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.

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?

Existing...NRL through open the books apparently and have 150m cash available right now..

Broadcasters came to the party and threw in 49m in future payments..

The issue diedpretty is talking about is what happens at the other end of this...ATM the agreement is all Cubs receive the same amount in grants from the National body regardless ...The suggestion is for a different funding model whereby Clubs receive differing amounts..As an example the Broncos would receive less being a 1 town team and all the advantages that come with that than say Manly who would get more...this is what the richer Clubs arced up about..

we might be one of the clubs that needs a bailout

Manly Warriors and Gold Coast are the one's most at risk given their current funding models...

Wests Tigers are toward the higher end of current Clubs..

Hopefully they don't. Hopefully someone else will see the value and take over.

Where'd that info come from Geo?

Hasn’t gone down too well with Souths in particular. Apparently nobody helped them when they got kicked out, so not overly willing to assist anyone else now.

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


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!

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.

Mate ..... you’re just dreaming.
 
So a thought here... without AFL, A-League and the NRL being shown, is Kayo and Foxtel going to refund customers since they are not going to be paying the codes for a product that is not being broadcast, or will they try to tell customers that everyone really signed on to watch 30 for 30's and darts?

Except the fans from the whole league marched to get them back in when the NRL was not legally obliged to return them...

My understanding it’s the normal payment from the media rights.

There will be no shortage of corporations to take the NRL over ....the major US streaming services Amazon Prime is one they already have some NFL and there are others ...Fox needs it as Foxtel is done with out it .
Whether the NRL survive or they go bankrupt there will be interested parties.. streaming services need huge amounts of content and hungry audiences demanding it .
I think it is time that handouts were stopped to clubs , if there has to be clubs cut so be it and that includes our club if there going to be forever and a day struggling financially and just making up the numbers .

Yeah, it's always been in Souths nature to be tone deaf. Our old mate-come-Souffs-turncoat Alien used to spout on LU via his sockpuppet that only the Bulldogs cared about Souths coming back because they bought them a bell for the 2014 grand final.

Kayo is pay by the month so you can cancel at any time.

Yes, true I hadn't thought of that, Foxtel is contract based though for certain contracts.
 
I can speculate and have opinions on what the game will be like after this devastating setback we all have to endure,however,I really don't want to say much in this regard because none of us will truly know how anyone will be after the virus and what financial destruction our great country will endure..
I prefer to want people to survive first and foremost,get through this with loved ones in tact and be able to look to the future with more confidence.I love rugby league and the mighty WTs just like anyone else,but lets see how we come out of this devastation so we can all work together to get us back to as near normal as possible with minimum damage although I think the damage caused by Coronavirus will be exasperating..lets hope we can get the game back on stage with as little damage as possible...then lets see what repairs need to be made...

No, it was an alternate view to a situation you ( and anyone else for that matter) have any control over.

Whats the point of only speculating worse case scenarios? Can we also speculate that there is a parra less world where the comp is stronger?

FYI, joking about parra, dont want any team to fold.
