AFL & NRL Footy TV Ratings - 2026

[leeroy*NRL*]

Without Fox ratings it’s hard to know - particularly with greater limited coverage on FTA for AFL. These FTA ratings are just that FTA - do they include streaming on 7? As that is another newish factor.

YES all figures include STREAMING BVOD on CH7 and CH9

you said the same thing last season Freddy... ??
and i stated NRL were dominating AFL in Streaming and Fox
with the figures which we had on hand.. I was proven correct and even gave AFL a higher percentage for the sake of the argument.

again there is no reason why the NRL would not be exceeding AFL by a great margin like it always has since FOX first came to Australia.

Yep that is right>> FOX has won the ratings on FOX every year since its inception.

214k for the Soccer Grand Final>>> that is a very low figure for a Final on Saturday Night on FTA with no other sport on FTA

NZ figure would be interesting..
