It reeks of AFL desperation to one up the NRL only days ahead of Xmas when no one gives a shit about this stuff. No attributed quotes on it being...
my thoughts exactly. plus ch9 signing a direct competitor to FTA is just another sick joke in the cacophony of sick jokes ch9 commits on the NRL....
Surely disrupted by the Election, to some extent.
it's pretty clear they have. any chance wookie can post the AFL version of the detail above?
Thanks to The Wookie for all the stats. I think if the NRL are serious about becoming a better product nationally, even if that means no national...
It's a well worn path to threaten the incumbent with breaking the rights up. If SOO succeeds after the season finishes it might be a good time to...
Agree and there's no reason for Fox to overpay in order to incite NRL. They are holding off on Union and Soccer also. I can't see it being a...
The mysterious beast is finally revealed! 28% of the NRL and 24% of the AFL audience on kayo.
No idea, but compelling concept. If FTA is simply free to anyone who downloads the app, in the digital age it might be good enough?!?
Masters posed a few weeks back that Kayo could be offered to anyone as a free app. This could then host the GF and 3 Origins for the FTA audience....
I'm still secretly hoping Ch10 come to the table in FTA next time around. Surely the other part of cutting out Telstra favours an open tender for...

I'm having a giggle. And all this is before they renovate their tv deal lower. Ironically, losing GWS and Suns might actually help!
I'm not trying to derail, but on what basis is the land worth $1b? On the basis that the AFL could sell it to a developer who would build...
I think it would be built into Ch9's deal. Not so much Foxtel.
Has Marvel been independently valued? Or is it just an assumed value based on what the AFL says? I'm curious because we've just built a 300m...
Hard to know if this Ch9 decision will age well. 2 years with a broadcast revenue cut seems premature to me. But I think everyone has to...
AFL back June 11 confirmed. Facing significant cross over issues with cricket now. Would be surprised if they don't get a bigger write down in tv...
The dual international status is worthy of mentioning though. From an era where it actually mattered. An amateur in union who became a...
Post Super League John O'Neill tried to ruin the NRL with player poaching, hoarding top tier sponsorship and aggressive turf wars. His mistake was...
