For all of who are knowledgeable about financial affairs , are Rugby/ Super League clubs in the pot for some of the government assistance to businesses that was announced yesterday?

Has AS108 disappeared for a while as they've mutated into Covid19?

If non of a club's players have any signs of the disease, what about playing behind closed doors and televised on sky.
No stewarding or policing costs, sky get to screen games. They could be spread over Thursday, Friday evenings and weekend afternoons, showing all games.

No gate receipts = the end for most clubs.

Franchise RL is the future. Your traditional sides will fold at a steady rate in the coming year.

They already have gate receipts from the 8000 or so season ticket holders.. May as well get some sky money and get the fixtures out of the way

True. However, there are also monies from other match day incomes not coming into the club.

Also, throw in that most clubs will probably have to look to reimburse supporters through a discount for the 2021 season and you can see they are going to have a hole in their already fragile budgets.

I've lost the will to live, and decided to watch the NRL.
It's the only live sport (bar horse racing) to watch. All games are on a certain channel, if you go looking

It's still the same, very attritional, but beggars can't be choosers

Given up, after an hour. It's woeful.

You did well to last that long. It is a sport that lends itself to highlight packages. After rummaging around I have found all my Season Review dvd's. Do you remember them?. Interesting stuff for reminiscing and a smile.

I might watch last years CC final this afternoon .

Sky have already paid for their SuperLeague games up-front via their contract.

The clubs do not receive any further payment if their home game is chosen by Sky as the televised game.
