It’s strange that Crown Resorts is back so soon after being so sure that they didn’t want to do sponsorship anymore.

All the Canterbury Cup jerseys. That North Sydney jersey is mint! Newtown look like they belong in Super League with the amount on sponsors.

So good to see that old Bears jumper back from the 80s and early 90s.

Since returning to the public eye earlier this year, James Packer has been a lot more hands on with the club. It looks like he pushed this one through personally also giving the brand exposure for their Sydney property opening late this year.

Yeah, I figured that’s why they were sponsoring Souths in the first place in addition to Storm.

Dogs are close to announcing a major sponsor and should have it done before Thursday’s game. No mention of the sponsor in the article.

A interesting line in Kent's article

The NRL recently lost Holden as a major sponsor when General Motors closed its operation in Australia and, in a disturbing sign of corporate cannibalism, are now trying to woo the Brisbane Broncos’ major KIA to flip its sponsorship to head office.

Or, seeing as he isn't the majority shareholder anymore, others may have overruled the earlier decision.

Given it came from Kent, I'd take it with a grain of salt.

Even so, Brisbane won't have any trouble finding a new sponsor if Kia jump to the top.

No reason Kia couldn't sponsor both. If Brydens Lawyers can put their name to an NRL team, State of Origin and various other smaller sponsorships I'm sure Kia can do it, too. An opportunity for a brand outside the existing family of NRL-level sponsors to have their name attached to State of Origin doesn't come along very often.

Would be a bad PR exercise to be attached to NRL and a club IMO, particularly one like Brisbane who many think already get favours from HQ

You’re a week late. There’s also a sponsorship deal with Grill’d (upper back) yet to be officially announced. All of Storm’s uniform sponsorship positions have been filled.

Wouldn't be the first. When Toyota was an official NRL partner, they sponsored the Broncos, Cowboys and Sharks at the time.

Kia, with their arrangements with the Broncos & Bulldogs wouldn't be much different, and not sure they'd cop that much flak if it came off, especially as the Broncos signed Kia well before the NRL

Don’t see how that would be Kia’s problem. With a major car brand going away, right now is the perfect time for Kia to stake their claim and increase their profile. Attaching their name to one of Australian sport’s biggest properties would do just that. I can’t see there being much of a negative from their point of view.

Grill'd do great burgers. They should offer a discount to Storm members, make my annual spend cheaper

A four year deal.

Time permitting I usually park in the city and go to Grill'd before games so this is the kind of sponsorship I can get behind.

Good to see Grill'd stepping up it's support of NRL. The Sharks have had Grill'd provide post game meals for players the last couple of seasons.
