Barty getting into the open final would pull 3M plus, (Hewitt did 4 but TV audiences have decayed since 2005), but it's all about that times the probability of her making the final, which she's struggled to get to in the past. At $41 that is absolutely worth a punt though, because it will be the...

Can I also take an egregious double post to point out that some league fans are getting itchy. It feels like years since we’ve heard the constant agitated talk of rah rah and leather patches and rugby yawnion. They’ve come out of their lairs and I think it’s because we’ve actually beaten them a...

Game rated 691,000 when you include the regionals. That is easily the best TV ratings for a wallabies game since the 2011 World Cup based off my odd knowledge of ratings. It goes to show the key is exposing the game to casual viewers on either 7 or 9 - 10’s market share is toilet tier.

Rated slightly under 500k on 9. Pretty impressive, that’s more than many bledisloe cup games in recent years

What an absolute disgrace. Send the Wehrmacht in, it’ll be over in 6 weeks

I can elaborate later, but it is absolutely in Australia’s National interest to be funding pacific island countries right now given China is trying to push them into its sphere of influence. We spend 1.4B alone in the pacific, a few mill for their footy team is literally the salt and pepper of...

Hopefully Fiji also fall into our sphere of influence and get some more votes aligned with us at World Rugby

Can I charge a policy fee to Rugby AU for this?

Not sure if this is the thread for it, but has to be a huge congrats to Nic Berry on being appointed to the first test match of BIL v South Africa. Nic is a great ref despite some of the nonsense randomly thrown aroundd, he makes good decisions, polices the offside line well and is a deserved...

Great to see Nick McArdle hosting sports sunday on 9. Well deserved for a stalwart professional of the industry

That penalty was an embarassment and a strike at the legitimacy of the crusaders win if they win here. Incredibly home town decision

We’ve all been there

The tactical kicking wasn’t great but he looked good with ball in hand. It wasn’t the worst tactical kicking ive seen. Perhaps the previous poster had a high blood alcohol content and was feeling particularly disappointed

A silver lining has to be Hegarty at 10. I thought he took on the line well and looked decent on attack

I guess it will all come down to whether the NZ teams adapt to fiercely contested rucks, and slightly slower ball versus the Australian teams adapting to better ball movement, more offloads and use of the ball

Reds to be trailing by 10 at half time and win by 20

Would love to see some great Cadbury cross promotion. Something like the old bundagberg rum ads which were fantastic would be great. I'm told they got pitched to do them again a couple of years ago but refused because they were worried about backlash... sad really. My brother is in Ad land and...

NewsCorp is also the king of misinformation on stuff like this, they continually put out info about their tabloid papers surging ahead at the same time as they were having double digit declines in circulation and nowhere near replacing them with online subs... Also, would love to know how many...

He does have a point about Stan though. Nine only releases viewer numbers to its aligned papers, we have no way of confirming them. About 100,000 watched the final on Stan. If I was an executive and it was 89,000 I’d say our rounding policy is the nearest 100,000... Stan and Kayo are opaque

I think all 5 Australian teams are massively undervalued for what they should be this weekend. Reds Highlanders - Reds bench looks very strong, highlanders without frizzel, no skudder - should be even money but Reds somehow at 4.05??? brain dead odds Tahs Hurricanes - $13.50 - clearly the...
