Channel Nine gives the NRL (and Toddy No Mates) both barrels.

[The Skeez]

In the other code, there is constructive talk between all parties to come up with a feasible plan to bring their footy back. Possibly even play everyday of the week to make up for lost time and dominate the screens of footy starved viewers.

Meanwhile, over at Nine. Cancel this season

It's all just 9, NRL, Foxtel ...negotiating.
Each wants the best for itself.
V'landys apologised twice to 9 Marks in the meeting the other day...think I read.
Once for the NRL's past 'sins'...and once for 9's perceived thought that it had been left out of discussions about the future.
9 said it's committed to the NRL going forward...just not this season preferably.
IMO...NRL needs 9, 9 needs NRL, NRL needs Foxtel, Foxtel needs NRL.

"Channel 7 has reached out to the NRL".

Yes, welcome CH 7.

9 bosses might not be happy with Marks if he loses them the NRL.
They weren't happy with what happened at 9's radio station 2GB...Chris Smith basically forced out.
Jones/Hadley contract negotiations drama.
Heads rolled.
