL though.
The real test of ratings was never going to be the first round back, but this weekend coming up. Hype was always going to give big numbers, so be interesting to see what they are like this week. NRL figures have dropped 20% since first round back, so lets see what the AFL does.
Of course they should a bit but will still kill the NRL!

When you include regional areas the gap isn't as large as it appears when you only see 5 major city numbers. But it is also a question of return on investment, something that Channel 7 and Foxtel both had been failing to get up until now from the current rights, hence why both have serious financial concerns.
I thought Tasmania and NT was counted as part of the regional numbers, could be wrong on that...
The gap is still massive.
It also doesn't capture:
-the AFL goes for longer and it as often as not beats the NRL live game in the ratings with both its pre match and post match
-the AFL pulls OK numbers in Sydney and Brisbane and nearly always has the games in perth on 7 mate. Last Thursday and Friday the AFL games got 216K and 195K on 7 mate.
7 got a smaller discount off a larger base than channel 9 got for the NRL. It has also signed on for two more years apparently with CPI increases on the existing deal
I am not sure on what basis you are asserting "serious financial concerns" are due to what they are paying for the AFL?
Don't think the NT is

Tasmania is. NT isnt.
Decent Metro ratings for last night considering the margin was out to 8 goals half way through the third quarter - 624K.
Another 235K on foxtel so only needs 141K regional to get over 1 million again.
The NRL snuck into the top 20 with 301K metro....and got 220K on foxtel
Update:
So regional 203K for a total 1.062
