I wonder how this effects Sky TV (NZ), BT (UK) etc?

Also, as a side note, with the clubs now dictating rules, will that mean that the Nix finally get the chance to play FFA Cup games in NZ?

Nix's tweet about it said "New Zealand broadcast details will be confirmed in the coming months."

FFA Cup is run by Football Australia, so our entry will still be on their terms
Could be that something similar to what is happening in Australia will be the case here too with most A-League games available on the new Paramount Plus streaming service which launches in NZ as well as Australia on August 11.
Cheap too at $A 8.99 / month in Australia.

US giant Viacom-CBS owns Aussie free-to-air broadcaster Channel 10 as well as Paramount Plus, so one A-League game per week will screen on Channel 10 in Australia.
Maybe most A-League games will stream on Paramount Plus here in NZ with the Phoenix's matches also screening on Sky TV each week?
After all, it's Viacom-CBS (Channel 10; Paramount Plus) who now own the A-League rights and you'd think they'd put the A-League games on their own service Paramount Plus which is launching simultaneously in NZ as well as Oz.
