I left him alone because I thought he was simple but it is better to call out his shit.

I am happy to debate with people because no one is correct but come at me with direct links or some time of facts...
100%. Unfortunately nothing is going to stop him endlessly spraying bull shit over this forum.

Yeh let’s include the tv deals where News Ltd owned half the game lol

You keep talking about the current AFL deal. when the next one hasnt started and comparing all sorts of irrelevelant bullshit
You love comparing apples and oranges when it suits then ignore stuff that doesn’t suit your narrative
sure i do


You’ve been happy to compare the arl and nrl tv ratings by ignoring one nrl team and not mentioning the afl has had up to two more teams at time (extra game each week)

I -as I have said many times here and on twitter - am not ignoring NZ, when there is any actual data, Ill be more than happy to include it.


If you think ratings aren’t the most crucial driver of pay tv rights you should post that on your twitter so people can see how biased you are

I have. The only people who arc up are universally rugby league folks. Cant have the narrative threatened.

And with paytv ratings is absolutely not the driver of paytv rights you think it is.

There is a brick wall over there if you want to bash your head against it.

Foxtel loses the nrl it loses 60 percent of its subscribers overnight

Nobody is paying 100 a month for reruns of the sopranos or got

Wherever the nrl goes will be the number one network

We are using the future afl deal as a benchmark for the next nrl tv deal einstein

And good you admit many rugby league fans “arc up” to your Twitter posts

sure you did.

Now you haven't gone to so much as an Origin game... fraud
When you went to England recently you didn’t even visit the George hotel

Pretty disappointing to be honest

1990 grand final I was in the car park of panthers leagues post game

Heck I was going to reactor one when you were still in nappies

I haven't been to England - so another fail.

So when did you decide to stop going to games then?

Except Foxtel won't have GOT in 6 months keep up.

As to the rest of this dribble.

1. the price is going to drop when they lose HBO stuff and would drop even more if it wasn't paying $600m to NRL/AFL

So why has their not been a 60% drop off in the off season then?

Dang thought we were finally rid of news ltd, but like shingles they still hang around in the background. Interesting times ahead with a new player in australia.

Thats a big assumption without data to support it. And no ratings are still not subcriptions.

You might be surprised. For example, Binge and Kayo are neck and neck for subs.

You are using the thoughts in your head as a benchmark for christ only knows what.

I never said many. I said the only people who arc up are league fans.

Patrick Delaney should hire you as his assistant ceo of Foxsports

Without the halo created by having rugby league nobody will care about got, hotd or house

There was a former poster here who is actually an expert on the tv industry

He’s the one that said if Stan gets the nrl rights they will become the dominant streaming network

I wonder why any rugby league fans would arc up at a site that claims to be neutral

So no answer as to why they don't lose 60% of the customers in summer?
Most league fans who subscribe through kayo do

If there was no league I would cancel Foxtel tomorrow for Netflix

Half the movies I want to watch aren’t even on Foxtel anymore

Dazn is going to be in for a rude shock if they let the nrl slip through their fingers and are left with secondary programming

he was wrong on a few parts too.

For the same reason AFL fans arc up when they feel slighted by the data, or football fans, or rugby union fans, or lately, cricket fans. Cant please everyone all the time.

Am I the only one paying $10 for Kayo and $5 for Binge?
Admittedly the Kayo deal runs out in 4 or 5 months but the Binge goes for another 11 months.
Sometimes Black Friday can be beneficial, especially if they are trying to get you back in the fold.
