Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

[taste2taste]

These things often aren’t good for a sport but it could potentially be a huge injection of cash for union.

How could it be a huge cash injection for the sport?

The players will be very wealthy but how can the sport benefit?

I don’t think there is much to be worried about just yet, right now this thing still doesn’t really exist and at least the article I read seemed to imply the players have signed on in principle but that’s different to actually signing and jumping ship.

If this does get off the ground I do think it’s more of a threat to the NRL than some are suggesting. This isn’t the super league, as we saw with LIV golf they’re willing to splash around a f**kton of money even when there is no chance of making any of it back and they’re willing to stick to it.

In terms of the impact of union it’s kinda hard to say. These things often aren’t good for a sport but it could potentially be a huge injection of cash for union.

Time will tell how it all plays out. Right now it’s a nothing burger with the potential to really shake up union and league worldwide.

If they take over the sport any profits will go to them

This is a million times worse than super league

This is an attempted hostile takeover. These aren’t passive owners

If the irb are smart they will go back to them and agree on the champions league proposal

Nip it in the bud before it ruins their sport
