On a very big night for sport, Nine secured a massive +40% share, its Friday result of the year including a +7% result for 9Gem for the multichannel’s highest share of the year. Seven still did well to reach almost 30% but it was its lowest Friday share since the start of the AFL season. ABC’s share was it lowest Friday of the year and it was 10’s second lowest while SBS was on par with recent results.

It was the Ashes First Test that delivered for Nine, ranking in the top 5. Main channel coverage in AFL states saw session one of the cricket outrate AFL in all markets while 9Gem coverage in Sydney and Brisbane was outrated by NRL (a Golden Point finish may see the NRL number adjusted). Session 2 of the Ashes also did well to make the top 10. This afternoon will reveal the number watching on 9Now.

Seven’s Better Homes and Gardens was the top prime time entertainment show but Friday Night AFL was well down to its lowest number for the season.

Despite ABC’s share being lower, ABC News and Gardening Australia numbers were largely unaffected while for 10, it was the second consecutive Friday without a top 20 entry.

Start of Nine’s six-day winning streak I think (assuming the first Ashes test goes for all five days, plus State of Origin game two next Wednesday).

Not helped by the match being shown on 7mate in both Sydney and Brisbane, and the absence of stars like Daniel Rich and Lance Franklin.

Very good numbers for the Ashes on a Friday night. In Perth, it outrated Adelaide, Brisbane and almost the SYdney market.
The AFL match between the Lions and swans rated very low in Sydney and Brisbane Markets and was comprehensively smashed by the NRL. How?

5

Totally expected result though. A close game in the NRL featuring a Queensland and NSW team.

What surprised me was that the AFL seemed to lose more viewers to the cricket than what the NRL did.

Perhaps a combination of main channel cricket coverage in AFL states and that the AFL game didnt include any team from VIC, SA or WA.

It will be longer than that.
Like I’ve said previously 9 will now win many weeks in a row, as they did the last time they had The Ashes, and probably go on to win the year.
The 5 tests cross over more than 5 weeks, with enough nights in any week to probably push them to weekly wins.

Deja vu of last week but this time tables turned, with Nine seeing huge and rare share for them (outside SOO / NRL GF) especially for a Friday, as the anticipated Ashes series got underway and should dictate much of the FTA landscape for a bit. Though numbers noticeably 2023-esque vs 2019 and previous series.

Nine’s Ashes on par with Seven’s WTC final last week (in fact a bit lower in terms of share and national audience - but like the latter winning its timeslot in every market last week cricket/AFL Nine achieved the same last night cricket/NRL).

It appears audience dropped off into the evening however, certainly eveident by “lunch” and “S2” although probably higher than if a working night (being a Friday night), perhaps saw some in AFL markets switch back to Seven’s AFL - which as noted by TVCynic still performed for Seven and pretty close all 3 especially Adelaide despite two teams from non-traditional areas (bad timing as the AFL would’ve hoped for 60k give or take in Sydney and Brisbane and was a decent contest if not for Ashes combined with NRL and also saw core market Melbourne and Adelaide & Perth tumble as a result of the competition).

BH&G (adding 7Two Adelaide would’ve been one of its better numbers and certainly in Melbourne - unfortunate timing again ranking wise with Ashes) and Gardening also held up well for Seven and the ABC despite the big competitive night again.

Don’t forget the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia

Can someone help me out here

Was the Ashes on the Nine main channel in any cap city markets last night or was it just on GEM everywhere

It is on Nine tonight in Sydney

12

Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth had it in the main channel. NRL was on GEM.

Breakfast tv? Keen to know the Brisbane results

Today Show back on top in Brisbane yesterday with a considerable win, according to a tweet I saw this morning.

Thank you

This will be semi-controversial - but I don’t think it will rate anything spectacular, possibly outside of the Matildas games. A shared broadcast arrangement won’t help either.

Oh, I was thinking it’d (arguably) be the biggest sport event this year, Matildas games naturally. Sure it won’t be on the men’s level and unless semi or final for example probably no mega audiences. And yeah non-exclusive doesn’t help especially streaming wise. But I’d been getting the feel it probably would be, nationally speaking and band wagoners and getting behind the green and gold internationally (and especially seeing as we’re hosts) in a year devoid of Olympics/ Winter Olympics/Comm Games.

How about totally expected - it’s AFL…
I know the usual few think the sunshine shines out of the arse of AFL…

its AFL… IT ONLY RATES IN MELBOURNE!

NSW doesn’t like AFL
QLD doesn’t like AFL

The constant bewilderment that a Melbourne-only sport doesn’t rate in NSW or QLD makes for stupid reading…

hell, even nine’s coverage of NRL beat AFL nationally…
but the usual NRL smashing AFL on foxtel continues…

but -Cricket - the only National sport - wiped the floor with both sports.

lets see what will happen tonight…

oh I know…

Foxtel
NRL will beat AFL…

Seven
AFL will win in Melbourne, and rate badly everywhere else.

Nine
No NRL - but Cricket will wipe the floor of both sports…

but - will be nice to read the usual people fuddling their brows - wondering why AFL was beaten in the ratings - and why it rated shit in Sydney and Brisbane…

22

If you did your reading carefully you’d find that it didn’t.

I know you have a hard on for NRL and against AFL but to say only Melbourne gives a damn about AFL is a ridiculous assertion. As for your statement about AFL not being popular in NSW/QLD, you could easily state the same for NRL anywhere south and west of NSW.

As for why the Ashes wiped the floor, well it’s the Ashes. Enough said.
