    No you didn't ,what you said or implied was ANY negotiation we have to wait, and or the DANZ Foxtel deal will be finished in 2026. I said and provide evidence that 'they hope to Finish the deal BY THE END OF THE 2025 FINANCIAL YEAR> Which the date is the, end of the financial year is 30th June 2025.

    Maybe I was not exactly clear the breakup of FTA. , say, Nine, then Sunday game Ten FTA. You could to stop confusion have it or this arrangement 2 years running's them swap ( this means 3 times) to get to a six year deal. Thursday Game has to BOTH so both networks have 2 games to show each...

    This way to handle the next deal - Like the American model they have a mix of TV and other/type of pay TV - ... Divided up amongst the 'networks'. I foresee FTA model under pressure as well as their financing. Lets see how Seven goes with 200+ ? in the short coming years. So having said that...

    I get where you are coming from. Their are two problems or obstacles for the NRL. 1. securing the 'most money' it can with the any or all partners. @. Having paid or contracted how responsive or hands on will the 'new owners' be. Considering all the other sports they manage. It looks like it...

    I don't know about that, the last two years we have been neck and neck over $$$. If we sign a better deal , will see then. By the way in 3 months time we have confirmation, or the the annual reports will be published which will back up my first point. I can see that we play Nine off against the...
