Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

[Canard]

Stan v Fox

2 extra games every round (eventually)

Women’s origin

U19 origin

Pacific cup

And then there’s potential for a tv deal with png and more money from sky nz

It remains to be seen as to whether extra content = extra TV rights money.

One thing is for sure, extra content is not a zero sum game, it all increases costs of operation, overheads etc.

Where extra content can come into its own is if you have enough to split into numerous packages to sell to different providers ala NFL.

breakdowns are a lot harder than they used to be. But it comes from event ticketing and corporates (for the NRL this means finals and Origins, for the AFL this means finals), wagering, sponsorship, development fees, merchandising and licensing. The NRL notes digital services income separately (AFL media is included in its broadcast revenues as its a JV with Telstra), and the NRL includes its investment revenues such as the Gambaro Hotel, whereas the AFL includes the revenue from Marvel stadium and its share of Champion data. Both bodies include their respective state bodies revenues in their income (the ones they control)

Thanx.

Got to remember this coming AFL deal was signed in 2022. Financial situations werent as dire as they seem to be now too.

I get that but both Fox and 7 both seem to be losing stuff. Not sure the extra SA fans for example moving to fox sees them be able to pay a crazy amount.

Using the figures ch7 quoted - which being 9 years in the future at 2% inflation a year looks to be spot on

Telstra share was atleast $50m. Given it goes 10 years in the future that moves to around $70m.

AFR or 1 of the Ch9 news said ch7 amount was $147m before the covid reduction. That with the increase they stated is $180m

That leaves without the un announced stadium upgrade cash $320m.

I can't imagine you would get the wifi updates and the like for under $100m.

So the Fox share is likely under $300m.

which we don't have here. Easy to do with $330m.

We should sell days though. Include NRLW games played on the day. It would make the games more profitable then currently

Taking games off guaranteed drawcards in Souffs, Bronx etc.

Replaced by the lesser drawing PNG, Perth who also have the added benefit of costing more to produce

In 2020 the the revised five-year deal with Seven for 2020-2024 was for $730 million or an average of $146 million per year for free to air rights.

according to Seven in 2022

"Seven will pay a 14% increase on the 2024 rights in 2025; with indexation over the term this represents a 3.6% compound annual growth rate in rights fees across the period. "
