I think 7’s prime time was good yesterday. But again there was no NRL on 9.
It should also be noted that this is the first time since 2005 - 2006 that the Grand Final has achieved more than 4m viewers two years in a row (but across different systems). A rare occurrence.
All ‘interstate’ games when the Sydney Swans and West Coast Eagles faced off each of those years, both going down to the wire and with a win a piece.
Although, in some metrics, 2020 - 2021 came very close IIRC (but of course COVID lockdown affected including being held during prime time).

Do you have the 5 City Breakdown Rating Numbers for 7News & 9News to see how they compared to each other??
Also the AFL Grand Final Numbers!??
Please, Thank You!
I’m surprised we haven’t got it yet. We got it last year which was also a saturday.
Or maybe, with respect, you guys should STOP ASKING all the time and be grateful with the already generous data you’ve kindly been provided 
We’ve had a lot of change with OzTAM in recent years and already lost enough… The last thing we need is to lose more or God forbid, the lot.
A reminder industry, including networks and Nielsen TAM Australasia do monitor this site.

There’s nothing wrong with asking for the 5 city ratings split of the AFL grand final given historically we’ve always been given it and it’ll probably be the #1 rated program for the year. It’s not really the same as asking for the ratings split for a saturday night movie, isn’t it? We also only asked. Nothing wrong with asking for it.

Nothing wrong at all and everyone was polite about it too.

Exactly. Fair enough if there’s no data available, but it would be interesting to see how it did.

I disagree when it’s persistent and the same people too, especially with no response, probably for a reason.
I think the mods have been pretty clear about this in the past and given several warnings about it too, MS would have a tight agreement with OzTAM, with rules. TVCynic in turn has to be very careful with what is allowed to be published, etc.
Which is why when we get even more special data, tables during the week, it should be seen as a privilege and not asking for even more. IMO.

Media Spy won’t loose any data if people are asking a question. If the figures are posted illegally, then yes of course, but I’m pretty sure TVCynic knows what they’re doing.
Chill. There’s no danger here. Annoying, perhaps, but it’s a media nerd forum. People are going to be excited and want access to specific data etc.
If the mods are concerned they will step in and post a reminder.

If the 5-city breakdowns were available I would have posted them, so there is no need for multiple requests. As I’ve posted several times in the the last few weeks, there are no 5-city breakdowns provided on weekends.

9 News Brisbane ratings will be massive for Sunday night with the Broncos getting up in a nail biter which ended just before 6pm.
Absolutely.. & 9News Sydney will be So Massive too, even though the Panthers lost.

Probably because the match ended about 20mins after presentations were supposed to start.
@TV.Cynic do you know if there were big changes last year?
Yes - Presentations last year was marked down 180,000
