love the out cry.
It's the time slot! It's the time slot!!
That's why the grand final drew such a low TV audience.

Or maybe because no one gives a *smile* about Geeelong and Sydney.

But according to ‘research’ Sydney are the most popular team ever.
 
You think more did about Melbourne v Bulldogs though? Has to be time slot.
That game was still in the balance until late in The third quarter. Dogs were three goals up halfway through the third so the finishing margin was crazy

The way I see it - whatever the two teams might be in any Grand Final - the highest TV audience would be for a night game. Next best would be a twilight game and lowest for the day game.

Now the TV audience should never be the sole basis for changing - but it has to be a factor. In particular I hate seeing the Rugby League GF audience being higher than the AFL as it distorts the true following of the two sports and then probably to some extent affects the TV contracts earned by each.

FWIW - I’d take a twilight GF in a heartbeat.
