The twilight Grandfinal

[Dan]

I saw some stats on the ratings of the grand final on LU.

It looks like it ranked extremely highly and well, it's got to be tough now for Gallop to take it back to the late kick off, this showed the fans want the earlier final and it didn't change ratings one single bit!


What are your thoughts on the earlier game?

 

[Jethro]

It's a great idea

Melbourne;s ratings were WAY down....but in saying that....who the f*ck are Melbourne?

If the starting time of the Grand Final is going to start being dictated by the TV ratings in Melbourne, I'll give it away.

Would the AFL Grand Final time be changed to suit the Brisbane TV audience?

And I'll bet Melbourne's ratings were great for the first 50 minutes and diabolical for the final 30.

BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA

At the game I thought it was great.

But you won't hear me say a bad word about any part of yesterday.

Twilight is much better than night.

Funnily enough the AFL ratings were lower this year as Brisbane and Sydney figures were low. When either the Lions or Swans are involved, they tend to be at record level. Even last year in Melbourne, the League GF ratings were only fair, indicating that there is only passing interest. No way should Melbourne be used as a barometer.
