18th club, whose next?

Yeah it will be interesting to see how the $600 million is spent.

95%: Fact finding missions, corporate lunches, workshops.

5% player development.

 

[Wb1234]

You think that in the $600m is some sort of asset.

If they get a CoE that they sell naming rights too
A hotel

that with the grant should see them atleast keep heads above water

Plus the players resort will be theirs

 

[AlwaysGreen]

The delusion from the peanut gallery never ceases to amaze me.

If the corporates are getting on board why the need for 600mill? How far do you think this 600mil will spread in 10 years? You want to build a resort, a CoE, upgrade the stadium etc, you're gunna have f**k all left.

Of course I'm forgetting the 1 million members contributions

I'm 100% against png but surely $600 million goes further in a 3rd world country?

Albo should be picking members of his cabinet from the members of this forum that post on his thread

@Get Rid of The Donkeys can be the new foreign minister to png

Is it ok if he is based in Cairns though?

I doubt either govt is about just handing the cash over, So how it is allocated is likely key to how they survive post Govt bail out

Ask the cowboys lol

Yes. You are also slightly improving standards over that time so in 2040 they are in a better place to fund themselves then in 2030... that is the theory anyway

Look at the Hilton they built in Port Moresby for $400m as an example

just under half goes to the nrl team directly

building an athletes village is included in the figure

plus the bribe to nrl clubs to accept it

 

[Iamback]

All pathways lead to the bears.

Not in this case. They have QCup team, they have 12 team national comp. That is a decent starting point

Compared to NZ 2 and Perth anyway

They are building pathways systems modelled on the panthers

NRL clubs are like PNG pollies: want their cut

So the Hilton with 200 rooms cost $400m, but the village big enough for the families of about 50 players, coaches and other staff is going to cost about less than $300m, and that'd leave no other funding for the team.

Currently the Aust Govt is paying them $5m for junior development. If that continues, The NRL grant is $3m over the cap.
NRL cover travel for the teams

Then how much more do they need on a year on year basis?

Exactly

 

[Wb1234]

Yes they are going to be building a 400 room Hilton hotel to house the players

the stupidity never ceases
