    Hasn't helped the A-League.

    2019 TV ratings and crowd numbers

    I'll take it. Hopefully this can be maintained in the face of both the NRL and AFL kicking off. Badly needed leading into TV negotiations.

    2019 TV ratings and crowd numbers

    I was more or less basing that off the SMH report about the average last season and off the games leading into the weekend. But I like your numbers even more. Interestingly your numbers show both tracking up over the past two and a bit seasons. Up 8% from 2017 to 2018 for Aus only games and 6%...

    That is correct.

    Global Rapid Rugby

    I thought they'd be involved this year. I know they've been looking further afield than Japan for a few seasons now and I think they offer an interesting brand for the competition.

    Was up against the A-League and JLT Series game and still came out on top. It's a good turnaround.

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    That's what I'm thinking. You see at least half a dozen similar situations in every game these days.

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    Having zoomed in on it several times surely if he had made contact with the head No.18s head would have moved before the rest of him. Which from the footage its doesn't. It looks like he made contact relatively high up on the body below the head which shifts the entire weight of the player at...

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    Okay, explain to me how that is a card. Is there a law that says that you're not allowed to counter ruck if the opposition gets over top of it. Because I've never come across it. He doesn't leave his feet or lead with his shoulder. You can actually see his arm wrap under on the contact. So...

    NRC onwards and upwards

    Could work. Would give SS a vessel to prove a point. As for competitiveness. The Tahs backed side. Yes. The SS who know's. Though I suspect it will be a tough first season or two.

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    Nope. Said number 20 very clearly. Even though Hooper was borderline.

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    Mate, the only positive thing about Jackson is he's equally shit for both teams. He penalised Will Miller for no clear release despite the fact as the tackler Miller never got close to the pilfer and had well and truly cleared the ruck by the time he was penalised. I often find myself wondering...

    Round 4 - Festival of Hate - Qld v NSW

    Parramatta new stadium is going to be class and frankly the Tahs should be seriously looking at moving the SCG games either there or Brookvale after tonight. The SCG is not up to scratch and is damn right dangerous.

    2019 TV ratings and crowd numbers

    From what I can find from the games we've hosted in Aus where up around 10% (I think I've got all of the games) from last season Aus average of 71k to a touch over 78k. If the Aus teams can manage to continue to win or at the very least make the opposition have to really work for it hopefully we...

    The numbers should be fairly good for tonight's game as well. Just imagine how much better they could be if RA actually promoted the damn competition. Edit: It beat the AFL JLT Series game. And comfortably enough at that. That's actually an achievement.

    Best Referees In The World

    So I've now seen three games with this bloke in charge and I have to say I like the way he goes about a game of Rugby. Yes, at times I've looked at a few of his on field decisions and wondered why he did/didn't pick them up (none of which had an impact on the end result) but what that...

    That's a fucking great result. Sorry for the use of language but that kind of rating is usually only reserved for Tahs and Reds games when they are looking the goods. And it was a pretty good game to boot.

    Proposed Nations Championship

    It's certainly a better model. But I'm still not a fan of shoehorning the RC and 6N's into the structure as it still offers the same issues as previously regarding pro/rel and the 6N Unions. Even though there's a circuit breaker in the form of the pro/rel game I can see an all holy stink being...

    Proposed Nations Championship

    That's what caught me off guard. Generally speaking they've been making a lot of good decisions and progressed the game in many positive ways so to even in passing suggest that model was jarring.

    Proposed Nations Championship

    The guys I've talked to are well aware of the cynicism involved but they still see the opportunity in it.
