  1. SBS proving to be the little Network that can. Picking up sports rights here and there. Yes, simulcasting quite a few but I think that’s going to be the way sports rights work going forward. Outside of netball and cricket I can’t think of a sport that is only FTA these days- and they both have online platforms to view them.
    Congrats SBS, keep up the good work!
