Mate, the ABs are the most watched sporting event every single year in NZ regardless of the RWC.
We're discussing NZ still right? What on earth are you trying to say here? That people aren't subscribing for rugby because there's only 10 AB games a year? Bonkers.
A declining Super rugby still has way higher viewership than the NRL. Outside of the Warriors the NRL does not have high viewership.
It means a lot for Sky historically, it saved the channel in the early 90s, but it's their number 2 sport.
Five this year which is less than normal due to the wc
Since they have been proven a success, that narrative has shifted to "they were the wrong choice" for.... reasons
urban myth, no one ever said it.
Youre even more confusing lol.
Geez. If you're paying a sky subscription to watch the All blacks and just the All blacks, I suggest you are a very well off household! Nobody's paying a full subscription fee for 1 game. No normal people anyway. There needs to be enough content to justify your purchase- plan and simple. They lose the NRL, that's the tipping point for a lot of households. If you can't crasp that, good luck.
The simple fact is unlike you, I'm a NZer, I've been following the Kiwis since the early 80s, the Warriors since I attended their inaugural game, I've played league in NZ, therefore your petty comments toward me because I am also a rugby fan, like the majority of my countrymen, are quite laughable.

The way it’s going if they had to pick one club comp to televise it will be the nrl
Not strictly true
People aren't paying a Sky subscription just for the ABs, I was just responding to your post where you mentioned the ABs, they pay for the entirety of the rugby (Super and NPC).
I was listening to the radio here in nz today and they said one of the point that they don't like about the All blacks was that it's destroying grass roots Rugby. To quote nz radio " npc rip "The simple fact is unlike you, I'm a NZer, I've been following the Kiwis since the early 80s, the Warriors since I attended their inaugural game, I've played league in NZ, therefore your petty comments toward me because I am also a rugby fan, like the majority of my countrymen, are quite laughable.
You know nothing about league in NZ while purporting to be Mr Knowitall.
You know less about Super rugby, you're under the misapprehension that the games don't rate because of crowd figures but the two aren't linked:
Stuff
You're just a keyboard warrior who disengages the moment anyone provides facts that prove your made up claims to be false.
Nope. Was a short lived venture into streamed broadcasting by a telco.
NPC has been on fta and nobody gives a toss. Super Rugby is in decline.
Remember when that union troll said the Auckland council was broke and would never pay for events
Which radio show, not talkback I hope? But a panel show.
The trouble is that died in the wool Union fans don't want to see the truth- I get it! They love the sport, played the sport, and thier friends were made playing the sport. They won't see things how they are.
$80mill for 5 games? Sht we need to be reevaluating the sales price for origin!
