The AFL is secure because of its popularity. The NRL have made their game a TV game and are still suffering the consequences. The AFL would never have been worried about the NRL, who wouldn't know national expansion if it took a dump on their head, especially until the storm.ParraEelsNRL wrote:With their $100 million TV rights deal that dwafted anything your code had, with teams wanting in from all over Australasia, you really are a dumb p r i c k![]()

Crowds and members have all been a part of marngrook culture, partly so strong because the scope of a television camera can, to the lesser enthusiasts and passionate supporters alike, make the sport look like a pack of sea gulls fighting over the last chip at times. I'm sorry but I'll take mick malthouses words and the undeniable stats indicating a mass amount of 'non event/shallacking' matches over your words on this one any day Xman. Just dont tell your shrink ok?![]()
The only article citing this years figures showed the AFL won by 10mil =D>

The nRL has plenty of wast of space clubs lol. Canberra, Cronulla, Melbourne, Penrith etc. Just a few of the 15 nRL clubs annually making losses largely because of their sub 15k crowds week in week out. If the nRL ever decides to expand, then there's some new expenditure for the league. With a lot of the nRL's new money going towards the new CBA and its clubs, expansion will likely be culled because it's not sustainable. TV money can only get you so far, multiple revenue streams like the AFL has is what you need to be a successful organisation.Raiderdave wrote:Xman wrote:The AFL is secure because of its popularity. .ParraEelsNRL wrote:With their $100 million TV rights deal that dwafted anything your code had, with teams wanting in from all over Australasia, you really are a dumb p r i c k![]()

RL has no such issues
no waste of space clubs ..... a massive increase in revenue , but this new mountain of money will be balanced with controls on expenditure.
what a rosy couple of decades the great game of RL can look forward to

lets look at our waste of space clubs according to spewie
Canberra ..... 3.4 Million dollar profit last year & one of the most stable clubs in the land financially, finalsists every 2nd year since 1998
Cronulla ...... debt free & tipped to have a genuine tilt at a premiership in 2013
Melbourne .... 2012 premiers , & the most consistent team on field in any code since 2006 , continually posting profits since 2009
Penrith ..... finished 1 point off the minor premiership as recently as 2010
& now lets have a look at the VFL's
Midgets ..........

the NRL will be spending a smaller % of its revenue on player wages then we did in the old TV deal ... despite increasing the salary cap
there is so much more dough in RL's coffers ... its near embarrasing
watch us spend it wisely
meanwhile the VFL continues to decline
good days
good days

The Raiders won't post a profit lol. They never do, no clubs except Brisbane do. Port didn't finish bottom 4 last year so don't expect them to do so this year, twat.Raiderdave wrote:Xman wrote:More to look forward to then raider fans!

The only thing arse Raiders fans have to look forward to is getting the best seats in the stadium because it's empty all the time
Those business interests do not give a shit about the Raiders football ops, do they? They have other business expenditure to take care of, so the Raiders team doesn't really see much of that money, do they?Raiderdave wrote:Stewie wrote:The Raiders won't post a profit lol.

the Raiders will post a profit .... always do when all their business interests are included
along with about 12 other NRL clubs who will be in the black in 2013 , hell it might be all 16 with all this extra dosh they'll be given & only a tiny increase in expenditure...
Poort Powerfailure are a joke on the field .... & most certainly are off it
bottom 4 for sure .... possibly even .. the spoon for this embarrasment of a football club
& that means another near 7 million loss will be announced at the end of this year
&
the VFL & SANFL .... will give serious consideration to winding them up
