My god, are we still talking about this? Are you still claiming that NRL got a good deal - or that they negotiated this well - or that somehow the fumblers aren’t getting more money and considerably more too.
Occam’s razor tells you this but for some reason you are still trying to argue that you can’t simply state this fact. The fumblers did their negotiations better and they got more money. Case closed. Let’s hope we do it better than them next time.
No I am claiming both got market value.
AFL has more sponsors associated with their coverage and longer coverage hence
Remembering both deals go up 3% of so a year.
So the $400m deal this year for NRL becomes $412m for 2024
$424m for 2025
$436m for 2026
$449m for 2027
$462m for 2028
$475m for 2029
$489m for 2030
$503m in 2031.
While a new deal will kick in with a 9th game, Even on the current trend the NRL deal will reach $503 before the AFL deal expires. Which that too will start lower and increase year on year
IF as the AFR is correct and the NRL is cash only then you can add 20m to these figures.
Again people need to stop looking at these things as straight lines.
Or that the 2 are even the same. More sponsors too for 1 code then the other
