July 1, 2019 9:50

Seven has continued its Friday night winning streak with the broadcast of the AFL. The game between the Geelong Cats and the Adelaide Crows was the highest-rated, non-news program of the evening attracting 615,000 metro viewers across Seven in Melbourne and Adelaide, and 7Mate in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth. 319,000 viewers tuned in from Melbourne and 150,000 from Adelaide – only 23,000 viewers came from Sydney.

The AFL sat at the top of both key advertising demographics the 18 to 49s and the 25 to 54s. In the younger demographic, it was followed by the second half of Seven News – which airs as Today Tonight in some markets – and the first half of its news offering.

Seven News and Seven News/Today Tonight topped the metro viewer ratings, attracting 931,000 and 891,000 viewers respectively.
