Since when is a 200k loss a profit? And don't BS about the raiders business arm either. It's a seperate company. And even with income from them the raiders make a loss, including funding from the ACT government [-X

Of the nRL and the AFL, only one competition has been exposed as lying about attendance figures. And it wasn't the AFL.

But it's okay. The crowds at the Suns and Giants are a lie, both teams will fold within 2 years. No one North of the Murray plays Australian Football - the numbers are all a lie, all AFL memberships are dogs and cats, 95% of crowds at the MCG are children that get in for $5. The People of Perth are just GAGGING for an nRL team, the Storm crowds would rise if only they could play at Etihad, no one attended the Swans' GF parade in Sydney - it was all coincidence that they were wearing red and white and holding Swans banners, the Swans support in Sydney is dwindling - the SCG redevelopment is irrelevant, the Lions will fold in a matter of years - the massive investment in their Springwood pokie palace is irrelevant, AFL TV ratings are a lie - probably just people channel surfing. NRL ratings, when high, are accurate however.

Oh and Drac you forgot to add

Israel Falou left the Giants to play RL for less money and that the AFL's 'experiment' with him failed dismally, apart from all the negative publicity they've received :\:

Back on topic! :D

It didnt fail. It had three purposes and two were achieved. 2 out of three is a pass.

A dismal season on the field for the NRL operation last year was matched by below-par financial performance, slumping to a loss of more than $220,000 on revenues of almost $12 million, including nearly $2 million in cash and in-kind benefits from the ACT government.

True. Remember when one of the AFL's SOO coaches racially vilified an opposition player, causing another player to walk out, and the governing body tried to cover it all up as an injury? Man that was poor form by us, and indicative of an established culture of racism.

Oh wait, that wasn't the AFL, that happened in a niche East Coast league....

Or when an official supporter group of a SOO team racially abused indigenous players from the other team at the ground and on twitter but faced no consequences. Who was that again? Oh yeah, the NRL, and this year too. [-X
