Again its currently at QRL cup level of production going on the Hunters competitiveness.

What that step up to NRL production level is is a very interesting question and one that will be fascinating to watch for both PNG and Perth. Both in terms of what's needed and how long it takes. Generally money solves most problems and they have a shed load of it. Lets hope it gets used well.

The Hunters competitiveness in a reserve grade competition is a different discussion to this one about junior pathways of teenage players in PNG progressing to turn into elite NRL level players ….it seems clear that by the time the current players reach the Hunters level ..it’s too late to progress further to the NRL….

there is a large sum of Aust taxpayer money which I think should be sufficient to improve things… although by 2028 seems way to optimistic ….maybe next week they will prove me wrong and announce programs, Aust coaches and infrastructure improvements … let’s wait and see

Rugby league boss Peter V’landys has flown out of Las Vegas with a bold prediction that broadcast revenues from Papua New Guinea might one day topple the $400m a year the game generates in Australia.
Reflecting on the successes and lessons to be learned from the NRL’s second foray into America, V’landys told The Daily Telegraph the US market was the primary play but only part of a plan to maximise global broadcast rights.
Leading American sports and business figures are confident rugby league will eventually unlock a windfall from US broadcasters because of the speed, athleticism and physicality of the code.

V’landys is buoyed by those forecasts and is already thinking how the product can be tweaked over the remaining three years of the Vegas agreement.
For starters, he will cut the schedule from four games to three next year – “it was too long” – and create an “always on” marketing campaign over the next 12 months.
But V’landys also believes other golden goose markets can be tapped to help drive the dollars capable of turning the NRL juggernaut into a sporting behemoth.
PNG is top of the list, with an expansion team based there to enter the NRL in 2028.
“I think, in the long-term, PNG could be generating more broadcast revenue than Australia,” V’landys said post-Vegas 2.0, where a crowd of 45,209 delivered a 15-year attendance high for a season opener.
NFL star Tyler Manoa blew the Vikings horn before he was removed from Allegiant Stadium
“It’s because we will have such an engaged audience of fans. In Australia, there’s a lot of sports and the public has a lot of choice. In PNG, it is all rugby league.
“As a result, we are going to penetrate that market a lot more than we do in Australia. If you keep it at a low price point, you’re going to have a lot of people.”
The PNG population has not been Census tested for a decade. New figures are expected in the next couple of months with a PNG government official telling this masthead the figure will likely be around 12 million.
“I think the market for broadcasting in PNG has extraordinary potential,” V’landys added. “A lot more than when we first looked at it.”
A light bulb moment for the ARL Commission chairman was seeing the out-of-ground audience number for the PNG match against an Australian Prime Minister’s XIII in Port Moresby last year.

Tyler Manoa, 25 year old who has never played an NFL game is considered a star by whoever wrote that article.

So a country that would not have had an NRL team if it were not for the Australian taxpayer is sometime in the future maybe going to exceed the TV revenue generated in Australia.

If AFL spruiked something like that we would all laugh at them.

Australia GDP: 1.728 trillion $US, GDP per capita $US 64820.

PNG GDP: 32.8 billion $US, GDP per capita $US 2492.


Where is this broadcasting money from PNG coming from?

all these geniuses on a rugby league forum like alwaysloser and perthwrongs thinking they know more than the business people running a billion dollar organisation is hilarious.

it's like they think those businesses dont use analysts and metrics to come to conclusions and estimates/forecasts. im sure their phd degree's in economics, expansionistering, stadium engineering earned from being on internet forums surely has more weight to it than blokes who do it for a living.

guess thats why they spend so much of their time here on forums, to spread their "deep insight knowledge" thats obviously way too good to put into practice in the real world. would be funny to see these cobs laughed out of a building if they actually tried to administer their "thoughts" and perceived "knowledge" around real people who actually know wtf they're talking about lol.

stick to drinking pints cobs.

don't see it either. The PNG population of 11m is less than NSW+QLD so even if the NRL was super popular it would struggle to match the same money

Take away the PVL hyperbolics and maybe what's left is that there is some more opportunity for audience / TV revenue than first estimated for PNG. Not bad.

First goal is to get it to the level of the nz tv deal that would be a huge win

Hard to see one nrl team getting as much as money as 14 nrl sides

Just there people on here that think the nrl and png nrl team can’t monetise the he market because they are all poor apparently because they did a google search
