[melbcityguy]

They broadcast the VFL, holy shit half a million people watch VFL on tv?????

Sure they know the difference mate, There is NOBODY at the grounds .... yet... if they keep on broadcasting on Saturday and getting 1/2 million viewers.. it will be a national second division in no time

SEVEN’S AFL: SATURDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL Seven 567,000
SEVEN’S HORSE RACING 2025 Seven 173,000
PEPPA PIG ABC KIDS PM 67,000
FOOTBALL: ISUZU UTE A-LEAGUE 10 53,000

53,000 people watching Australia's most unexciting and let's face it pointless sporting league is pretty good I reckon.

You couldn't pay me to watch it.

Are you lost?

I just think that the A-League doesn't make great TV and that if 53,000 hardy souls have tuned in then that's pretty good....

That's great mate but I think you should invest in a diary.

I don't think any semi final will be shown on Ch10 this week.

Saturday game is on 10 Bold / 10 Play.
Not sure about 2nd Leg, but based on the kick-off times, I'd assume the MC v WU game will be on FTA next week.

Their job is to broadcast the games.

They have the perfect vehicle "Have you been paying attention?" to which the resounding answer is of course ....... no

Not as simple as that.
They can only operate within the budget, which would be pretty low. Producing more shows is expensive and completely out of budget.
They already advertise on 10, problem is nobody watches 10, therefore no one notices.
Cross promotion is not as simple as it sounds. It still needs to make sense for the viewers.
That being said, I agree that Paramount/10 probably hasn't been great, however I don't think it's because the broadcaster is bad.

In the internet days, all of the above is redundant.

Podcasts are now A league shows.

As for the rest, you are only the push of a button away from what you need to know.

If you go to the UK, apart from self-promotion on Sky and the other streaming and satellite platforms, you will see zero advertising on the FTA channels.

If you are interested in the sport, then you will know when it is on.

Exactly.
Plenty of people are familiar with the A-League (and NPL).
Plenty of people either don't care or have lost interest.
No amount of marketing is going to change that.

But what's the point of advertising anything? Why do Apple advertise when everyone knows about a iPhone

Out of sight out of mind
