Another big winning margin for Nine on Thursday, 14 clear of Seven in main channel and network shares and up 12 on the previous week. That saw all other networks lose share from the previous Thursday. Without BBL in the schedule, Seven lost five to a nine-week Thursday low, ABC and SBS dropped three each and 10 lost two.

The Night 2 session of the Australian Open was the top rated segment but at 550,000 was down on the previous three nights that had all topped 600k. However, the Night session that was second was the highest second-ranked entry of the tournament so far. The Late session also delivered some good numbers for Nine while part of 9Gem’s coverage topped the multichannels.

For Seven, the third session of play in the cricket was up slightly on the previous day to be the network’s top non-news entry. In prime time Home and Away was also up slightly while Animals Abroad with Dr Harry managed 226,000.

Earlier Seven News had a 100k win at 6pm winning all markets except Melbourne where Nine was +70k ahead for another big win.

ABC’s new Grand Designs Transformations lost ground against the competition to slip below 300k for the first time while Island of the Pacific was down almost 30k week-on-week.

For 10, news was the only top 20 entry as Gladiators lost more audience to a series low dropping 30k from Wednesday and out of the top 20.

Meanwhile Sunrise and Today both made the top 20.

Great night for Nine thanks to the tennis and 9News Melbourne.

10 had a poor night with the Asian Cup match between Syria and Australia missing the top 20 as well.

The Medvedev-Russuvuori match didn’t finish until 3.40am AEDT today, so the late session numbers will definitely need to be revised.

I think 9Gem’s “Late” tennis coding reflects when James Bracey interrupted the main channel feed, to inform viewers of the incredible 20+ a piece final set tiebreak on that other channel and viewers flicked over (as well as Tomljanovic losing the first set 6-0 on Channel 9), plus any who were already glued to it on Gem.

Also, main channel “S2” and “Late” would’ve been helped by Kokkinakis and Tomljanovic’s comebacks, each managing to take a set, drawing back/holding viewers. Perth numbers seemed up, probably good timing there for the aforementioned, looked to be on par or outperform Adelaide and even Brisbane.

Massive night tonight with aussies de Minaur and Hunter’s R3 clashes, as well as being a Friday where competition is usually next to nothing (bar BBL finals on Seven/Fox), same for tomorrow (except without aussies), will see a big finish to Nine’s week 1 AO.

On Fridays and Saturdays during the Aus Open, naturally, late night ratings usually go up/are sustained, as most don’t have work the next day and many actually like this time of year (preferably the more warm and humid nights) staying up to enjoy, such as on holidays at a caravan parks outside maybe streaming with a cold beer

It was on 10 last night.

12

And these people in caravan parks have ratings boxes?

To be fair Sully did say streaming which would be counted for the bvod numbers

Ok, true. Yeah this is why there should always be an asterisk (OOH viewing), always more than officially reported, especially major sport

How dare you gatekeep where I watch my content - If I want to watch the Tennis while on the can, it should count no differently then if I was watching on my couch or from the local Big 4 Caravan Park

Rough, back of the envelope calculation, but it kinda goes to show how the simulcast cricket deal has damaged the perception of cricket’s popularity, combined Fox and 7 figures for session 3 of the Test are comparable or more than the average figures for the night session of the tennis. This doesn’t contain streaming numbers, but CA’s stupid deal is partly to blame for how cricket is being marketed currently.

Cricket is destroying itself with this rights deal. It will continue until 2031. The prestige of the sport is lost without exclusivity to one media company.

I swear Breakfast TV was rating in the 300s for both not that long ago. Really have faded away. They both became too sensationalist for me so I switched off at least a decade ago.

Although on 10 Bold in a number of time zones; they didn’t move Gladiators off mainline Ten in those places. Certainly not ABC2 though, no :slight_smile:

I agree with your last bit, although I’d probably be waiting until school holidays finish before making too big a judgement (besides QLD, that is still a week or more away).

Some of the early coding might also be being affected slightly by increased work-from-home I imagine, people not having to be up at 5.30, 6am necessarily to watch them before their commute.
