Wigan, Hull, Warrington, they may be all close. Look at Championship clubs, how many pay their way from attendances.
This isn't unique to RL, it's the same in any professional sport.
How many football clubs operate at a profit? Or RU clubs? Or cricket counties?
In every sport a very few have a genuine operating profit, all the others rely on top up funding from central sources, wealthy owners, or both.
