The Financial Review reports that Nine and RA are on the verge of signing a new agreement after Nines board approved a five-year broadcast deal worth more than $210 million to air Wallabies, Wallaroos, and Super Rugby matches across Channel Nine and subscription streaming service Stan.
Nine’s previous agreement with Rugby Australia was worth about $150 million over five years in cash and free advertising.
The deal is rumoured to include cash incentives worth up to 30 million depending on the performance of the Wallabies and Super Rugby teams.
