Fear Anon,

I guess you miss the point as state bodies are struggling more so and their own Auditors have said they are struggling to survive as a stand alone entity. The calandar year reports indicate NSW had a small profit but as all te ports are to be finalized at June 40 it is hard to wait 13 months to see how it turns out.

The discounted the ARP fees and even then clubs are bot paying the previous money since going to payg.

Thr biggest revenue getter for BNSW was Horizen Sports which last year gave 5 million dollars to the group. Also 760k from theit venues which will be struggling this year to give anything and as Horizen was put into admin and that means this year revenue will be down 5 million from that and realistically potentially down close to 7 million. So if they lose 7 or even 6 million from 11.7 million revenue sometjing has to give. 3 million of their revenue which goes to wages and entitlements without their car benefits and I believe includes the executi e wages off 881k and there isn't a lot of staff getting that money 4 maybe 5. They will be lucky if things continue as is for much longer that they will struggle to pay their wages this year. The important thing is clubs survive as they don't need the state body to survive as clubs can do thrritt own draws and organize reps as they do mostly now anyway.

If you are OK with the sport being in such a financially perilous state and no light on how to increase revenue as you can expect higher fees to come in.

There were many great players in that one game and that was most likely the main drawcard I think.

I actually believe half wouldn't know he was playing that game, me being one of them
