Next TV rights deal

[BuffaloRules]

Just a thought...

Can nine sell one of their games to FOX ?

I really can't see Ch 9 having Saturday night NRL shown every week...

Why not?

What are they going to show instead, replays of Hotplate like they did last Sat night?

 

[taipan]

Who gives a f**k. They have complete control so they use it to homogenise the product even more and f**k international football and the kangaroo brand in favour of clubs and origin. If that's what power does take it off them.

I give a f*ck,and who says they are f*cking International football.I attended a Kangaroo tour end of year ,it was not weakened by having it mid year.Ther Kangaroo band remained strong.
The NRL is plain more emphasis on the International game than prior admins.

What the new deal does,is give NRL clubs more certainty and better player welfare e.g. SOO2 on sunday plus Pacific Island tests.
And guess what there may be money available for grassroots
If Luigi the Unbelievable was running the NRL and negotiating Tv deals,you would still whine.

 

[taipan]

And the nrl has no right to sell them.

Says who?

 

[Cumberland Throw]

They have has the opportunity to bring in FTA sat night football for about 26 years... and have never wanted to do it...

its the lowest FTA viewing night of the week, the lowest ad revenue night...

And it could be up against another nrl game at 7.30pm...

 

[East Coast Tiger]

I didn't say its because of the NRL. You're the one claiming a conspiracy by the NRL yet the whole time its been around the international game has gone from strength to strength.

So if its got nothing to do with the nrl what the f**k are you saying?

The international game has barely overcome the destruction of super league. And that is in spite of the nrl not because of it.

The arrogant merkins didnt even tell the nzrl they were unilaterally scrapping thr mid year test! They didnt even tell the other governing body. If it wasnt such a cluster f**k it would be funny.

 

[taipan]

So the NRL have said f**k you to expansion clubs.
f**k you to international footy.
And f**k off and die to bush footy.

Yet again.

Par for the course from these hopeless merkins.

1.No
2.No
3>No

Provide evidence to support your public whining.

 

[seanoff]

Generally the AFL isn't nor is the Tennis, unless shown on the digital channels how could it be? The main channels are all still SD??

Im certain by 2018 this will change though.

With the NRL shown on GEM in Melbourne, its noticeable the difference in quality to WIN in NQ. Is it filmed in HD though? or is the WIN thing re-broadcast via a Commodore 64??

Most of the OB equipment in australia is HD.

Gearhouse and NEP if you want to look them up

 

[East Coast Tiger]

Says who?

They dont run international football. Even thoigh the arrogant merkins think they do.

Get off smiths c**k and think about it dickhead.

Test football - f**k it off to after the season when less people will see it.
Country footy - remove the only vehicle fpr revenue and exposure it has.
Expansion - sell the rights before its even considered.

Anyine who tries to spin that as a good deal is seriously f**king gullible. These sheep who swallow anything davey boy sprays their way are pathethic. This is where the billion dollars is going, pr spin to fool dopey merkins.

Ffs you mentalist, you're the one claiming they're trying to f**k the international game. I'm saying there is zero evidence of that.

 

[LESStar58]

Pacific nation tests, wont that be exciting - not.

The Tonga vs. Samoa game was better quality than Australia vs. NZ!

 

[East Coast Tiger]

Ffs you mentalist, you're the one claiming they're trying to f**k the international game. I'm saying there is zero evidey of that.

They just axed the mid year test.
Is that enough evidey for you?

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Does nein still show games on a sh1tty hour in Melbourne, still? Is so, hope that's addressed in the new deal.

 

[Canard]

Does nein still show games on a sh1tty hour in Melbourne, still? Is so, hope that's addressed in the new deal.

No they are live and in HD.

Have been so for about 2 seasons now

 

[Chief_Chujo]

Because no one gave a shit about it. It was treated like an exhibition and cheapened the international game.

You need counselling. or drugs. or something.

you need to settle the f**k down. and breathe.

 

[Last Week]

That was my thinking, the club's aren't going to be willing to split the pie with two more sides.

So 2022 at the earliest.

It's very short sighted.

They're not happy with splitting it 16 ways currently!

It will happen if the ARLC want it to happen.

 

[Perth Red]

With some clubs struggling to get more than 10k through the gate they should have zero say in how tne game grows! Holding back successful expansion opportunities to keep clubs who have had decades to sort themselves out heads above water is insane. The NRL needs some balls before it wastes the golden opportunity it has to grow. The interest in Perth is not going to last forever if we keep getting dicked around.

I was really frustrated to read that they're intent on consolidating the 16 teams they have despite years (sometimes decades) of failure to improve from some clubs.

Please. The ANZAC Test has been a joke for so long now that putting it out of its misery was the merciful thing to do.

Shifting the international schedule to the end of the season was the right move.

 

[Perth Red]

Scrapping the ashes series which could have been massive told me how serious Dave smith is about international RL!

8000 in Canberra, and we can't get a team humppph
