The 2025 AFL Brownlow Medal ceremony ranked second in Monday’s ratings, just behind Seven News with 1.45 million. That followed the Red Carpet coverage that averaged 879k. Both results were up on the previous year’s numbers where the Brownlow telecast had 1.355 million while 843k tuned in for the Red Carpet.
