David Higgins: Duco Events Founder on the competition for rugby broadcasting rights

There's competition over the rugby broadcast rights.  British streaming disruptor DAZN is reportedly being courted by New Zealand Rugby.  Talks with Sky have been dragging on – it's understood the broadcaster's offered $85 million dollars a year to renew, a smaller bid than its current deal of $111 million a year.  Duco Events founder David Higgins told Mike Hosking he believes people would pay for DAZN just for the rugby – initially.  He says they'd have to get everything right, including having the players become interesting stars, not robots.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
