AFL TV Ratings down 17 %

Massive drop in viewers so far this season, Fridays and the shambolic Thursdays taking big hits..

Big Vic clubs are not pulling the viewers.

Not surprising as the AFL really has become a neutral non-friendly sport.

Fairly simple explanation i thought. Look at which teams have dominated friday night slot. Most games have been crabs v crabs. Tonight is a perfect example. I won’t be watching it because it’ more than likely that swans will flog carlcheat. I reckon they thought people would watch friday night footy no matter who played…dickheads. Time to put in some floating games and spruce the time slot up. Do that and people will come back.

Five of the next 6 friday night games are OK then 4 of the next 5 are crap.. Last game should be OK.

I guess Basil must be scheduled to spend the night boring us shitless and telling dad-jokes for those 5 crap games.
