    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    Not sure what the attachment was but it all depends on the package. If 5 NRL rounds are cut but we get a similar number of NRL games due to extra teams PLUS we get an expanded Pacific Championships with four nations in each division four games a weekend plus a final that we see all rate well...

    Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

    Why is every kid that plays both codes a Union junior? f**k they are delusional. I'll give them a pass on this one though because Bassingthwaighte is the most Union name of all time

    The Game 2025 Membership

    Geez that's alright, I'll have to check out if the Phins or Bronx do a digital membership.

    Pacific Championships 2024

    I used to live in Buenos Aires, nice place but Sydney shits all over it, especially if you are an NRL player earning hundreds of thousands of dollars a year

    Completely agree with Ikin here. Ipswich is a no brainer. Population is booming, RL is absolutely dominant out that way and the club could be ready to go straight away. Interesting that he mentioned Ipswich Jets, Toowoomba Clydesdales and Easts Tigers as feeder clubs for the Western Corridor...

    Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

    At this point, are the Wallabies better off bidding to be team 20 in the NRL? Then they might be able to keep their squad together

    Pacific Championships 2024

    What's Union going to hold on to once the Kangaroos are bigger than the Wallabies and our world cup actually starts to grow and make money off the back of what's being built with the Pacific Championships?

    Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

    Not sure he's going to turn the Wallabies fortunes around or make the Bledisloe ratings go from 450k back over a million where they used to be

    Pacific Championships 2024

    The scenes in Tonga in 2017 and 2019 plus the scenes in Samoa in 2022 made it quite clear that an impact is being made on the islands. Pathways need to be setup but that is the work ahead of the NRL. Engage the new interest into a professional pathway. The other thing that is good for the game...

    2024 Crowd Watch

    Probably tied to the Fijian Drua funding

    Pacific Championships 2024

    I agree on France. But Samoa, Tonga and Fiji have really kick started RL in their home nations and the fruits of that will be felt in the decades to come

    Pacific Championships 2024

    With international player pay the same now no matter which country they play for and with some very good Pacific Islander players committing long term to their country of heritage it's probably a good time to turn the switching rule off and open up Origin to all eligible players. Give everyone...

    Pacific Championships 2024

    I've got a Kiwi mate whose son just debued for the Titans, he's eligible for NZ and Australia and Origin seems to be the thing that has him on the fence. It would be nice if he could do both because he is both a New Zealander but also a product of the QLD RL system having grown up here. The...

    Pacific Championships 2024

    I'm in favour of Kiwis and Poms playing Origin provided they are Origin eligible. Radley and AFB are two that come to mind

    WA BEARS

    That's probably a fair take on how it played out

    WA BEARS

    But there's three spots up for grabs, not just one
  17. titoelcolombiano

    WA BEARS

    Yes because Dolphins as an example are less risky a prospect than Perth. The licence fee and financials outplayed in the bid would have been the NRL assessing what each bid can bring to the table
  18. titoelcolombiano

    WA BEARS

    It's also called a bid. Consider it like an auction. As we are seeing now, Cummins wasn't the NRL's only option in WA

    WA BEARS

    I'd say the location was something the NRL was keen on due to the size of the city and government support on offer

    Pacific Championships 2024

    There's a little old country called England that's pretty competitive too
