    I don't understand how that is possible. TV deals? Do they own their stadiums? Sponsors? I know there would be more money and fewer costs but surely 160mil is impossible.

    Some of the Top 14 clubs are in towns the size of Bunbury.

    It is like Argentina there, most people play football and the people too tall or large play rugby. There is a clear seperation. We have to contend with Mungo & Aussie Rules filth which is a bit more blurred.

    The money can't be concentrated into good sports.
