Interesting from the US, a new streaming service. The world of sports media is about to get a massive new player. Disney, Fox Corp. and Warner Bros. Discovery are planning to a launch a new streaming joint venture that will make all of their sports programming — including ESPN, Fox Sports and...

OK mate you win. Keep referring back to management decisions as the model. I fully and even more now stand by the model. Maybe one you will understand the difference rather than saying the management is shit, therefore the model is shit. Or is it you just wanta be argue because its Football.

I don't think so, smh will do a lot of articles and Nine will have little bits on there news. The Nine / Fairfax / Stand deal not looking at money, but for coverage its very good.

wow you seem to know a lot more than me First I stand by as I have said about the model. Not sure if you understand the difference between a model under different managers one can succeed and one can fail. Your entire argument is about management mistakes, we are in total agreement don't make...

But they have. Auckland roughly 8 weeks ago and if media reports are correct Canberra within two weeks.

Adam, you are driving me crazy in your connecting an apple and an orange, and calling it a watermelon. The APL structure is the way rugby should go, even more now than before. Some of the decisions made the APL management have been inept, and should stand as a warning, for rugby not to follow...

Mate, On my knees I beg forgiveness for saying Football. If you care to read what I posted I said the A-League is in trouble and has made some series management errors. I then said, those decisions had nothing to do with the system, structure they have in place. Adam, I understand, its hard...

Interesting WWE to be broadcast on netflicks...

Yes and I stand by it, even more now. they started with 8 teams, now they have 12 soon 14, they now have a full season of womens teams. These teams provide players for there national teams, even if many transfer from the A-l to Europe to get selected, there crowds are up slightly on last year...

got the jersey wrong should be a Woodies one.

Made them often and so did many others I was not in any way a lone voice. Maybe it was the people I associated with but the idea that a media company could design a rugby competition that would stand the test of time to us was beyond crazy. You ask were, mostly in some committees, often on the...

I think you are right. If I said in Australia First tier codes are AFL, Cricket, NRL Second tier, Super Cars, Rugby, Football, Third Tier, Basketball, Netball Both third tier codes have had major issues, with basketball restructuring an growing nicely now, Football currently has Newcastle...

understand but two questions arise given they are in administration, that decision is up to the administrator, not Waugh. second moving forward past 2024 if only four teams in 25 how does this affect the next media deal.

Sorry in advance if this has already be covered, but I have not seen it anywhere. If the Rebels cannot take part in Super Rugby, does this reduce the amount RA receive from the media deal.

I am talking mostly about boys and it falls into a number of different areas. In league in NSW the NRL teams all have teams in SG Bull i.e. under 19 & Jersey Flegg i.e under 21. Many obviously not all players in SG Bull are from 16 , the NRL pays these players well, and if they have left...

error sorry

NRL salary cap 11.25 million in 24, increasing to 11.7 million by 2027. AFL salary cap, 13.5 million, Super Rugby Salary cap, 5.5 million, NRL 17 teams hoping to increase to 18 teams, AFL 18 teams hoping to increase to 20 teams. Both the NRL & AFL, can use rugby athletes. From around U 14 on both...

Both versions I said would fail and fail badly copped a lot of negative comments for saying it will fail. My reason it was top down from Pulver and from through to team selection about six months... BTW Pulver showed his smarts as Flower did the same think in about the same time and it failed...

Adam , Ghost and others. The existing model we have in Super Rugby, does not work and can't be fixed no matter how much re-organising is attempted. What is our model so we can define it. The Governing body of Rugby in Australia as accepted by the international rugby board, along with partner nations...

All depends on perception, EPL, NFL [US Gridiron}, AFL, all have national domestic competitions, all have different competitions formats. If fact most successful sports / codes have national competitions. We currently have five teams, mostly populated with Australian based players, if we...
