Talking Footy

Bahahah as filler.

Can't wait to see the next NRL rights blow the awful out of the water again just like it did before the sl war.

Won't be no sl war this time to fuck them up unless some Saudi Billionaire wants a piece for his new tv station.

what the hell are you on about?

"Don't be surprised to see Thursday night footy become a permanent fixture in the NRL draw under the next TV rights deal. The concept has been keenly discussed in the opening rounds of talks between the NRL and network heavies. The NRL finally appears to have realised there can no longer be delayed matches, meaning the second Friday night game must be sacrificed. The natural move would be to Thursday night, which has recorded impressive ratings on a five-game-a-year basis since 2013.

There is also a growing chance the rights - which are up for grabs from 2018 onwards - will be split in a unique way between free to air and pay TV networks. Strong interest surrounds a marquee game on Saturday nights, to be broadcast on free-to-air. Current Pay TV rights holder, Fox Sports, want to replicate the AFL model and broadcast all eight games live in high definition (HD). The free-to-air bidders would be reluctant for that to happen as it impacts on revenue, with viewership split when games are broadcast live on multiple channels."

NRL's TV negotiations get ratings boost

The NRL is hoping that strong growth in television ratings in the first 13 rounds will result in a big money boost for its next TV rights deal.

11 Jun 2015 - 9:06 PM UPDATED YESTERDAY 9:08 PM

The NRL's hopes of landing a record new TV rights deal received a boost with ratings showing strong growth in the first half of the 2015 season.

On Thursday club powerbrokers were told at the NRL chief executives meeting that television viewership was up this year on the back of a spike in the popularity of Sunday afternoon football.

The NRL pointed to figures from OzTAM - Australia's official television audience measurement data company - that showed following 13 rounds of free to air metropolitan TV that audiences were up five per cent on the same period last year.

That included a 10 per cent bump in Sydney and 17 per cent jump in Melbourne.

However they had dropped two per cent in the rugby league heartland of Brisbane, despite the Broncos' strong performances in the first 13 rounds to lead the competition.

Most of that growth has been on the back of the increase in viewership for free-to-air Sunday afternoon broadcasts, due to Channel 9's decision to show its game live instead of on delay.

The timeslot is up 17 per cent in metro areas compared to the same period last year, including in Sydney (+21 per cent), Brisbane (+9 per cent) and Melbourne (+24 per cent).

However Nine's marquee live Friday night telecast has experienced a drop in ratings, down 0.4 per cent overall, including a 5 per cent plunge in Brisbane. Ratings are up 4 per cent in Sydney however.

Last month the NRL ramped up negotiations on its next TV rights deal, due to begin in 2018.

Speculation has put the deal's worth at between $1.5 and $2 billion.

The NRL has engaged Credit Suisse chief executive John Knox to handle its rights process while Nine has hired heavy hitter Jeffrey Browne.

Current broadcasters Nine and Fox Sports along with Seven and Ten are in the running for the rights.

The NRL is also considering selling off the rights to State of Origin separately to the NRL season in an attempt to drive up its price.

The NRL has opened negotiations a year early in the hope of getting the jump on the AFL.

At the NRL chief executives meeting, clubs were given a run down on possible changes to the interchange system, as well as plans to limit breaks in play and reduce concussions.

The whole of game review being undertaken by head of game strategy and development Shane Richardson, which will look into a draft, junior structures and the scrapping of the National Youth Competition, was also discussed.

what a stupid article. The NRL's Sunday game is up, basically because the game is now live, which is to be expected. The FN game, which compares to last year, is down.

The SL wars is the only reason why the nrlol got so
Much money. Endless years of c9 and Foxtel of the Packers and murdochs involved in a dick measuring contest.

Compare interest of league in the real wood, crowds, participation rated, revenue, club revenue and sponsorship figures and the nrlol's are pathetic when compared to the AFL!

Lol all you basement dwellers including you pissycat blame the super league wars for the state of your game.
It did nothing but put league on the map with the endless promotion. It sti hasn't changed the fact that the nrlol is an amateur shot show. The next decade will see the nrlol dwindle back in to what it was before hand.

Lol why bother replying to this rambling load of crap ,.tried once ,& post got deleted or moved .
Yet the usual basement ,piss crap stays .

It was on fucking topic . I replied to the rambling bulldhit about the SL .

Yet my post disappeared .

Seems to get away with whatever you want on here you have to be an AFL poster .
