And what about Aussie TV audience?

It would be interesting to see this. They might not have even known the game was on.

I was in Melbourne back in August, a couple weeks before the season started, and was talking college football with the locals. That's when I first learned that "a couple of our boys are kickers over there." Intrigued, I asked what team/teams they were on. And they had no idea.

All they cared about over there was Aussie rules football. Not soccer, not rugby, not cricket. The AFL was the end all, be all of that country.
