Earlier this week, GRNSW CEO Tony Mestrov was joined trackside at Wentworth Park by Melbourne Storm superstar Ryan Papenhuyzen and leading Fox League identities Bryan Fletcher and Nathan Hindmarsh for the announcement.
“This is tremendous news for our industry,” Mestrov said.
“Fox League and their unique coverage of rugby league fits that 18-35 demographic which our research has shown is where interest in greyhound racing has surged.
“We realised there was a strong link between the two sports some time ago, and that was one of the reasons behind GRNSW signing one of the game’s superstars, Ryan Papenhuyzen, as our sport’s latest ambassador.
I'd imagine Fox is getting a kickback.
