Re: Was the founder of the AFL a genocidal massacrist???

Interesting story. Most of Tom Wills family were murdered and their possessions were stolen in the biggest massacure by indigenous Australians in Australian history. So Tom rides out with some friends, family and Indigenous trackers and they catch up to a group carrying his family possessions inclu...

Re: AFL of to a flyer!

Oh no some clubs all up lost 20 million dollars last year...... Wait a minute the AFL just signed a deal that increases its yearly revenue by about 250 million a year. No doubt some clubs struggle especially when the team is playing poorly, but to say that the sky is falling when they are backed by ...

Re: AFL, the most valuable sport on Australian TV

http://footyindustry.com/files/codewar/AFLNRLmediadeals2017.png So NRL 1.725 billion with international (sky and games) naming and radio to go. AFL with 2.508 billion with naming and radio to go? Is that correct or has naming been included. Another thing to consider is that the AFL deal starts a ye...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

The dirty feed ended up allowing Foxtel to show their own adds. That's not the case with the current NRL deal. Maybe Foxtel can negotiate with nine to change this. Assuming that you were right and Foxtel had to show Ch9 adds. If C9 are showing there adds and Foxtel are showing there adds also , the...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

This comes from an AFL website discussing the new deal (previous one 2011). noel 01-05-11, 04:35 PM It seems that it is even more complicated in Eddie McGuire's Column in the Sunday Herald-Sun he said that Foxtel will be taking a DIRTY feed from Seven for the live games and taking ALL commercials -...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

Global Media and Sports boss Colin Smith is quoted as saying. “For Fox Sports, the problem is their second prize is much, much worse than it was previously. They have lost one game, they have lost Saturday exclusivity, they have lost Monday and if they take simulcast, they have to take the Channel N...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

He will maintain subscriptions if he takes up all 8 matches, Semis and whatever. If he can advertise 'all matches every week' he may even pick up subscriptions. If he only takes up the four exclusive matches, he leaves the other matches open for Somebody else. Competition is the last thing he wants...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

The reason why fox want the nrl games is for two reasons. To maintain or increase subs and advertising. They will maintain most of their subs by having a few games on exclusive. People need to watch their teams after all. Simulcast will help a little with subs but not a great deal. But it looks like...

Re: 2.508 Billion AFL rights deal

it also says they hadnt even been approached. basically someone in the media rang them and asked. It has as much legs as the google and netflix shit. The other myth that needs to be busted is the suggestion that Fox was caught off guard – it's just not true. There were more than 20 meetings, calls,...

Re: NRL gets 925 mill for 4 games per week .

Will be interesting to see what pans out with the fox NRL deal. The NRL have plenty of time to work out an agreement with them. Rupert is obviously not happy at the way the NRL 9 deal was done... but he knows and everyone else knows that Rugby League fans won't keep fox if it does not have NRL game...
