10,384 at HBF Arena in Joondalup for the Fremantle vs West Coast Marsh Series game.
And 5,127 last week in Mandurah for Fremantle vs Carlton.
With the AFLW games going on at Leederville, Lathlain and Fremantle Ovals, it’s great these WAFL grounds getting some big attendances.

All TBCs on the womens.afl match reports are now confirmed. Saturday night's game at Ikon Park became the first time an AFLW H&A season crossed the 200,000 spectators mark.

I'm feeling more confident in my crowd predictions for round 1 than I ever have before.
Ratings could be very good if they do actually play

It’s time to think about the real victims here: my spreadsheets.
Going to have to spend my self isolation time rejigging all the formulas.
Also, if I said that the virus was started by Essendon people trying to stop Scott Pendlebury from overtaking Dustin Fletcher as the ‘most watched‘ player ever it sadly wouldn’t be anywhere near as stupid as some of the theories people have been bandying around.

Hard to say. The games may be very sterile and turn viewers off.

Last night's ratings will be very intriguing. A lot of people may have turned off by 3/4 time and missed the best part of the match.
SEVEN’S AFL: THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL | Seven Network | 798,000 | 31,000 | 542,000 | 39,000 | 110,000 | 76,000 |
Huge numbers in Melbourne, pretty decent (comparatively) everywhere else.
Also a shorter match, so I guess a shorter program length. That makes a difference.

Highest rating season opener in the Foxtel era. Highest rating Melbourne audience for the season opener on FTA game 2009. Highest rating season opening game on Foxtel since they began live broadcasting it.

Good point about shorter length, although in this case, you'd think the difference is marginal.
For a long time we've tried to educate our NRL bretheren that a 3 hour broadcast is much more valuable than a two hour broadcast, and that it's much harder to maintain the same rating over a 3 hour period than it is for a 2 hour period.

one of the benefits of being one of the only leagues still playing. Likewise, the A-league and NRL.
I don't think it's as marginal as you think. Someone that watches for an hour counts as 0.33 viewers on a 3 hour telecast and 0.43 viewers on a 2:20 telecast (which Fox was last night). That might not seem like much, but it's a 30% increase. Huge in context.
Some have trouble factoring that in to the value of the media rights, i.e what the user is prepared to pay.
That's right. A decent number of fans of all codes will sit down and watch the whole game.
A decent number of watchers of all codes will watch some portion of a game - i.e. half and hour or an hour.
The higher proportion that second group is the greater the disadvantage (and misleadingness) in average viewer figure
