5.3 Billion deal for NRL 2027

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


Mate I watch it for free online just not with Kayo
