State of Origin game three cracks 2m metro viewers for Nine

2.002m metro viewers have tuned in to Nine to watch the NSW Blues conquer the Queensland Maroons in the final game of the 2019 State of Origin series. The pre-game coverage brought in 1.105m and 651,000 watched the post-match analysis.

That’s compared to 1.96m for game two which aired on a Sunday and 2.178m for game one on June 5. In 2018 just 1.7m metro viewers tuned in for game three after the series had already been decided in game two. Last year, 2.09m watched game two, and 2.353m for the first game.
