Nor because of hotd or afl

No where in that article does it say the new buyer won't streamline stuff.

Most sport you can buy the pictures direct from the sport, If that is what it becomes locally then profit the sports get is less

No nrl no foxtel

ususally when someone wants to sell something they don’t destroy it’s value

but who knows maybe you are right and Murdoch doesn’t care about foxtel value

Foxtel will know which sports are generating the subscribers and attracting the advertisers. Its obviously lucrative, at a certain price point, for them to hold the rights to the countries two main sports. The value of NRL will only increase substantially if there are other bidders for NRL that Fox have to outbid.

Who says Fox are paying each sport what they are worth ?

there’s one sport that built foxtel. The other is filler content

Exactly they aren’t paying nrl what it’s worth
they are paying what they have been allowed to get away with because of A) no competition for the rights B) poor negotiators at the NRL.
Like I said they arent a charity, they will pay the min they can to purchase the products they on sell to get the max profit for their shareholders.
