AFL & NRL Footy TV Ratings - 2026

[Terry]

His expert opinion seems to defer with Oztam and Seven. Oh And Nine who incidentally put this out in their marketing to brands.

Each week the NRL on Nine draws in a passionate audience of footy fans – 13.4 million Aussies have tuned in to the 2026 season to date, up +6.2% YoY, while the NRLW Premiership has already reached 4.1 million viewers, with BVOD viewership up +37% YoY.

Now, as the scramble for the top eight reaches its peak, all eyes turn to the Finals – four massive weeks of action, kicking off in September with Nine’s best-in-class coverage and leading innovation.

As home to the NRL Finals, Nine offers unmatched scale for brands. Last year’s Finals Series reached 10.2 million Aussies, up +33% YoY, and the average audience of NRL viewers surged by 167% during the Finals compared to the regular season./quote]

Come on sooks. Cherry picking is easy pal. That's why you do it. Every serious person knows reach don't count. Your activism is admirable but wrong in fact.

Go well sooks.

I no longer care to engage rugby league supporters of any kind. You arent interested in genuine discussions and I couldnt give a fuck what you think about my data productions anymore - even though it follows the standard Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon data releases, you lot see conspiracies where none exist and i will not continue to justify my positions further.

Go to hell.

Personally, I love your dedication to sharing with us your very detailed data and analysis Wookie.

Weirdly, I’ve noticed NRL fans always take pot shots at you online. I guess they don’t like the reality

I'm very sorry you feel this way sooks. However you are of course wrong on every point. No one has any problem with your hard factual data. It is the faulty opinion and analysis you attach to it that brings you into disrepute.

Unfortunately you are unable and incapable of balanced objective comment. Throw in a volcanic temper and here we are.

If this is to be our final correspondence I wish you well and bear no ill will toward you. Code warriors have to code warrior.

All the best sooks.

However you are of course wrong on every point.

You literally lack any credibility to say this.

Unfortunately you are unable and incapable of balanced objective comment.

Geez, I thought you were finished here sooks. Thats the shortest banishment I've ever seen lolololololol.

As to your points - my credibility is not at issue pal. I used TV broadcast expert Rob McKnight to question your theories and assumptions. Simple stuff.

And even though you are an angry vindictive man I only wish the best for you sooks. Hopefully you can sort yaself out and we can converse with mutual respect and regard.

Have a great day.
