This morning, RA informed the Consortium’s known representatives of the decision, pointing out that the application lacked adequate financial sustainability. The application placed undue reliance on revenue growth and cost savings estimates that, in RA’s opinion, are too optimistic, casting serious doubt on the prospective licensee’s long-term viability. Furthermore, the parties have not yet reached an agreement on the Consortium’s planned partnership with Western Melbourne Group (WMG) for co-location in Tarneit, which is a key component of the suggested strategy. The Consortium has stated clearly that, in addition to the usual cash that would be made available under a Participation Agreement, it is asking RA for a contribution of several million dollars to offset projected operational losses.

With the proliferation of the Warriors in recent years, rugby league and the NRL’s talent raid on rugby union schools have received a great deal of media attention. The truth is that New Zealand rugby has an abundance of playing skill and a scarcity of funding, despite tales of NRL club scouts attending U15 national rugby competitions in large numbers as part of their recruiting drive. It will benefit both codes if any of those players sign development deals and pursue careers in rugby league. Take into consideration that not a single dollar has been contributed by the union to the professional athlete development of Roosters standout Joseph Manu, who is now on a longer-term road to play for the All Blacks and is presently playing rugby in Japan. Like Sonny Bill Williams, who went to France for his first assignment, rugby in New Zealand may eventually reap benefits from Manu’s move.
