Nine prices rugby at $10 a month as streaming sport battle begins
Nine Entertainment Co’s streaming platform Stan has unveiled key details of its expansion into sport as it prepares to fight News Corp’s Kayo Sports for subscribers...............
https://www.smh.com.au/business/comp...27-p56x9u.html
Another rehash story - but with more detail. One interesting point is the reference to Kayo's intention to make some sports available for free on it's platform. There has been a bit of speculation that this could be used by Fox to meet anti-siphoning requirements. For example; at some point in the future Fox could be the sole rights holder to NRL matches by making mandated FTA obligations available as freebies on their platform. How this fits with current legislation, I don't know. But I'm suppose a CEO like V'Landys could punch it into shape, if required.

I just signed into my STAN account and was offered a 30 free trial of STAN Sports starting on 18th Feb with an ongoing cost of $10/Month.
Stan has them all as Coming Soon...
I saw a code for Free 1 month Stan Sport trial on the Wallabies Instagram last night.
Unsure if it's still there
Anyone who signs up gets first month free - I already had Stan.
Yep, I just signed up without any code today and got the offer (which I think was for a limited time, dunno when it ends) of a 30-day free trial of the Sport package to start when the channel launches IIRC from Feb 19th.
This would mean 4 or 5 rounds of SR Au on the free Sport trial, depending what date you join.
Also note that it seems you can still get HD sport added to the $10 Basic Stan (SD) subscription (which also has a free 30-day trial) so you can get the remaining few months of the season at $20/month.

So getting rid of Fox, but still want to watch Gallagher & Top 14 French English rugby. Not keen on having to sign up to yet another service.
Top 14 was on Eurosport IIRC. Fox dropped that a couple years ago. Just one of reasons I flicked them - used to watch a lot of winter sports.
