tweeted it to Rod Kafer
Thanks man..
Seeing him roll over like that really killed me..
Dropped onto GAGR also.
Very good points and very politely put! I can tell you my discussion with rod kafer at the television was a lot less calm and polite. I also respected him!! And if you going to go With stupid graphs where is the biggest elephant in the room the financials to the force and Rebels?!
On Facebook!
2/3rd of the way though the show, the good woman looked at me across the couch and said "Are you all right love"?
There's actually a bunch of things I'd have likes to raise. But it was already 9 minutes long..
I think the nurturing of local talent is the biggest single looser in this, so that's what i went with..
I noticed a catch in your voice when you talked about respecting Kafer before the graph incident.
Was it a little bit of vomit?
Not having Fox, I can only speculate at the actual content of the video, but I've gathered that Kafer presented some graphs showing declining attendances for the Force and the Rebels.. I assume they looked something like this

I did some research to make that, Wikipedia has details of all matches (at least I found from 2011 on, which suits my purposes perfectly) It was pretty obfuscated, but I managed to process out everything but the crowd figures and thought it would be cool to show the graph that Mr Kafer SHOULD have presented, the one with ALL Aussie teams represented. That one is here

As you can see, Mr Kafer, who shall henceforth be known as the ARU's hand puppet missed some very important trends.
The Brumbies crowd figures match the Force and the Rebels figures pretty bloody well. Considering the Brums are regularly in finals, I would suggest that numbers aren't going to get much better for them.
The Reds crowd figures are by far the most volatile (perhaps because their performance is similarly volatile, but if you want to see where the cause of the drop in ticket receipts, I would be looking northward.
The Tahs do draw a consistently larger crowd than anybody except Queensland (when they aren't sucking) but they have dropped at a higher rate than the others too.
In short Mr Kafer, by attempting to cover up the true reasoning (or lack thereof) in killing off the Force, you have only prompted somebody with a grudge and the Internet to prove that you are as spineless a liar as Cameron Clyne et al.
Edit the post, reselect attachment from the top and drag it to "Inline" below. Save and Exit (or Update or whatever it says)
Edit: For those that don't have Fox, here is the segment:

Just watching that now and can't wait until the end before I start screaming,
Why the fuck did Kafer not show all the crowd figures? He certainly saw fit to show all the WInning percentage figures
Asshole
