International Rules vs International Rugby League

[Beaussie]

40,000 for the IR series in Perth
28,000 for the RL tri-nations series in Sydney

And rugby league fans say International Rules is a joke. Funny that when you consider the crowds.

International Rules has more going for it than International Rugby League in Australia.

Well, not only are the crowds much bigger for International Rules, it seems the series also attracts more TV viewers in Australia. =D> =D> =D>

The International Football averaged 891,000 viewers, mostly in Melbourne (481,000) and the League, 887,000. Most of that was sin Sydney 461,000 and Brisbane, 331,000.
