    Where does the Kangaroos player payments come from?

    It doesn't matter what the A in ARLC means. They are still tied to a collective bargaining agreement which applies to all NRL contracted players, regardless of nationality. That is the only place I can think where the Kangaroos get the money to pay players the amounts they do - as they have no...

    Where does the Kangaroos player payments come from?

    Ok, so let's say it is $10k per test. Still, where does this money come from when the Kangaroos have no major sponsor?

    Where does the Kangaroos player payments come from?

    With players like Semi Radradra choosing to play for Australia because of the $30k match payments, I am curious to know where the ARL get this money from? My thinking is if 18 players earn the same amount for a test match, that is costing the ARL over $500k per test match. As the Kangaroos...

    How is Test match revenue distributed?

    I'm aware that the revenue generated by the 4Nations is divided evenly between ARL, NZRL & RFL, but how is revenue for tours like the current Kiwi tour divided? For example, does the RFL and NZRL split all gate-takings, sponsorship & TV revenue? If that's the case, 4 sell-out crowds and a...

    Hi guys I am a club member for the Titans and want to go to the pacific test double-header in May at CBUS. The members pre-sale starts today, but I was never sent the pre-sale password from the club. If anyone was emailed the password, could you please pm me? Many thanks in advance.

    NRL club entrance music

    I've noticed for some time that many clubs (if not all) now use a standard entrance theme when they come onto the pitch for game. My apologies if this thread has been done before, but I was going to compile a list of each clubs entrance theme. So far I can think of: Manly- Eagle Rock Souths-...

    More locals

    I know we all need Carty and Searle booted from the joint, but we also need to bring more locals into the club, or at least more Queenslanders. I think we really struggle to attract fans and sponsors from SE Qld because we're seen as a bit of a Clayton's Qld club. Our coach is a rusted-on...

    Big centres shouldn't always become forwards

    Watching big Dave Taylor tonight, he is playing some career-best footy. Big impact and plenty of minutes. Coaches have struggled to get the most from him throughout his career, but IMO he keeps being played in the wrong position. He is a big bloke, yes. But he isn't a forward- he is just a big...

    QLD Losing Sook and Whinge thread 2014

    Interesting the opening poster has listed that he/she lives in Qld. Obviously we can't be too bad of a state if you're happy to live here.

    Queensland team for this year

    No surprises there. How anyone can criticise the team is kidding themselves. Why would you change such a successful team? 9 straight coming up.

    Sunday Games in Sydney

    Exactly. Supposedly it's the National Rugby League- not the Sydney Rugby League. The sport does not start and end at the suburban boundaries of Sydney. At least 2-3 Sydney clubs need to be axed and replaced with interstate clubs to secure to viability of the comp in the long term (I.e. Next...

    Queensland team for this year

    Well Guerra will replace Thaiday, but reports suggest Qld may dump Papalli and select Lillyman. However I can't see Mal dumping Papalli. Mal will be loyal to last year's team

    Queensland team for this year

    According to the press, Aiden Guerra will replace the injured Thaiday in the only change to the team that won game 3 last year.

    Queensland team for this year

    After 9 years, I thought everyone would know enough about Mal to know what the team will be. The team picked on Tuesday will be identical to the team that won game 3 last year. The only change will be an injury to Sam Thaiday, who looks set the be ruled out. I expect Kennedy will replace him...

    John Cartwright. That is all.
