Just listening live to the AFL media conference. AFL have accepted Nine's (PBL's) bid with for the Broadcast rights. Seven/Ten to have first and last rights of reply/refusal. The Nine bid includes "enhanced coverage in capital cities and regional areas in NSW and QLD" rumor is that SBS are to show footy live into Sydney and Brisbane on Friday nights but this cannot be revealed until the time that Seven have to reply (14 calendar days)is up, but 9 would have the right to palm off up to 4 games per week to free to air and pay tv broadcasters. This does not include internet or 3G broadcast rights. $780 million over 5 years. It is about 50% more than the existing amount for the rights.
