    News own it and want the NRL to administer it. That is what they have wanted since day one with the ARL. It is quite sickening actually. I can't see us ever be rid of these leaches.

    NRLW TV ratings killing AFLW

    It was good of V'landys to take a smaller deal from the broadcasters so they could give the money to AFL so they can grow their game, such as AFLW. Good on you Saint Pete:rolleyes:
