    Next TV rights deal part 2

    proposed deal in early stages of possibly being considered and still yet to even consult Nine about any of it, Yet the telegraph are claiming it's a done deal and putting dollars to it, desperate much? :lol: The deal won't be done through the f**king media...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    The fact they keep saying its 1.7-8 means it's probably going to end up 2bn+, just like last time.

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    When rothfield reported the new deal in August he suggested that Nine would get 1xthurs, 1xfri, 1xsun, fox would get 3xsat & 2xsun, he also said there were sticking points in negotiations over the NRL wanting an extra game on FTA and he suggested it would be on Ten, but having 4 FTA games would...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    this whole stupid story sounds like another lame attempt to bully the NRL into a deal on fox's terms, which is why Wilson & Rothfield are the idiots pushing it. They already tried this earlier this year 'exclusively' revealing that MNF would be scrapped in a 1.7bn deal that would give the NRL...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    Nine can't sell shit to fox, they have to sell it back to the NRL who can then sell it to whoever they want at whatever price they want and they won't do that unless it's substantially worth their while, which means they gain more money from fox than they'd lose from Nine. Nine can't even sell...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    rothfield has now chimed in with an article talking as if it's a done deal, http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/nrl-broadcast-deal-could-mean-win-for-fans-with-every-game-live/story-fnp0lyn3-1227603788576

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    I said this in part 1 thread, they could probably play a handful of fri 6pm games and the rest sunday nights, and the fri 6pm games could be played in nz, which would at least help crowds and boost the value of the NZ deal.

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    love how News Corp make out that they are 'giving up' MNF, pretty sure the NRL already took it off you! Until the NRL announce it, take the whole thing with a grain of salt, rothfield came out with an back page exclusive like this earlier in the year only for the NRL to come out & announce the...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    the numbers being talked about in that wilson article are so bs, why would the NRL sell basically everything to fox for only $800m, $125m less than they would get from Nine under the 925m FTA deal? makes absolutely no sense.

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    under the FTA deal with Nine they can't sell games to fox, they have to sell it back to the NRL and then the NRL sell it to fox. There's something big missing from the picture imo, the NRL already have 925m, why would they undo it all and give fox everything to get to only 1.5bn? They would...

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    News Corp can get f**ked, no way the NRL give all that up for only 1.5bn before digital & NZ rights. If its 1.85bn BEFORE digital & NZ rights it's more equitable.

    2016 Jerseys, Sponsorship, Logos Discussion

    WIL jersey is random, I really don't get what stars & space are supposed to do with it other than being pink/purple. Nine's jersey looks warriors-esque H&A aren't too bad.

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    It can be a double-edged sword, the AFL bleed a lot of viewers throughout the broadcast, whereas the NRL usually retain them for the majority.

    Next TV rights deal part 2

    they talked about the optus stuff on offsiders and that old Victorian woman said 'the NRL aren't looking so stupid after all, having still got paytv & telco rights unsold, anything could happen there'
