Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Even their TV deal sounds great in principle. But that's it. Sounds great. Money hasn't really filtered down. NRL clubs are struggling more than ever. More are being run by the league so the league itself can survive.
Teams are farming out their reserve grades even more and also will be spending a lot less on their U20s. All to save money.
The Titans have somehow been able to offer hayne a large salary. Despite the fact that they are skint and are being run by the league. That's right, the league will have to help pay him.
Clubs have gone cap in hand, asking for advances, sponsors are hard to find, drugs, sex tapes and so on. It is not rosy over here.

Why do people think Marwan Koukash has the money to buy Gold Coast Titans? Oh they've googled his worth and Wikipedia says it's $900m. It isn't.  icon_rolleyes.gif" alt="icon_rolleyes.gif" title="Rolling Eyes" />

What is his worth JGR ?
On a positive note re Jarryd & Gold Coast, they had a reported 25,000+ attendance which GCT claim added $300,000 in gate receipts alone.

| Will probably get a similar number with shirt sales + printing. Same with Pogba at United, many more commercial benefits of paying a lot for a big name than what they produce on the pitch.

Would be good, as they are in disarray and this will hopefully pay off a small chunk of debt, or the NRL will just get it anyway.
Can't believe that after many attempts and a massive growth in the population, it still doesn't seem to work up there. Why??? I don't know. Maybe they love their local QLD Cup more?
