Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

[titoelcolombiano]

Where are you pulling this $15 figure from?

Ch9 pay $115m. Orign is worth $50m ( this makes 80% of the FTA profit)

Meaning the NRL regular FTA brings in $65m - everyone of those games is shown live on Fox. Ch9 want to have exclusive games next deal.

AFL has more FTA games, games that overlap. 90% of games are exclusive to ch7 in the market. For example Swans and GWS are exclusive to ch7.

So the 2 aren't like for like

I wasn't sure what the actual number was so I was guestimating. So if the number is $115M and Origin is responsible for 80% of the broadcast deal, then the Origin figure is $90M, leaving $25M as the supposed value of the NRL comp. A little more than my $15M guess, but still an obviously ridiculous figure.

NRL Comp only: $25M (no Origin) and at worst rates just as well as the AFL. The quote is bullshit and gets tossed around liberally after Gus said it who is notoriously full of shit

Gus, a C9 employee, would have a vested interest in talking down the TV rights of the club competition.

He is a snake

Gus always speaks highly of Nine and has previously said that Rugby League wouldn't be in the position it's in if it wasn't for Nine. Personally I wouldn't trust his opinion with anything regarding broadcast rights.

His conflict of interest is self evident. Nine have held back league for decades and are only now realising the true value of the game.

I am happy to bag out ch9, Ch7 and Ch10 have had the option to bid.

IF ch9 was on unders why hasn't another FTA network outbid them?

I’ve just read the last 8 pages of absolute dribble One thing is completely clear though, Iamback has no effing idea what he is talking about.

Funny how trolls like the above. Like to bag posters yet offer zero to the discussion

Why the NRL wants a TV bidding war: even if it includes sportswashing

With DAZN set to become involved in the war for NRL TV rights, Australian rugby league faces its first flirtation with sportswashing. It can't be avoided.

I find it hard to believe they will spend all that money buying Foxtel just to lose its arguably most important asset. I think it will a matter of how far Stan is willing to go.

Only an idiot or an afl fan would think otherwise

3.5 billion in value and a majority of that comes from having the rights to the nrl

Nine bidding for the pay tv rights is their t nightmare

Not since the super league war have the pay tv rights had more than one bidder

.....

Stan's User Interface is shitful compared to a Netflix, so for >$37/month you would hope they spend some time correcting it.

Channel 9? Spend money to actually fix/improve something?!

Ch7 have all its money and broadcast slots tied up with AFL. Ch10 are still a basket case. That's why.

An interesting take on the politics of a DAZN deal. Not that I think Vlandys will care, he'll just care about the $'s.

I don't disagree but wouldn't that mean ch9 is paying market value?

Lot of other sports taking the Middle East oil money …although gives you another chance for a kick at PVL…

Monday NF and Friday 6pm should reserved for NRLW games of the week

If there is only one buyer, not necessarily. They can get it at lesser rates than if there were competing offers. Its why, for example, many people sell their homes via auction.
