GAAGO - Rebel Strike (again)

[Vladimir The Bear]

The packages are set for expression of interest, so hurling only is not on the table from them

"Packages ‘five’ and ‘six’ are understood to be back on the table. Package ‘five’ includes two All-Ireland football quarter-finals fixed for Saturday evenings, one Munster hurling championship game and a further three championship games in the Sam Maguire and Liam MacCarthy Cups.

Package ‘six’ has an eight-game offering, incorporating provincial and Sam Maguire/Liam MacCarthy Cup games to be broadcast on Saturday evenings."

Sounds very messy. Is there any league games incorporated into these packages.

Do RTE have to pay for the other 4 packages, or get them for free?

4 million

Great news.
Takes away the excuse made last time that no other tv stations were interested in the rights. (Or so we were led to believe).

I foolishly thought they were getting some sort of reimbursement for that.

How naive of me.

Contacted on Wednesday, the GAA did not refer to the approach to RTÉ to buy their GAAGO share but acknowledged the championship media rights deals would be retained.
