The NRL should have a clause in the contract to ensure their product is shown in HD.
I really was hoping someone else would get a go with the rights but it looks like it'll be Rabs, Hadley and co for best part of another decade.

Sounds like they're structured it so that Fox will have no choice to simulcast.
Four FTA live games, that will hurt Fox's subscriber base.

Nine's loss IMO

Here's the thing though. In Melbourne with the AFL they thought the exact same thing. However the first month Fox footy started they saw a 100,000 increase in subscriptions.
Just like that.
If they create a Fox Nrl channel it will change the game for the better. So much content is available to be played in it.

No-one should be forced to watch Channel 9\. Such a cruel punishment for being someone who likes rugby league. But Channel 9 have paid way overs to get the NRL.
In the end, with the rise of online streaming services like Netflix, both FTA and pay tv networks are dramatically losing their appeal. Live sport is one of the only things they can offer which netflix can't (but yes you can stream illegally).
Fox serves the NRL far better than 9, yet gets treated like a crazy uncle at Christmas.

Well that depends on whether 9 paid for exclusive rights to broadcast those games live. Such an inflated figure suggests they did. So 9 will likely have live games every Thursday-Sunday night, with Fox picking up the scraps of the daytime games and Monday night footy is it still exists.
Depends if the NRL stipulated exclusivity. Fox will be paying a simulcast stipend to Nine to cover the simulcast rights if the NRL contract allows for it.
I would suspect that the NRL wouldn't have thought that far ahead. If they want to maximise their coverage and revenue they bloody well should have.

NRL to take control of the scheduling by 2018.
If that is true, then ALL clubs should be treated equally, but it won't happen. Broncos will still get a regular 7 day break advantage because this will still be shown on 95% of Friday nights.
Again, if the NRL really does control the schedule then ALL clubs should be treated fairly.
