NSW’s win in Game One of the 2026 State Of Origin delivered a huge 3.995m average rating for Nine to be the number one show of the year so far.

The result was the third Origin Game One under VOZ ratings with the 2025 Game One averaging 3.755 million viewers after 2024 had 3.436m.

The result puts it as the highest rating SOO game since State of Origin II 2014.

The Pre Match coverage had 2.206m (2.05m in 2025) and the Post-Match segment had 1.778m (1.19m last year).

Seven’s Home and Away was the biggest entertainment show of the day with 902k.
MasterChef was next best in prime time with 592k to be ahead of ABC’s Gruen that had 524k and SAS: AUS v ENG with just 291k.

Later, The Front Bar had 427k up against Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee with 303k and Elsbeth on 204k.

Seven News had a narrow 30k win at 6pm. Earlier The Chase topped 800k for the first time since the start of Tipping Point Tipping Point did not air at its usual time in Perth). Millionaire Hot Seat had its highest rating since the opening episode.

Sunrise with 437k was 100k ahead of Today with 323k while News Breakfast was another 100k back with 238k.

Could crack 4m in consolidated numbers which would be only behind 2014 decider as highest rating origin game ever.

Absolute non-surprise given how the game unfolded.

Very strong viewership given how terrible Nine’s selected OOP went.

Nearly 4 million overnight audience for SOO opener. Massive. I think the BVOD audience is a new record too.

The regular shows on other networks obviously took a hit, especially SAS which dropped to a season low.

STATE OF ORIGIN I THE HIGHEST IN VOZ RATING HISTORY ON CHANNEL 9 AND 9NOW SMASHING RATINGS RECORDS

State of Origin exclusive on Channel 9 and 9Now delivered unrivaled engagement on a record-breaking night. Nine is the only media business in Australia capable of delivering an audience of this scale. Thanks to Nine’s powerhouse network and unmatched cross platform marketing engine, it wasn’t just a game broadcast, it was amplified into a historic, nation-stopping event.

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

"Nine is the home of Rugby League, and last night’s State of Origin audience demonstrates the unmatched power of Nine’s connected live sport ecosystem to deliver truly national moments at scale.

“The record-breaking streaming audience on 9Now, alongside strong Total TV growth year-on-year, reflects the continued evolution of audience behaviour and the growing demand for premium live sport experiences across every screen and every platform. Importantly, it reinforces the strength of Nine’s Total TV strategy, combining the scale of mass audiences with the accessibility and engagement of streaming to maximise reach, fandom and commercial impact around Australia’s biggest sporting moments.”
