An NRL game between two major Sydney teams rates well down the leaderboard on a night when there is no other sport. Isn’t that some kind of story in itself. How much did Nine pay for the rights?

Hi Jet,

To clarify that NRL match was only shown in Sydney and Brisbane on the main channel, not all five capital cities. For Sydney it was the most watched thing on TV last night, while it was top 10 for Brisbane.

Cheers,
