    Question on Peter V'landys

    In my opinion V’landys has a pass mark. It’s incredible that the media say he’s doing an amazing job. It’s funny because John grant And Beattie were smashed by the media and others on here for apparently being so public. But geez since V’landys has taken over, for a chairman he has been...

    Media agenda

    From where I’m standing again it’s portrayed as either the nrl fault or the players are being greedy. The gutless media are to scared to tell the truth. What about the clubs?? You want mismanagement, salary cap cheating, drug possession, inflated football departments, overpaying players...

    Impact of Corona shutdowns on Future NRL expansion..

    I thought the same thing!! maybe because the panthers got what they needed and can now move on. There is no way they would of got the packer funding and state and federal funding without the junior numbers they were happy to talk up. very poor form by the panthers

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    Plenty of people on here constantly whinged about Beattie and John Grant being media tarts but I must say even V’landys is giving them a good shake. Greenberg couldn’t get a word in this morning at the press conference.

    2023-2028 next tv deal discussion

    look I get what your saying but as the afl and WA Perth reds will attest too, money isn’t the only answer. Support from the government, broadcast & media partners (seven media seems to have Perth locked down), stadium, airfares and CoE facilities are all needed too and some would say are worth...

    2023-2028 next tv deal discussion

    I really do hope that V’landys is using this as a negotiation tactic. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to realize that not only will adding a 17th team not add extra content, but will also stuff up the current bye periods around SOO. But if nine and fox are willing to pay $100-$150 mil...

    RIP NRL

    Agree with all above. Yes a difficult predicament. Do fans want the right call or a wrong call? Raiders where happy to accept the referees decision when vinuvalu arm was called out with a minute to go in the finals. Didn’t hear much after the game about Lailua blowing an absolute sitter either...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Well V’landys will need all the propaganda he can muster to be able to get himself out of the sh!t fight he has himself in. Not a good start in the nrl. I’d prefer Beattie start in not understanding a question over V’landys issues at the moment.

    The NRL will consider bringing broadcast production in-house

    somone a lot smarter than me will know the exact costs of producing 1 nrl game but if done right it will give the nrl the freedom every fan wants it to have. This is what helps the afl because they play all there games at mcg or marvel. I thought that it would be a smart idea to get stadium...

    The NRL will consider bringing broadcast production in-house

    I think the nrl already produce there own content. The pm13’s was only shown by nrl.com and so are most of the internationals played in Australia over the next couple weeks. Fox and nine currently pick and choose what they want to broadcast and get it for cost. All advertising revenue is cream...

    The NRL will consider bringing broadcast production in-house

    I’ve spoken about this in another thread a few months ago but not only should nrl expand their media department to production especially for bankwest and a roving production team. They should also consider expanding their intellectual property to the super league. Create a international company...

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    Win or lose I really hope that Croker has been worded up about throwing gws Barr under the bus with a jt style civic stadium proposal.

    NRL announce higher than expected surplus

    I knew about this but was wondering how they actually implement it. My understand is that the nrl keeps the amount that they expect to make (proposed budget) and then the extra amount above what is expected then gets divided amongst the 4 areas. So my take is, that the proposed budget...

    2018-2022 Media Deal $ Value

    To hear channel 10 wants in is very good news. To change the topic abit..... would it be an idea to do a deal with whoever the Ptv/streaming company is that gets the rights, has a club membership deal either built into the cost or can add the membership number in and receive extra benefits...

    Brisbane Bombers Bid

    I think there is 2 different issues at play. The broadcasters want a second Brisbane team that will bring a large amount of viewers and ratings. Which means they couldn’t care less where they play. But I accept they would like Suncorp for ease of production costs. The nrl needs a team in...

    Rationalisation of Sydney

    What I find funny is Todd Greenberg was parachuted Into the ceo role because he was going to be “perfect” for the nrl. He had all the media and Sydney clubs on his side as well. There were big hopes for him. Since those days, the media and clubs have turned on him. I think it says more about...

    2019 Finals scheduling news

    You the full quid? Are you actually blaming the nrl and channel 9 for esbeatos found at brookvale?

    2019 Finals scheduling news

    This could go 2 ways, either it is the beginning of the end or the start of the revival. This seems straight out of the scg trust playbook. Except the scg trust had a Plan and this seems to be a surprise for manly and the council.

    2019 Crowd Watch

    Maybe that’s the difference between the nrl and afl. Most nrl fans want to bash the code and point out issues any chance they get. A sellout sounds better than saying 26963 turned up. Where as the afl will say it’s a sellout with 15k short. And the fans keep pedaling the bullish!t. I guess they...
