So guess what, Big Red knows more than the reporter......
Zoe Samios covers wagering and the business of sport from the AFR's Sydney newsroom. She was previously the media and telecommunications reporter for The Sydney Morning Herald......
Mr Red knows all...
Haven’t you learned anything in your 17 years on these forums ?

LU posters are more knowledgeable than journalists, CEO’s, commissioners and Chairman :D

(Australian Securities and Investments Commission) does hold and publish the financial records of public companies, limited by liability, Which is what the AFL, NRL (ARLC) fall under. If you want a comprehensive detail financial picture you can for a fee obtain its 'records'. Now one would think a business reporter with a large company (SMH and Financial Review ) have a ongoing account with ASIC where they can get detailed information. Alternatively the big betting Sports bet TAB also have detailed expenses where one can see what they pay the AFL and NRL, so the info would be their for a business reporter, OTHERWISE the AFL and NRL would scream NO thats not we get payed, it's far less, totally bogus story by ZOE, but they don't fight that inaccuracy do they. Notice it's a fee, so for it to be stable or the same over time makes sence for the life of the contract. So the $40m AFL, $50m NRL fee is correct.

ASIC records for the AFL and NRL don't have this specified. I pay for them every year.

“While Australian free-to-air channels are expected to be in the mix alongside Foxtel, the NRL is expected to attract interest from across the globe. With NRL in Vegas considered a huge success in 2023, and 2024 set to be even “bigger and better”, the game’s popularity in the international market is only growing.”

And to think posters on here questioned the value of going to Vegas


“We have got the most valuable rights in Australian sport. Last year we were the most viewed sport in Australia,” V’Landys said.”

Pvl will be using ratings dominance as his primary argument for higher tv deal together with more content

Rugby league expanding internationally will end up getting a streaming service interested

If Vegas keeps growing it’s going to be a huge part of that int expansion

How many people would show up to a game in Vegas featuring a league / super rugby or fumblers ???

Why didn't he use that at the last TV rights negotiation though?
