All good, I saw it as confirmation of what I had been hoping before the full numbers came out.

Excellent to see their is life still in the game and opportunity to build it up. Obviously an audience out their waiting to see good competitive Aussie professional rugby.
We just need more product of the right standard and what RN highlights above is it: It is simple we get close contests, and oz sides winning and lastly quality rugby the fans will come back (and no we don't need to benchmark this against the ABs or NZ super rugby sides every time we play someone else)
As I keep advocating, a good AU domestic comp could thrive if we can let go of the old Super Rugby concept and construction. Something akin to the NRC but more towards a professional level. There is a still a place for our Super Rugby teams but they may need to be take a back seat to a new rugby construct or we add to them to build more teams.
SRAU and TT can be more of a European Rugby Champions Cup concept towards the the end or even better, mixed in through the year.

There was a rugby union game in Brisbane on Saturday night, Australia against a third-string French side. Aussie star Marika Koroibete was sent off for a collision so minor it wouldn’t have warranted even a penalty in the NRL’s Magic Round crackdown.
Plus, the game and the entire series was decided by a scrum penalty in the dying moments. So boring.
No wonder Nine lost the Saturday night ratings to Seven, 34.6 per cent to 27.6 per cent.

He is such a fluffybunny.One sided origin series. Two horse race in the nrl. Must be unusual for league journo Buzz Rothfield to see some competitive footy.
Roth field is just a old school league nob. Idiots like this are two cent journalistsOne sided origin series. Two horse race in the nrl. Must be unusual for league journo Buzz Rothfield to see some competitive footy.
Maybe Rothwell is just salivating of the superior spectacle of the kangaroos played the French national league side as given league has such a strong world game

Is it lost? Or did someone take a dump in it?France are trying to get the League World Cup
Brent Williams, Nine’s director of sport, said “Following on from an incredible Wimbledon campaign, we couldn’t have asked for a better Wallabies debut on both Nine & STAN Sport. A huge number of Australians were drawn to the series against France and they were rewarded with incredibly exciting, last minute finishes in all three matches. With more great rugby just around the corner, it’s a brilliant time to be a fan.”
Stan acting chief executive officer Martin Kugeler said: “We are extremely pleased to see another record number of viewers on Stan Sport for Saturday’s decider, which was the highest performing match of the series. This capped off a massive day for rugby on Stan, with our exclusive coverage of matches between All Blacks and Fiji as well as Tonga and Samoa also being very popular. We have no doubt these numbers will only increase further with the highly anticipated Bledisloe Cup and The Rugby Championship series coming up on Stan Sport.”
