Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2340969, member: 1764"] First James Packer buys a shitload of shares, and now Lachlan Murdoch wants a slice of the pie. [url="http://www.news.com.au/business/lachlan-murdoch-wants-a-piece-of-tens-pie/story-e6frfm1i-1225944432727"]http://www.news.com.au/business/lachlan ... 5944432727[/url] This may have implications for rugby league given the TV rights deal goes up for grabs in the next year. Both Packer and Murdoch have had significant interest in Rugby League in the past, and I'm sure they'd see the League rights as a big value add for their network. Of course there's speculation they also want to boost Ten's share of the AFL rights they currently share with 7. Still, I think it's good news. They're astute businessmen. They won't let the opportunity to jag the number 1 rating football code (TV wise) go without giving it a shot. [/QUOTE]
