Fact 1: One W-League match has been broadcast LIVE every week on ABC TV for the past 3 years and attracts an average FTA TV ratings of 90k.

It would be reasonable to assume the A-League on FTA TV would attract ratings HIGHER THAN the W-League.

How much higher?

Fact 2: The W-League attracts LIVE crowds of less than 1k.

Fact 3: After 6 seasons, the average A-League crowds are 11.5k

Fact 4: For the past 6 seasons, the average NRL crowd is around 16k ...

... So, the live audience for A-League is 30% less than the live audience for NRL.

Fact 5: FTA TV ratings for NRL home & away matches is around 530k

It would be reasonable to speculate that FTA TV ratings for a LIVE Home & Away A-League match on FTA TV on a Saturday night could be 300-350k (40% less than average NRL FTA TV ratings and 3-4 times higher than W-League FTA TV ratings).

If the A-League attracted FTA TV ratings of around 300-350k on a Saturday, this would be around the Top 20 for a FTA TV show on Saturday.
