    ARLC Commission Changes

    The "talent" at the afl don't have to deal with private ownership, clubs are basically subservient under their license agreements, and the media are gushing fanboys. I will never forget the interview Gilligan did with Alan Jones over ASADA, the parrot had gil shitting himself until he made up...

    and Aquire Learning, he's fast finding out that you can't get away with cheap dodgy business practices in the real world, where optics will actually be scrutinised.

    Paul Kent Fact Check

    thought we could use a dedicated thread to fact check all the big declarations Paul Kent makes on NRL360, sure as shit know Ikin is to dumb to pull him up on it. I will kick it off with one from last night, according to Kent "the AFL make more money & spend less than the NRL". According to...

    It's like working at a sweatshop and having to pay to use the sowing machine, I wonder if they have to pay for skills classes with the trainers?

    ARLC Commission Changes

    RLPA want to include leagues club grants in share of NRL revenue, which is ridiculous. I find it odd that the clubs are so quiet on the cba, particularly since Kent claimed they saw through the NRL email to clubs and are now sided with the players. Yet old mate "unnamed club chairman" hasn't...

    It won't be repayable once license agreements have been signed. $400m is the low estimate for probably what the NRL deem are revenues attributable to the players and may exclude a whole host of things. It could also be revenue in the first year of the new rights cycle after the $50m advance is...

    Clubs are already involved with 4 ceos on committee negotiating the cba. Clubs aren't even united on cap, half of them want a big cap because most are backed by a leagues club, the other half, namely privately owned clubs, want a low cap so they have a higher grant to cover their losses and...

    their revenue is going to be at least $50m lower over 5yrs due to advance paid to clubs. Smith was regurgitating Gould's article, some of what he said was almost word for word.

    The digital pass has had ratings as high as 50k for games, you are kidding yourself if you think the majority of people will still be consuming sport via cable in 5 years time.

    Kent declared the game is "broke", seriously? What does he think the game is fighting over?

    The digital expense is going to be bagged by newscorp, since they're essentially setting up a rival platform to foxsports.

    ARLC Commission Changes

    Revenue sharing models can only include revenue sources derived directly or loosely from the players, they can't claim a share of revenue from government grants or player registrations etc. The NRL is doing what they are expected to do, get away with paying as little as possible. That's what...
