Sky Sports extends its deal for 5 years of international rugby meaning that BT sports cant get their hands on it. This would mean deal will stay until 2020 leading another world cup series for SKY, the 150 fixture-a-year deal includes the rugby championship . The reason why SKY does this was because BT had right to the heinekan cup which is big to Europe. In july, the BBC and ITV join each other to make sure that SKY does not win the rights to the six nations.
1.The 150 fixture-a-year deal includes the Rugby Championship, the annual tournament between New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and Argentina, as well as the domestic rugby competitions including Super Rugby, ITM Cup, the Currie Cup and the National Rugby Championship.
2.The deal offers the world best teams
3.150 games a year
In my opinion i believe that SKY is making a smart move as to stopping BT as they bought football Europa league and champions league. This is good that SKY is buying Rugby international because its what everyone really loves as to seeing their country play. Rugby has got popular as to the nations and would be really good as to the viewer ship would be high and i believe that BBC and ITV should get the six nations as to making it fair also that BT have premiership rugby is good making it even have different type of rugby types making very precise what the audience can want.
