    Which is why I want to see how he starts the season. He stepped up in the big games so that is a good sign moving forward

    Correct. Once we got to the finals in that situation no one was beating us. I'd back us full strength in finals over anyone. Over the course of the season many guys phone it in. Moses is another. Too small a sample size to put Tago in this boat yet

    Dolphins brought that in because Fox got more Broncs games. A reduced season sees less Broncs games

    Has more to do with the timeslots they get but yep. It isn't just them any of the regional teams playing each other rates poorly. GC, Canberra all will struggle when v any of the new teams That is why this talk of a 22 round comp will affect things like this

    People around here don't like you calling it as it is seen. You must only suck the side off

    As a side in almost every metric the side was down from previous years. That doesn't happen unless players aren't playing to their best every week. Even Ivan called out the side after the Canberra game. He clearly knew it would get a response but he doesn't do that IF the side is flying

    I guess we add Gold to the Wall of Premiership jerseys for 2025

    All 3 are future projects that have huge potential down the track. Especially trying make tests more valuable a strong PNG helps that case But that is 2 TV deals time

    I was using it as an example. DAZN will bid as low as possible and go up as they need too. Stan have the ch9 issue with the changes and needing to sort out issues before they are in a position to say where they sit. The only sport with more money is AFL for various reasons as to why but lets...

    Some say they can't afford the next deal. The AFR being one. Again DAZN will do what is good for the business. Say they come in and make a bid. Lets say Pay TV they value at $350m. They will make that bid and that bid only, It takes someone else to want it more and bid against it to raise the...

    He doesn't care about facts in this discussion. There are benefits to what the 3 teams bring in. TV isn't one just yet

    Smarter people also say we have networks without money. It can't be both

    Need national coverage 1st. Storm are probably favourites next year. If ch10 had the rights there are parts of Victoria that wouldn't be able to watch them if they made the GF. That is not going to help the game. They need to get their shit together BUT NRL should break the rights up and...

    Yes because there isn't a single metric that states RL and AFL should get the same. more games of AFL on FTA for starters.
  17. Iamback

    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    I gave ways RL can maximise money. None seems to be on the table so that limits the potential deal. NRLW as a stand alone seems a no brainer but doesn't seem part of the plan

    When TV's main numbers are in QLD/NSW then that is where TV will be targetted.

    Yes I hate rugby League you f**ken dropkick. NRL round on FTA 3 games. 3 pre games. 3 half times. Ave 5 tries a game. Add 2 HIA or other times for ads. AFL round 4 games. 4 pre games. 8 qtr breaks. 10 goals a game. What has more value for neutral TV execs?
  20. Iamback

    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    it will add some but FTA is played out of prime time. Origin is perfect example Perth rates 100k less than Melbourne. No doubt the Fox replay goes well over there. Say Stan gets the rights. How many subs realistically are moving across?
