ALM/W TV deal

[NoMates]

NBL to go head to head with A-League on FTA, assuming it stays on Saturday.

And we need to air the marquee matches too, stop putting Macarthur home games on FTA!

Let’s see how they go up against Peppa Pig in the ratings.

In the back of my head I have the thought that Nine wanted A-League but offered $0. Not sure where I heard that, could be bs.

Channel 9/Stan??

It certainly makes sense because I reckon Nine Entertainment wants more football content, and the A-League needs more exposure. Nine could promote the league better, show more games on free TV, and attract new fans.

At the same time, having local matches alongside overseas football on Stan Sport keeps viewers engaged more. It’s a good fit: Nine grows its general football coverage, and the A-League becomes a bit more visible, relevant, and easier for Aussie Premier League fans to follow...

Maybe im clutching at straws but it sounds plausible?

Had to laugh, a young bloke is getting his debut at the last placed club in the NRL. It's been on every news on TV, it's plastered all over the papers, who knows what else. I wonder what would happen if a young bloke got his debut at WSW. Crickets......

Sounds good for fans but I’m guessing that the APL will go for the highest offer.

Its really shit that way isn't it?

Well NBL just went to Nine - I don't see a-league going there now for atleast a couple of years

yes - but only some marquee games will be on 9 - most will be on other fta channels The a league could do similar with marque games on 9 and others on Gem or Life or Rush or Go.

I don't see this happening but it would really push 9 as the sports channel to go to on Saturdays - especially with the EPL on Stan

I am baffled by the marketing decisions. I mean everytime someone debuts have a commentator interview their parents in the crowd during the game about how proud they are of their boy. Cut to them during pauses like corners or injuries and have their vocals only in a 2 minute interview over the action.

It isnt rocket science

I'm guessing that Nine will not even bid now.
