The Block helps Nine edge ahead of Seven in weekly ratings battle
A close race in the weekly ratings battle between Australia’s two largest commercial free-to-air channels, Seven and Nine, came down to a 0.2 point difference in audience share this week.
Nine’s primary channel finished the week with 20.8%, only marginally ahead of Seven’s 20.6%. Thanks to the AFL finals ramping up – and thus the strong performance of Seven’s multi-channel 7mate – Seven won the network battle with 31.4%, compared to Nine Network’s 28.5%.
Season 14 of The Block continues to bring in viewers for Nine
