    News Coronavirus and NRL

    That's all fine and dandy to maintain there level of income v spending for the short term but if networks tighten their purse strings and a massive media rights deal doesn't eventuate next time round, that debt could suddenly become a noose

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    I'll also note how despite a much more precarious financial situation the RFL and the club's presented a positive front with a quick response and whole of game management strategy to get through it. The club's are also very engaged in social media etc.... With competitions and looking to keep...

    Richo for NRL CEO!!!

    I just ho My only hope all of this is that the watchnrl app which is the best thing to ever happen for fans residing outside Australia and NZ is still operating. The sleeves at news seem to have their eye on the NRL digital ops and I don't trust PVL. Does anyone have richos blueprint from...

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    I follow a lot of sports and see how most sports have responded around the world. Australian rugby league is the only one I can see where a) it's clubs are looking at rebellion during a time of societal and code crisis and b) it's commercial partners are seeking to tear up agreements to their...

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    my feelings on such a reorganisation of the games structure by conspiracy from the club's and TV powerbrokers will finish me with the professional game in Australia.

    News Coronavirus and NRL

    What is absolutely bizarre in the article is the statement about nine hoping or wanting to influence the club's into having more influence in the running of the game. I find such statements utterly unbelievable that a media organisation thinks it can make these dictations. I see this as them...

    WCC news

    I enjoyed it well enough, I thought if saints had there full strength squad they might just have popped it but overall the roosters deserves the win and saints just didn't take the chances that presented

    2019 Super League

    Isn't the championship great. A semi in Toulouse one week and a final in Toronto the next. Definitely positives in performance of Salford and hopefully now Toronto to close out the playoff final as well. Fair play to Featherstone they have had a quick turnaround and beyond normal travel and...

    2019 Super League

    Will there be more at the Toronto final than the super League GF qualifier? Certainly looks a diabolical crowd at Wigan and that's with Salford selling 3500 odd tickets. Couldn't be many more Wigan fans from the TV angles I have seen

    2019 championship & league one..

    For optics sale in a VERY liberal city has made the right call. He is still principle investor and will hopefully find the right person for CEO and chairman going forward. I don't get the whole central funding questions. I hear the super League may become 14 teams, well surely then that would...

    New York and Ottawa

    There's arguably more chance of a pro team in Belgrade than Paris and Lyon. A more likely EURO conference imo would be;. Toulouse, Catalans, Red Star, Avignon. If not Red star then surely Caracassone would be next in line in terms of club strength and performance

    2019 championship & league one..

    London has done well enough considering its relative isolation. The likes of Perth have shown you can build a stable junior setup from the ground up (even without a pro side present). The powers that be need pull the successful experiences together and work out a plan to push the game into new...

    I had a thought a few days ago along similar lines 20 teams 4x 5 team divisions A- North America B- France/Europe C- england 1 D- england 2 Have H&A in your division then each other division once for 23 games. division winners and runners up in a 8 team knockout finals series. "world super...

    If your up for it yes please. Sadly in my area which is quite rural in northern Ireland there isn't the opportunity to get it in the shops. Was actually thinking of a subscription. Would you recommend it ahead of RL world?

    GB Lions Tour 2019

    The bit I don't get is that I thought the big 3 stakeholders agrees on a loose calendar for the next cycle but when it comes to the crunch and they realise games actually have to be played to fulfil it then there's an issue?

    Yeah I really don't get the attitude of throwing all the eggs in first time promotion basket at the expense of the longevity of the club. To me the league they have the mechanism correct in p&r but should be looking at two smaller more elite divisions rather than cramming 26 clubs of a vast...

    2019 Membership

    Good to see continued growth, but i can't help but feel its really only converting the hardened fan into a fully fledged member. The clubs and NRL need to focus on getting the casual fan into stadiums to lift crowds across the board and drive a better aesthetic for the game. That in turn would...
