NRL clubs are littered with debt, poor membership numbers, lack of major sponsors and poor income. One can't even afford a CEO.

Trouble indeed.

NRL clubs are growing ... they are part of the most popular code in the country
about to be rewarded as such in their next TV deal

with small operating losses to be wiped out as of next year
theres no stoping this code ... it will be THE sport of the next 2 decades

the AFL is a dying dinasaur
support crashing everywhere ... clubs bleeding funds like shot pigs
failing expansion
sticka fork in it
its done

Mmm real popular!

less than half the attendance of the AFL. Less than half the members. Less than half the media interest. Soon to be way behind the tv ratings.

All true and have long been behind in the tv ratings. Don't listen to old Roy when it comes to tv ratings Xman.

Oh and again... 14 NRL clubs lose money every year.
