ssuming those Sky stats are correct, on a per capita basis that would be 55K viewers in Aus for a game. Which doesn't take into account time zone difficulties of watching Phoenix away games (ie Perth).
Here are the rating in Aus for the latest round for comparison.
#ALeague TV ratings catchup Round 15 #SBS2: #MVCvBRI 55k #FoxSports: #MVCvBRI 42k #ADLvCCM 62k #SydneyDerby 104k #PERvMCY 44k #NEWvWEL 40k

What should metrics for FOX is that we are only 2K less than MVCvBri, 4k less than PERvManCity. They would love to show only Sydney derby's, not going to happen.
Maybe it is not really our problem if they can't sell the product. A top cracker game like Victory vs Roar and only 42K viewers?
