What were the figures for melbourne. Had a few mates watching it down there so given the lack of sport and spurts mad melvourne I am guessing ratings were up on averages?

[leeroy*NRL*]

Game was only on FOX so no cities / metro or regional figures..

Storm do rate well on FOX

[Fred]

Well I’m guessing it would have rated well or better at least on Melbourne .

Ratings through the roof: NRL draws 4.5 million TV audience

With rugby league resuming in round three, Fox Sports attracted approximately 2,276,000 sets of eyeballs as it broadcast the entire week's action.

Channel Nine's three free-to-air matches drew a combined audience of 2,214,336.

Thursday's Broncos-Eels game remarkably also set viewership records in New Zealand despite not kicking off until around 10pm in the Kiwi time zone

Thursday night bombed for Channel 9 too.

Last Night saw a big turn around in ratings fortunes from last Thursday with Nine slipping from first to third as a one-sided NRL match failed to perform well for the network.

Over on Seven, the return of The Front Bar helped boost the network to number one while 10 saw its network share lift by almost 3 points.

Leading the entertainment shows was MasterChef up slightly on the previous week. The show outperformed the NRL this week in Sydney and Brisbane.

Engaging with the tv audience is vital. It appears the NRL has a lot more work to do in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

How engaged are viewers?

By considering the reach of a telecast (the cumulative number of unique viewers who have seen at least one minute of the program), it is possible to calculate the loyalty of an audience. When we look at this for the grand finals, there are significant differences between the codes and across markets.

The AFL appears to have a clear advantage in keeping its fans engaged. The average metropolitan viewer watched 102 of the 160 minute game telecast (64%) while the average NRL viewer watched 67 of the 120 minute game telecast (56%).

These differences however become much larger for the NRL across markets. In Sydney and Brisbane, viewers watched an average 64% of the telecast compared to only 44% in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Therefore, the NRL not only has a smaller audience in these markets overall, but also a less engaged audience.
