Big congratulations for PVL getting a deal like this done

Now that the NRL is responsible for the draw let's hope the Broncos don't get every Friday night game.

9 needs to invest heavily on technology..

Mate this is the worst idea. This happens in America and the broadcasting is chaotic requiring multiple subscriptions.

I am very glad people like you have no power in society. Harsh but true.

Their broadcast of the SOO in HD was horrible, it was a bit better for the Rugby game they televised Wallabies vs Ireland, however still not as good as fox HD, and way off the UHD.

PVL said he could have gotten more money if he broke it up more like the US but didn't want to Pi$$ people off said Australians would not be use to it

So are they admitting that it's not fair because the Broncos always get a up leg in every other year



"The new deal has taken control of the draw from the broadcasters and put it in the hands of the league, and it appears Monday night football is unlikely to make a return.

"I don't think Monday night is an option," V'landys said.

"The NRL now is responsible for the draw. We wanted to make it fair and equitable for all clubs. It's not really designed for the broadcast."

It's for this reason I never watch 9, well, that and goldfish head Gould stinking it up.

Need to keep it out of the hands of fools and those with brain dead ideas like splitting it up amongst multiple broadcasters.

Never ceases to amaze me the dim wittedness that exists in the world.

Dont need to have the personal shot.

More people in Australia have Netflix and Prime subscriptions compared to Kayo.

Kayo is probably one of the worst sports streaming platforms out there.

Prime killed it with their T20 coverage in UHD.

But more than quality, it's about the number of people reached. Netflix and Prime reaches out to so many more people because of low cost subscriptions.

I was hoping Kayo doesn't get exclusive rights but it has so we can't do anything about it. But, I sponge off a friend's Kayo but no matter how much I like footy, paying $30/mo on top of Netflix $25/mo and Prime, and Disney is too big of a cost.

I just don't see what Kayo brings to the table that other streaming platforms don't.

In terms of sponsorships and eyeballs, because it's the same two platforms, I don't know how many extra corporate partners and sponsorships you get, but imagine having Netflix showing 3 games a week and how many more corporate opportunities you get especially if you continue playing in Vegas.

It's a big deal for sure $5.3b and ARL has worked very hard to get it but I was hoping for more variety. Content consumption is changing but we have had Nine/Fox/Kayo for decades now.

We could have had different panel members, commentators, different angles. Let's hope Nine and Fox invest more into sports technology
