They moved to a new ground but the team is still part time (in super league)

they won’t be making the cut for the new franchised league

their game is run by donkeys

thats why its a basketcase

A closed league with the strongest clubs will be best approach, which I'm thinking IMG is moving towards. If NRL takes over then a broadcast deal & grant is what's needed.

Aussies won’t make much difference they can sort it out themselves

NRL is investing in hotels. If price is right NRL will buy it.

Hotel makes money

super league consumes money

wait till we have one billion in property assets

super league tried to get a private equity deal they offered like 30 million pounds for 30 percent equity

super league tv deal is around 22 million pounds pa for the whole league

NRL will have to think they can generate better deals & the acquisition will ad value to it's brand. Superleague will be 13 clubs at best.

This kind of talk is ten or twenty years too early

nrl isn’t financial enough now to make a huge difference

everyone wants to see a stronger super league

NRL have been talking about it for a few years now. It'll be sooner rather than later.

You could be right

I should know never to bet against pvl

if he thinks it’s a winner then sure go for it

If somebody is asking you to buy it then I think it's advantage NRL. Wonder if nrl wants to partner someone in this like Murdoch?!
