Taking in comments of the other posts, even though it is extremely unlikely that:
Foxtel would seek to reduce the current deal and if they did
It would be extremely unlikely that the AFL would accept any reduction and
It would be extremely unlikely that Foxtel could actually enforce a reduction without extreme financial consequences and breaking the contract
And
There are several suitors waiting in the wings to pay for the AFL rights.
The AFL can win out of this…it does not, as i have posted before, auger well for the NRL.
And
agreed, It is very unlikely a break of contract or reduction would occur.
what would generally happen if one party is not happy.. they would Work out things.
that can benefit them and be agreed upon.
like adding more content for example..
WILD CARD & ORGIN SERIES
And a 20th team so there are more games per week.
well yep 19th and 20th Is very good added bonus

And with more games the AFL will get more money, from foxtel…channel 7…or maybe somewhere else.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.

that is not always the case, everything has a ceiling.
I would not of be surprised Tasmania was included in tv deal as it had a 2028 entry date.
20th and extra game however no

The advertising market cap of Tasmania is next to nothing so I doubt it would add much value to the whole deal

I was referring to when the 20th side comes in, so yes and extra per game per round.
