Brisbane.

Seven chose to run the crucial Sun’s AFL game on 7Mate in Brisbane. Perhaps they were correct based on the numbers just 1,000 higher average than 10 News + The numbers would no doubt have been higher on the main channel. In the reach rankings the game was 17th, just below Freddy The Eighth.

What did the AFL do on 7mate in Perth? Could that be why news was down. The result was important to see who Fremantle hosts in their elimination final

TV.Cynic · August 28, 2025, 8:43am

An average 26,000 watched in Perth, not a lot, about the same who watched in Brisbane. Probably a higher number watching at the beginning than the end given the score.

Sully · August 28, 2025, 9:03am

Chase is just hanging on I think for Seven, at a passable level, wouldn’t want it to regularly hit 200k or more behind TP. No doubt being helped by regional and older viewers though. The commercial/financial side of things for both shows could be more telling.
