Fox will pay them peanuts next deal .
Same with RU.
They will throw big $$$ at RL & fumbleball ..
Sokka has just about sunk into oblivion in this country .

"How low can it go"...

FOX are better off selling the remaining deal off at any cost..

the amount of money being spent on broadcasting it would not = amount getting back in return.

Newcastle Jets v Brisbane Roar - 20k on fox sports

Wow .
That's incredibly bad ratings

so many more games this year, are not making the TOP 20..

Media week luckily are releasing the low figures games..

you are now in the league where alot of overseas sports are over taking the figures..

as in West Indies v Ireland beating the A League with 30k



(FOX i think gave up....

handed the losses to there accountants to work out.. over the next remaining few years.

Ratings from last weekend... down to a new low of just 15,000 nationwide on Foxtel.


Sydney FC v Brisbane Roar 17k
Adelaide v Melbourne City 17k
Newcastle v Western United 15k
Perth v Melbourne Victory 15k
