Oh you want proof?
Example: Australian resident under the domicile test
Emily leaves Australia to work in Japan as a teacher of English. Emily has a one-year contract after which she plans to tour China and other parts of Asia before returning to Australia to continue work here.
Emily lives with a family in Japan during her time there and rents out her property in Australia. Emily is single. Her parents live interstate and her brother has moved to France. Emily is an Australian resident for tax purposes even though she is residing in Japan because, under the domicile test:
- her domicile is in Australia (as she is a resident who has lived in Australia and will generally retain a domicile here when absent overseas), unless she chooses to permanently migrate to another country)
- her permanent place of abode remains Australia.
Your tax residency | Australian Taxation Office
If you are coming to Australia or going overseas, you may need to work out your residency for tax purposes.www.ato.gov.au
It doesn't matter if you live overseas if your clear intention is to return to Australia.
Oh and this was literally my job. I've spent hundreds of hours researching residency rules and rulings.
Any player who signs a 1 year contract would be deemed an Australian resident. 2 year contract most likely the same. 3 years+ most likely non resident.
Tell that to Super Rugby and AFL, and until they relinquish the funds been spent on them, then we can take that higher road and not do it either, until then PNG is coming.... and possibly WA Bears if Cook had the balls to go through with investing in RL
The first 16 year old under this agreement is heading to the UK for a 5 year stint.
Thats great, good luck to him. Hopefully it helps develop as a player and a person.The first 16 year old under this agreement is heading to the UK for a 5 year stint.
He'll be 21 when his contract ends and hopefully he will have successfully developed into a good player.
Local teenager signs with Hull Kingston Rovers

That sort of post isn’t worth responding. Governments spend all sorts of money on a huge amount of different things that most people wouldn’t even be aware of. This is a tiny drop in the bucket of what our government spends every year.
This is the existential crisis facing PNG.
Yet you responded anyways, by basically saying the government spending is already outrageous, so why not just fund the next three expansion licences in PNG, Perth and South Island NZ, which is probably where we are heading... tourism via govt funds, build it and they will come...well the thread posters here are generally thinking the opposite, why should our aus money go to a privately funded rival code club
I meant the post you were responding to, I was agreeing with you. Personally I’m totally fine with how much we’re taxed though I think large corporations and the big resources companies should actually pay their fair share too.
He'll feel at home locked up in a compoundAs suspected, players like him who are suddenly out of a contract and getting low offers from their current Clubs will probably consider signing up.
