10 had its best week of the year thanks to its coverage of the Asian Cup. Saturday’s final pushed the network to its highest share under the new VOZ ratings system and before that to the BBL final of 2021.

10 was up 1.5 on the previous week with ABC also posting a small gain. Nine won overall helped by its near 40% BVOD share but was down 1.5 with Seven and SBS slightly lower week-on-week.

Nine’s win included Married at First Sight that again topped all tables.

Seven did well with the top news bulletin for every day of the week while Home and Away was the top scripted series of the week as Australian Idol’s three episodes made the top 30.

The return of The Piano was ABC’s top entertainment show.

The Asian Cup was the top football code with Friday Night NRL just ahead of Thursday Night NRL. Next best for 10 was Gogglebox in 41st place.
