    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    Please. You never took in the fact the fumbler deal was 7 years starting 2025 , so inflation plays a big part as the longer a contract goes, and the later it finishes , compared to where the NRL will start their new deal 2028. So AFL further 3years of inflation included in their 7years deal...

    18th club, whose next?

    My 50c worth. The money outlaid by the Feds for the PNG entry will do more good for not only the people of PNG 10million, but help in the security of the PIs/Australia and last but not least the NRL to increase the next TV deal value(are you "listening" Perff Red?). By contrast we have the same...

    18th club, whose next?

    All I can say is "I like to watch". It's like having a match of the round every few minutes.

    Game day vs Bronco

    I expect by the end of the night we'll get Jack Gibson looking down saying" Sharks done good played strong". Nicho will play a big one after the lack of game time on Wednesday night.

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    And contract guru, you have no doubt overlooked Paramount's financial situation in the U.S ,added to the dire prediction of Peter Van Olsenen ex employee of Ch10/CBS about theat outlets' major issues. Would have been really exciting if Paramount had paid the big bikkies and as they have been...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    The guru of Australian media sporting contracts has "spoken" . Conveniently forgets the time the Galloping CEO bragged to the media and all who would listen, we got an Australian record sporting Tv deal, then a few months later embarrassingly slam dunked by the fumbler's TV deal. Maybe it had...

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    First half was a bit meh too much niggling and one out stuff, then half time the message must have been for both sides go for it ,go for broke.NSW must have misheard and thought it was go for choke. 2nd half is what the game is all about ,fast ball movement, offloads, changing points of attack...

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    Agree that's why I'm for taking one of the games each year to a neutral venue.Apart from the expected interest in the NRL states ,it brings in the theatregoers and on TV the curious in the state in which it is held. Thinking outside the square(even though this was played on an oval).

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Of course you don't need to ,maybe knowing the revenue for advertising may be revealing. Going around in circles bud, you're going to continue with the we "wuz" robbed routine, and I'm going to continue with compare apples with apples and closer to the bone ad revenue with ad revenue. Because...

    O.T How embarrassing are the St.George Illawarra Dragons?

    I gotta agree on that one ,having players at street lights with buckets for motorist to toss a coin or two ,to save the club, and moi having a sticker on the rear window of my lil ole car with "Save our Sharks" on it. If the club was a limbo bar it would be resting on the ground ATT. Then of...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Look to get down to the nitty gritty of our debate ,and the why's and wherefores ,I suggest you do some research as you are 100% we got diddled. You need to go and establish what was the total revenue received by channel 7 and indeed Fox for their advertising that directly relates to fumble...
