What will the new competition look like

[jadtiger]

the new comp or nrl etc need to be careful they dont do too much damage in sydney re teams. Still know lots of north sydney bears supporters that gave up on league and went to afl when they went.
Maybe they can convince saints to move to woolongong permantently and play 1 or two a year at kogarah.
We have already merged so i dont think it is right we put our hands up again, they wont want to lose the emblem so i think we survive as we represent inner west and also campbletown etc.
Also hoping wests ashfield and Harry T can work out something to assist us along with Brydens.
Dogs have a huge leagues club but represent a small area if we have long shuydowns they might struggle
Roosters well no juniors or crowds if they didnt have Politis they would be stuffed and gone for sure.
Souths a bit like roosters but have a following and russel crowe so may be ok
Penrith huge leagues club they must be bleeding money if it is a long hiatus
Parramatta in the same boat leagues club but no huge backers i think they may struggle.
Potential merge parra and penrith to Parramatta panthers
Kick out the warriors
Manly look in trouble with the Penn family i mean at some point they will likely sell
interesting times ahead although deep down i think now afl and nrl has shut game when needed the government will kick in sone cash, closing the games makes a shutdown seem real now.
If we had Keating and his love of antique clocks or Bob Carr and his love of the arts we as a game might struggle.
Also we need to work out how we can get some of the government stadium grant for ANZ redistributed to assist the nrl when we are back and running it can help prop up the comp

Penn would have sold out ages ago if he could have found a buyer.Manly will be very hard pressed to get a buyer now even at rock bottom prices,if i was a manly supporter i would be very concerned about their future.Quite possibly the first club to go

When the sharks go under, scum dog will lose interest pretty quickly.

The Sharks apparently secured a $40m injection last year. Was that partly money to pay the squad?

It will be a Super league type scenario and what that will mean is who ever buys the game will add clubs that they want and startup clubs in an area they like .
You see in 6 months time most of the Sydney clubs will be bankrupt and unlike the super league war no one will have an option! There will be no competition this year ... the Olympics are gone for gods sake ! Rugby league is now a Tv sport that corporations will own what the game was will no longer exsist!

At least we've got the 2005 GF on DVD 😅

Well that's bleak.

On the flip side, comp could start up in 5 months with a shortened 2020 tournament. Each team plays 2 games a week over 5 rounds, finals to follow. Season 2021 starts are normal but the game now has a new fan base and existing fans have a deeper appreciation of the game now they know life without it. Memberships skyrocket, attendances are through the roof and its the start of a golden era for rugba leeg.

Also, parra fold.

I don't know how things look in terms of comp structure and makeup, but the NRL need to revise their finances, and I think they're doing that. To be blunt, it would seem the top end of administration including that of each club, and the players are simply being paid too much in proportion to what the NRL is earning. We're not the USA, we need an overhaul in that area.

The players through the players association linked there wages to the Tv rights deal hence the major increases in the salaries .... as from today no Tv rights which in turn = NO more money as this is linked . Greed has caught up !

One thing for sure, we will be playing for the Glen 20 Cup

I see this as being the case. It isn't like the NRL kicking south's out. There will no marches. A new comp will invite applicants and the strongest be will be in.

 

[Tiges19]

An amateur comp where players have to be residents of the teams area could bring back the big crowds like in the 60's

Rothfield the turd arguing that Cronulla must remain. Self interest when he should be spreading calm and optimism. What a dick

One cannot expect intelligence from a house brick!

Lol gold.

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

It doesn't matter what it looks like if TODDY is still involved they'll stuff it up

 

[JD Tiger]

Yeah Todd had a chance to do something great in coming up with a way to keep the game going. I'm sure things were looked at, and maybe nothing was possible, but he (maybe) had a chance to redeem himself and he did not take it.

He's toast.

Clubs are already threatening legal action against NRL. Apparently the handout that the NRL will give all clubs through the suspension wont be equal. The clubs in financial trouble are going to get more than the clubs that have been financially managed well. Hasn't gone down too well at some clubs. So much for no club will be bailed out.

As much as I love the game, the NRL should get no bail out from the government. There will be people struggling to make ends meet for a long time after this is over, and if a sport gets the dole before people just trying to survive then the government(s) have no idea.

 

[twentyforty]

I don’t really know what the NRL , the game of RL, should look like in the future. However, I do know that this catastrophic event will eventually give us a once in a lifetime opportunity to rebuild with the benefit of having learned from past mistakes. It’s a lot harder to run a chook raffle these days but I suspect more people will get good at it.

That was only 1 possible scenario..At this stage every Club is receiving 1.2m each per month for 3 months..

Is that through existing funds available through the NRL, or in anticipation of a bailout?
