The Roosters became the first team in the NRL Grand Final after a win over the Dolphins in the First Preliminary Final. Nine’s audience of 1.312m was the top program for the night despite being down 160k from last year’s equivalent game that had 1.471m. Better Homes And Gardens produced a good result for Seven with 509k up on the previous week’s 446k with main channel coverage in four states. It was ahead of ABC’s Gardening Australia that had 481k to be also up 55k week-on-week. 10 had a rare night of sport featuring the Socceroos’ one-all draw with Brazil in the soccer friendly from Townsville. The coverage of the game just missed the top ten with almost 400k. Later ABC’s new drama Death Valley averaged 284k up on last week’s 265k while Seven’s movie A Few Good Men had 204k. Seven News was the number one 6pm news bulletin with 1.186m for a narrow lead over Nine News that had 1.157m. That followed Tipping Point’s win over The Chase (four markets) 735k to 430k. Sunrise from Melbourne won the breakfast TV battle with 454k to make the top ten and be well ahead of Today with 281k and News Breakfast with 214k. AFL Women’s Round 7 afternoon game featuring Carlton v Richmond had 81k while the primetime game between Melbourne and North Melbourne had 139k. ---

Nine’s NRL Preliminary Final did very well. A pretty good result too for 10’s Socceroos Friendly against Brazil. A rare sports night from them on a Friday night. Up on ratings last week (of Love It or List It, and HYBPA, repeats). ---
