Queensland’s big win in game two of this year’s State of Origin scored Nine another huge audience of 4.294m, the highest Origin rating ever recorded. That was up 300k on Game 1 that had 3.995m three weeks ago.

That makes the coverage the new number one program of the year while the Pre-game coverage had 2.188m and the Post game 1.604m. Last year numbers were 3.751m for Game 2, 1.942m Pre-match and 1.470m Post-match.

Over on Seven, SAS: AUS v ENG had its season 8 final that had 293k. The franchise has generally underperformed and has been Seven’s weakest 7.30 offering over several weeks averaging approximately 415k. The Front Bar followed with 379k.

Home and Away had earlier posted the best entertainment ratings with 920k. MasterChef’s immunity challenge held up well to average 535k for 10 with ABC’s night featuring Gruen with 573k.

Nearly 4.3m viewers for the State of Origin is huge. Nine would be very happy with those numbers.

10’s MasterChef did alright against the competition. However, Seven’s final of SAS failed to make a good impression.

The World Cup numbers for during the day dis well too. The 10.30am matches have been the highest pver the last few days.

ABC’s National Press Club made a rare entry into the top 30. To see Pauline Hanson’s maiden speech there.

A new BVOD record for SOO game two last night.

Underwhelming ratings for SAS. Can’t see it return next year.

State of Origin II at the MCG has set a new record as the highest rating Origin game in history, shown exclusively on Channel 9 and 9Now, proving the 9Network is the market leader in delivering nation-stopping sporting events once again.

An overnight reach of over 6 million, a Total TV audience (Linear and streaming) of 4.294 million and a new streaming record of 1.7 million was set within Nine’s unrivalled cross-platform ecosystem, laid a new benchmark, as the series now goes to a deciding game 3 in Brisbane.

Amanda Laing, Managing Director Streaming & Broadcast, Nine, said:

“State of Origin remains the benchmark for live sport in Australia, and last night’s audience performance demonstrates the enduring strength of rugby league as one of the nation’s most powerful sporting and cultural forces.

“A record crowd in Melbourne alongside outstanding audiences across the 9Network and 9Now reflects the incredible momentum behind the game and its ability to bring Australians together through moments that genuinely capture the national conversation.

“As the home of rugby league, Nine is proud to help grow the game through the combined strength of our broadcast, streaming, digital and publishing platforms. Together, we are building deeper fan connections, reaching new audiences and bringing the stories, rivalries and moments that define rugby league to more Australians than ever before.”

A pity there’s no Foxtel ratings anymore - it would be interesting to see how many tuned in to Sky’s coverage of Pauline’s Press Club speech

Nine won every market with the following shares:
Sydney 65.2%
Melbourne 36.4%
Brisbane 72.3%
Adelaide 35.3%
Perth 31.7%

As a lead in to SOO, 9News did well with another plus one million result. Note that 9News was at 5pm in Perth and tipping Point was at 3pm.

Despite the Perth timeslot, Tipping Point had an easy win. The Melbourne audience was a 2026 high.

Another poor result for Today.

You have to go back a long was to find State of Origin ratings over 4 million.

These are the numbers I have (though there may be some debate about the exact numbers).

2012 Game 3 4.04m
2013 Game 4 4.19m
2014 Game 1 4.06m
2014 Game 2 4.16m

Those ratings were combined metro and regional ratings so not exactly comparable to the current system that includes regional areas that weren’t previously included and of course BVOD viewing.
