> [@BigVic](#): > > For 2022, SBS should look into sharing that year’s World Cup with Nine. > > Nine will not have any sport between November and December 2022 with Test cricket between AUS and SA on Seven under the new rights deal. This works in the UK with BBC and ITV sharing the rights. The Final can be shown on both SBS and Nine. The problem with that idea is as things stand, Nine has nothing they can offer SBS in return. As an example, SBS had discussions with Fox to [sublicence some of the 2010 World Cup](http://www.mediaweek.com.au/are-you-happy-losing-some-fta-world-cup-games-for-epl-matches/) but a deal never happened because Fox weren’t able/willing give up something in return By contrast, a major reason behind SBS entering into the Optus deal (aside from the cost considerations) was they got a weekly Premier League game in return for giving up some of the FIFA rights ---

Doing the maths, SBS has picked up 21 extra games which will take their overall total to 46 games - the schedule above indicates it’s 24 games but it doesn’t take into account the fact that next week, SBS would have [selected a game each day (aside from the Socceroos on Tuesday) to air](http://media.sbs.com.au/home/upload_media/site_20_rand_1747948970_media_release_sbs_release_match_broadcast_schedule_for_2018_fifa_world_cup_final_3_may.pdf) depending on the group standings heading into the final round of matches. The move also means Optus will have aired only 7 group stage matches exclusively compared to the [scheduled 33](https://www.optus.com.au/about/media-centre/media-releases/2018/051/australian-viewers-able-to-access-all-64-2018-fifa-world-cup-matches-on-optus-sport) ---

Optus Exclusives: Egypt v Uruguay (day 2) Morocco v Iran (day 2) Peru v Denmark (day 3) Argentina v Iceland (day 3) Croatia v Nigeria (day 3) Costa Rica v Serbia (day 4) Brazil v Switzerland (day 4) There’s 48 Group stage matches, so 41 on SBS. Optus have half of the round of 16 and quarters exclusively. Means Optus have 13 exclusively, SBS are covering the remaining 51. ---
