We just have to weight up what is in the best interest of the code long term. A bit less money coming in the players getting a little bit less money but the crowds potentially growing. Previous generations of players played for not much money. They can say they were proper custodians of the game. This generation of player makes a lot of money and don’t give a shit about the game.

Eels have taken a hit to include free kids memberships. But they want to get the most out of their great new opportunity. Dolphins must be taking a hit in how they've priced their Suncorp memberships unless they got a much better deal than Broncos.
Sometimes businesses will have loss leaders in one area in order to build customer base or benefit in other areas. More committed fans = more merch sales for example. Full stadiums make corporate box sales easier. Sponsors want to jump on board clubs with big fanbases.
There's many positives to building a bigger active fanbase. With 75% of NRL clubs now playing out of decent stadiums we need to see more initiatives to utilise their facilities to grow the game.

Sounds like fake news being spread by Roosters or Roosters stooges in the government.

Ultimately, the NRL is the loser having only one tenant at Allianz.

Maybe NRL could help Souths move with a promise of more use of accor for other things? Mind you I doubt the NSW govt is keen to do NRL any favours after the very public slagging off Vlandys just gave them. I would imagine theres a 'big f**k you' when ever NRL comes up in parliament house discussions at the moment!

Its a great stadium and improvement for Sydney. Cant believe people are still moaning about it being built lol. Now NRL and its clubs need to find a way to maximise the gift they've been given.

It's a shame the powers that be won't let Souths play there.

Great gift.
