So far no. I asked a client of mine who works in in the media [he is a lawyer] and is involved in researching legal aspects of sports media contracts. Mostly minor sports like hockey does some work with Basketball as well. He said he has """heard""" so Chinese whispers maybe, but he sent me...

This constant rebooting of the same failed plan must surely be ringing alarm bells somewhere?????????????

Quick so very very very true especially the Wallabies is a save all ... RNer It is far more complex me thinks, our playing stocks i.e. real junior numbers and quality of those juniors as QH posted above has rugby in a scary position those that think we need to slowly rebuild are wrong very...

Profound apologises on my part. It never entered my head until you pointed that out. It is becoming a very common term usage "phase", and I used it in the context I had read it. Please understand, I have huge respect for the Holocaust stories, and those who survived. In fact after i left my...

If thats how you see it fine... thats why I almost never posted it. Actually its nothing to do with the A-League, its about how a sporting governance body in Australia with many stakeholders and fans upset with the management of their sport has reacted. I believe that using working examples...

Almost scared to post this, the 60's song ""Runaway" springs to mind on what I should do after posting. The metal helmet will not be enough I am sure and some maybe many will read something sinister re what i am about to post. Soccer has been in a three year civil war and as many would know...

Puts on helmet, awaits the rocks being thrown. My very limited understanding is RA is not full of cash and money. I also believe the path forward is vira a National Domestic Competition [NDC]. Which I think today needs to be based on a USA franchise model, see many of my post on this before...

papworth was or is considered the Eastwood man. Jones a talk back jock who has more haters than lovers. What you highlight is as I see it individuals, its either united is a sense of common purpose nor does it enjoy popular support. Papworth has far move rugby folk pointing out where he is...

Sadly I think you are right. There is not even a consensuses on a model, nor a system. Many simply wish to rearrange the deck chairs by remodelling Super Rugby. Nor do I see grassroots pushing for change, nor key stakeholder groups pushing for change. The closest thing we have is Alan Jones ranting...

Wonders aloud have we reached this stage yet. Who will start the civil war for the ousting of an inept management and outdated structures.

AR no longer has the capital, expertise, nor intellect, to solve the issues they are facing. Super Rugby is a millstone, dragging rugby down with the aid of spreadsheets, salaries to highly paid executives who have a “conflict of interest “ to take rugby forward. We need a new set of managers to take...

^^^^^^^^^^ WCR You still keep coming back to trying to determine the number which no one knows. What has perked a lot of interest is that maybe a third or more people are streaming the Fox broadcast. Into a context, if a game rated 100 K, it would equate to 67K on Fox & 33K on various...

WCR & Stew with sorries to Rebels 3. Please please please to the power of please understand this post is about """"streaming""" yes """ streaming""' not the A-League. Whatever number comes up whats important is the percentage and the trend. Just happens this is where a lot of research is...

^^^^^^^ I surrender I should have simply opened a discussion about streaming rather than mention what another code is doing to determine their numbers, as the other code numbers become the topic and attacking their numbers and excuses is good for all. I surrender that when they say they...

WCR You keep coming back to A-League figures as if that is whats being talked about. We could be talking about the NRL or AFL or Cricket it just happens to be its the A-League that is being analysis-ed on what these are. The issue is streaming numbers. This is simply an attempt to...

The article is online now so I have copied the parts I am talking about. Also have bolded some bits A-League executives are reserving judgment on declining television ratings until streaming figures are available and a clearer picture emerges of just how much the viewing habits of football...

Stew & WRC Maybe I don't write well, maybe my communication skills are beyond poor, The article I read clearly said it would be at least two to three weeks before the actual figures are out. So nothing published to date is worth anything and second this is not about the A-League...

Look I don't wanta debate A-League stats nor whether when they did their count or what year etc. The MEASURE SCREAMING VERY LOUDLY out of the article was how many people are streaming rather than watching on Fox. I have no idea what the figure will be, but I do care because if FFA have had a...

Read an interesting article in the TerrORgraph today can't seem to find it online so will summarise as best I can. I assume this is something super rugby is looking at as well The A-League ratings are down 52% over the last say 14 months, yet their membership and crowds are up. Makes no...

Just saying I don't have any idea's on this other than something. I think, should be done but don't know what nor how to even start. A young client came in on Monday, he was a tradie and from his phone he had a complete accounting system in the cloud and his phone was capable of answering all...
