Australian Rugby League Commission, also known as ARL, is a privately owned entity headquartered in Australia. Founded in 1986, the organization operates with approximately 10 employees and reported $113,956 in revenue as of 2023. The company functions as a tier 3 media tech buyer. It operates as an Australian rugby league football competition operator, administering the Australian national team and representing Australia in international rugby league matters, specializing in contact sports.
Tensions between the AFL and NRL have resurfaced, with AFL chief executive Andrew Dillon stating on July 8 that Rugby League's new broadcast deal will benefit the AFL by boosting prospects for larger TV contracts in the future. This follows reports on the same day that the Nine Network's deal with the NRL nearly collapsed after Karl Stefanovic hosted a controversial guest on his podcast, despite the broadcaster's significant investment to secure free-to-air rights. Earlier on July 8, Peter V’Landys confirmed he would serve as the NRL’s interim executive chairman for one week before deciding on a full-time commitment. This appointment came after NRL CEO Andrew Abdo announced in May his departure after six years in the role, with V'Landys taking leave from Racing NSW to assume the interim position. On July 7, the NRL, Nine, and Foxtel finalized what has been described as the most lucrative sports rights deal in Australian history, with Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany departing a press conference at the sport's Moore Park base shortly after its conclusion.
