Then the game will always be destined to struggle, hefully someone at the nrl hq understands that you can't kill the golden goose, that is the game itself and the fans who buy into it.
There is more money for clubs in memberships, merch and ticket sales than in tv and LC grants combined if they can grow their customer base sufficently
Of course there will compromise to ensure tv feels it is getting value for money and a return on its investment but you dont compromise on the very fabric of live sport, which is fan attendance.
"There is more money for clubs in memberships,merch and ticket sales than in TV and LC Grants".
If that were the case and it's not,the NRL would have insisted on a better scheduling ,knowing full well they would get less on Tv monies.
If each club had 50,000 season members,you may have a valid point.
