- 2 Tiers
- 10 teams in the elite comp
- 10 in the 'first division'
- 2 up 2 down relegation system each year
- First division managed and promoted by the ARL/NSWRL. Separate TV deal
- NRL focusses on the elite comp. TV deal renegotiated and each club is given a $7m cap from the money saved by having less teams in the elite comp and a better TV deal
- $7m allows the elite squad of 25 to be paid twice as much
- 4 new teams in the first division from Perth, 2nd Brisbane, Central Coast and NZ teams
- Challenge Cup is created to ensure that all teams potentially play against each other once a year
Thanks
Cheers,
