Both sports media wise will take anything that looks good when it comes into getting good figures for something on the otherside of the barassi line, but in reality QLD and NSW are not even remotely going to budge on following AFL over NRL and the same applies to the other side. Like the situation that happened this year at the SFS vs the SCG since both are next to each other, if you just look at it without context it looks like AFL is somehow winning the battle of Sydney but in reality you have a team in Sharks who are statistically the least followed team in NRL being moved away from their home stadium to Moore park a decent distance away playing a team based in a small city relative wise in Townsville based over 2000 kilometres away, it was a perfect scenario to get a tiny crowd for a finals game, Roosters literally get bigger crowds at SFS for regular home games during the season. If anything it's just a solid argument on Sharks not having the support worthy of being a NRL team, since they have a tiny fan base in a already saturated city for NRL clubs. [/QUOTE]
