NRL Rugby league ratings, crowd and the media discussion

[footy75]

Excellent result in Melbourne with 608,000 watching the telecast. Only 492 in Brisbane and 848 in Sydney. Acceptable results in Adelaide and Perth given there's no teams in either state.

Great result.

How many were they allowed to have? That looks a pretty good number for a Thursday night with restrictions.

As far as I know, it was a sell out. Although obviously about 3k didn't turn up.
Absolute horror getting out of the stadium. More or less had to go out the door you went in.

28,313 in Brisbane and a performance you'd think would have people coming back for more.

Jarryd Hayne looks to be in a little bit a trouble

Jail term 'inevitable' as former NRL star Jarryd Hayne found guilty of sexual assault

Jarryd Hayne is found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman on the night of the 2018 NRL grand final. He says he'll appeal the decision and that he'd "rather go to jail knowing I spoke the truth, than be a free man living a lie".

Two weeks in a row the Storm have attracted fantastic numbers. I'm guessing the Gem numbers were about the same as usual.

And finders, 14k is the covid allowable capacity.

Are we still at 75% or are they back at 100% (not sure if it's lifted or it will be lifted on Monday)

Are we still at 75% or are they back at 100% (not sure if it's lifted or it will be lifted on Monday)

My understanding is, still 75% in NSW.
