when i look at the crowds and coverage of the super league clubs i wonder how they could possibly have more money to throw at australian-based players than the nrl clubs. i'm not intending to be patronizing here, i'm just wondering where they get their money from.
is there a higher level of privatization in the esl?
are the clubs better at milking the sponsorship dollar?
does their close-proximity to europe automatically drive-up sponsorships and corporate revenue?
or is it more a case that the esl clubs have more efficient budget strategies, where they spend most of their funding on player payments, unlike the nrl clubs who, at the most, spend about 40%?
apologies if this question has been asked before...
