Well what would you expect ? Collingwood weren't playing. Sesame Street out rates it if we aren't there. :p

I saw the game and thought it was the best I have ever seen.

I was disgusted at the booing and other behaviour, I don't care what they do "over there" - let's leave it there and show them what a true sports nation behaves like.

If soccer crowds here want riot police, wire mesh cages and crowd scanning cameras by the dozen then let's just ban the sport now. No wait a minute, just ban the crowds.

Anyway, well done Oz! Now treat the losers well, they played well and hard.

Now I find the fact that you find that interesting, well, interesting.

Since there are only a dozen or so AFL teams in the world, and it's just about the most regionally confined game this side of Toss the Fish in Outer Fondu, I would have thought the ABC test pattern would have rated higher than the AFL grand final.

OH! Of course, you were talking about ratings in Victoria, and it's southern sub-state!

Fair enough!

:D :D :D

I managed to wrestle the tv off the kids for a couple of hours and watch it. Seeing their faces as I held my head and whinged during some moments and then me going completely off towards the end was entertainment enough.

fantastic stuff :)

Now now Midge, the AFL GF rated pretty well in Sydney this year.

Did you hear that "we" won? :D

Lets break down these results for the sake of sbs sports .
sofar 18 people watched
2 watched something else
7 did better things in the woodshop
4 saw bits and pieces

so to make it easy 18 in 20 television viewers watched my sisters television show


Well done BJ !!! with ratings like this you can affort to get a tradesman to replace the lino in your kitchen


Rick


Proud father and a proud brother ( no Tasmanian jokes pleeeeeeeease )

What position was your sister playing? :confused:

The Soccer ratings were the same as for Dancing with the Stars? Nuff said....

An AFL final with Eagles and Swans, no wonder no one was watching...........

Too each his own though.

She plays right back - behind Lucas O'Neill...

Te he he he

Thanks Rick, also of note over 8.5 million watched in pubs and clubs around the country..
