On a GLOBAL stage, Union is bigger than Leaguer. Get over it.......

If you can come back with some factual documented proof that this is not the case, then I look forward to discussing it with you, but as you won't, please refrain from trying to be clever......you're not.

Even you cant for one minute believe that the NRL will do more than the RWC when it comes to spectators etc! Even you cant be that clueless

The nrl in 1 season gets more spectators at the ground now, are you really that clueless?

I said over 4 years of the nrl compared to a wc thats comes around once every 4 years you dopey merkin. So if the NRL averages over 3 million per year, over four years, they'll have anywhere up to 15 million paying spectators.

Are you trying to tell me that the Vichy WC will get anywhere near that number once every four years?

Talk about thick.

Ohh, and ch9 got the rights for around 10 million $$$$

As long as you hark back to the good old days, your audience will get older and die.
RWC didn't exist in 1986.........now it is #3 in the world....you snooze...you lose. Adapt and survive......fail to prepare, prepare to fail....there are loads more I could roll out but I honestly think that you really are just bitter and the whole debate is passing you by.

Fark me, you're not even trying to cover your hard-on for Union any more.

3rd in the world....

Company line... 4.6 billion viewers ... stop it... stop it...

Unless you can find documented proof that says the "company line" is a lie, I suggest you tread carefully. As I have said, the figures quoted are used to generate revenue from advertisers and if you KNOW that they are wrong, I would suggest that you contact the Advertising Commission or whatever you have in Australia to tell them that people are being ripped off.
If on ther other hand, it is just an opinion that they are lies, please refrain from saying it. It just shows you up to be nothing more than a bitter keyboard warrior with a chip on his shoulder...

Now....must run. I have an attractive donkey to see to and my Union hard on is starting to hurt

Re: Wellington : Mon Apr 19, 2010 5:32 am  

the IRB multiply the real number of viewers by 4 for each game, then aggregate it so yes its a lie

how much are the company paying you to lie?

to compare, 40 million viewers then watch our origin series if you want to multiply it by 4.

and thats just 3 games.

Re: Wellington : Mon Apr 19, 2010 5:33 am  

for example the real figure for the union WC final is 22 million viewers in england!


in comparison a single game of origin gets 3.4 million viewers
