Is channel 9 going broke? - not anymore.

No Channel 9 as we new it is gone and the "newly owned" Channel 9 is alive, maybe not all that well.
I still believe that the 5 year deal is under threat and my tip is Channel 9 wont be there after next year.
You dont get blood out of a stone and 9 have been going ratsh!t with the pittence they have been forking out.....Now double it(plus some more) and the new owners arent happy.
Anyway thats my take and im un informed with no allegiences other to Manly.

9 is now in a far better position. You are quite right that there are new owners. Crucially its those same owners that now have an investment in the network rather than an oustanding debt obligation.

The NRL deal is safe. What owner is going to risk their newly found assett by killing their most important sports media deal (let alone the contract legalities)

As old owner, CVC is the one burnt in this deal.
