1 bil tops. How will RL fans go though with more forced ad breaks?

meh
we'll cop it

$600 million. Only $100 million more than the last one. Reason? Too much reliance on regional areas and not enough attention paid to Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide. Regionals don't pay the bills. NRL need a presence in Adelaide and Perth to get anywhere near the AFL's deal.

my prediction is here somwehere

I think I said a tick ova a Billion
I don't think much has changed

Why so low? I thought you said the NRL was the number 1 sport?

it is

but we're coming from a undervalued base through extenuating circumstances
more then doubling our present deal would be an amazing result

we'll take the lead & have the biggest TV deal in the land from 2018

So you will go from an undervalued deal to another? Maybe it's you who is overvaluing your product.

I don't think a tick ova a Billion has us too far off where we should be from next year
but continued growth in ratings .. a 4th mainland capital city into our stable with all the extra flexibility in coverage times over here as a result .. & games on TV every week in Brisbane will see us have the biggest TV deal of any sport in the land from 2018.

A tick over 1 bil will have you 20% down on the AFL. That's not exactly a good reflection on a sport you claim is the superior tv product.
