Optus.

They thought about the idea for about 30 seconds in 2016 before realizing what the actual production costs were going to be, and how difficult it would be for them to provide the sort of coverage at even the Fox standard. So yeah, that's not happening any time soon.

Says you, nothing factual. Optus has money and isn't in dept like Foxtel.

Of course it's factual, it was reported at the time. Optus don't produce content, they just buy it. Producing content brings a whole new layer of cost, with things like equipment, labour, compliance, etc.  Not to mention that if you don't have experience in doing it, potential for things to go wrong increase manifestly.

But yeah, Fox isn't in great shape at the moment, and that's not good news for the league.
