    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    Sounds like Ayres has done the dirty again and claimed additional NRL content commitment to SFS to inflate it's business case. He was originally punted by Baird because he would tell clubs one thing, and tell government another. The 'Minister for the SCG Trust' is the only reason the process has...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    Not only that, he was reading from a prepared release, obviously some numbnut consultant wrote it and Grant was ignorant enough not to know it was wrong.

    ARLC Commission Changes

    Why the f**k would Beattie show Rothfield the games financial information every three months? The fat f**k probably can't even count to potato. The clubs have a right to know, the states have a right to know, and they will, in commission meetings from their representatives. For everyone else we...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    It can't be until new tv deal kicks in, and only if that deal is greater, the game can't afford it before then. People thought Grant was too hands on & always looking for the spotlight, they ain't seen nothin yet! Beattie thinks he's Premier again, I will bet we will hear more from him than we...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    the biggest issue is the NSWRL, because it's not an independent body, it's controlled by NSW clubs. Tally that up with them having unfettered powers on the commission and clubs could essentially veto anything they don't like through the NSWRL. You only have to look at the way the NSWRL has been...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    She was on the NRL Board as an appointee of news corp. It would be the best outcome for everyone if Page & Vlandys were appointed independents while the clubs go back to the drawing board on the constitutional reform. The game gets two very good commissioners and the clubs get one of their...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    Good, hope it fails. Giving states more power, and putting them on the commission, is crazy. Once they are there they can never be removed, because that would require changes to the constitution, which states would just veto. The whole reason they have struggled to get changes over the line is...

    2SM and Talkin' Sport.

    Some old Victorian called Normy rang up to brag about the crowd to the wafl game in perth, not one of these numbnuts pulled him up on it being a gold coin entry, including free public transport, and people were only going to see the new stadium. The old guy then started to go on about melbourne...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    They couldn't and didn't, the NRL give Nine permission. The whole deal was basically done again, but Nine benefited because they already had a contract with a maximum outlay and any reworking of the deal was always going to leave them paying less, with fox picking up the shortfall in the...

    the bits in that article about Morris made Roy sound even more paranoid & senile than usual.

    The QRL completely f**ked up their sponsorship portfolio & gave away the naming rights for $100k

    Pretty much, and also so they know who to attack/lobby.

    ARLC Commission Changes

    It's not Grant in this instance imo, there's an obvious club split, those outside NSW & Wests Tigers who voted for Pert, vs the rest of the nsw clubs. The process of constitutional reform has been a shambles from the start and it's pretty damning for the game that these same powerbrokers will...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    I still doubt that the changes to the constitution will be ratified in their current form, it will only take two clubs to vote against it and when there are six voting for someone else to represent them there is obviously a split already amongst the clubs & a concern about protecting their...

    Aarghhhhh! Annoying AFL loving Victorian Emma Freedman joins Fox League team https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl-premiership/emma-freedman-joins-fox-league-team/news-story/c65aca8e9dcc4f325a05088c7388d884

    if this was really about the charities they would have their name on the front, not crown. I can't get my head around this game, it's just so self-serving and greedy. Rugby League is a team sport, to play a game that lines the pockets of the two highest paid players in the game is disgusting. I...

    ARLC Commission Changes

    Harris sums up the biggest detriment to the games growth. "The disappointment for me has been that there are a small group of powerbrokers who sit outside Rugby League Central and think they own our game, sadly they have a pathological incapacity to recognise opportunity when it presents...
