    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Last time i looked Government was based in Canberra. This is not China, Albo does not make decisions for the national interest on his own. Its a Canberra/national idea.

    Former RL players can make more out of Boxing than actually UFC stars. The difference in pay between Boxing and MMA is very large.

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    1st year of Pacific Cup. It will build over the next 20 years. Add in PNG to the NRL along with another NZ team down the track will also help the Cup. I think its been good considering its the first year. Some lessons learned over the first iteration of the Cup, things will get better from here.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    NRL Kayo 98% Nine Bvod Would make up the rest. So the NRL ratio is not the lowest, with 9 bvod it would be one of the highest ratio's. It would make sense that the ratio would be higher for AFL streaming on Fox due to not having a competing stream on 7. Where as the NRL on Kayo has a...

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    ''RL would die to have a crowd like that.'' RL holds the record at the ground in normal configuration. hahahaha In rectangular mode with 5k extra seating the Bledisloa between Aus/NZ holds the ground record.

    PNG's back.

    PNG bid 600m in funding. WA bid $0 in funding from the WA government and on going losses for decades. PNG first then Perth next once the WA premier comes to the table with a package.

    The NRL rights deal kicks in this year. So NRL will be around the 650m mark not including the new Hotel revenue. You also left out the part about the NRL investing only 50m of its planned 300m worth of investments. While the AFL have lifted revenue by investing over 270m in marvel with a...

    AFL investments 250m Marvel stadium, revenue from said investment approximately 140m from attendance and sponsorship. AFL government grant of 100m for marvel stadium refurb. (2 100m grants over 2022 and 2023) NRL investments found so far 50m, funds to invest at this very moment 200m Once the...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Year 2015 Vic racing 361m includes tabcorp NSW racing 119m + tabcorp 150m 270m or 90m behind. 2022 Vic racing 572m includes Tabcorp NSW racing 378m + Tabcorp ? Not sure how much of that 311m to owners is Tabcorp. Going by the prize money on offer in NSW races, i would say NSW racing is in...

    Plan, the NRL has 200m sitting in the Bank waiting for good investments. NRL investments 2 (Quest Hotel, Gambaro Hotel) (50m) AFL investments 1 (Marval) (250m) So yeah its not a quick thing to find good investments. Especially now in the current economic climate.

    NRL 350m planned property assets (50m so far) Bad AFL 300m property assets (Marval) Good. Perth red shut up you clown.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    I would suggest watch the whole podcast but for those with less time watch from the 123m mark, Gus thinks the game is going to go through a golden era soon. The potential for the game internationally is massive. The fact Gus is excited about it makes me very excited.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    Its already funded to the tune of 7m a year. PNG will also receive funding up to 25m a year for 10 years. I am sure the next broadcast deal will reflect the increased ratings and extra content the NRL is bringing to the table. (NRLW, Pacific championship and a possible extra NRL game every week)

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    1990 Broncos/Manly at SFS semi final was 31k. So by your logic the NRL should force clubs to play at the SFS due to a finals game held there 30 years ago. Brain dead take. We did not have a venue in WS that could hold more than 30k in the 90's mate. No good reason why a WS team would take a...

    We are not in the 90's Pal, cannot believe i have to tell you this. hahaha We are in the year 2023 with record crowd averages across the league. Much higher than the 90's Pal. And your 35k Broncos/Manly was 31k and it was for a Semi final. Finals have very little to do with building regular...
