i went back to 2024,comparing the thursday,friday ratings battles between 9\u2019s nrl and 7\u2019s afl games.in 2024 it was 9-1 in favor of 7\u2026so far this year,i have it as 8-2 in favor of 9.so,i\u2019ve convinced myself there\u2019s been a shift,regardless of the competitiveness,or particular matchup on any one day.what i don\u2019t know is why it\u2019s happened.we keep close tabs on 9v7 in regards to the news,tipping point v chase,sunrise v today,but i haven\u2019t noticed any comments on the battle between the 2 footy codes.<\/p>\n

Probably because too often people turn it into sledging. Today\u2019s ratings wrap leads with Thursday sport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"National TV Reach: 1.
