    Who knew that Nelson College was such a RL nursery.

    Perkins was in the NZS squad this year.

    Blame it all on Simon Mannering.

    FFS @Chris-B, what's going on? Ta$man is fucking broken. A couple of years back you let Taumoefolau go to Tonga and now every decent young player in the franchise (yeah I said it, you're a franchise) is going to league. Is this what happens when you spend up on out of towners and Cantabs for the benefit of the Crusaders?

    Is there even a league comp in Ta$man?

    Was surprised at the number of Nelson College players who made it, considering their very poor season. Good for him of course, this will be the norm I suspect.

    We tried to keep Harry, but he decided he wanted a bigger yacht than Will Jordan!

    A case of an Inch taking a mile!

    You do know money thing is total bullshit perpetuated by morons, right? 🙂

    Not sure how he's going to get that playing Jersey Flegg. Or does he just think that league is so easy any Ta$man-ian can become Simon Mannering?

    @Nepia

    Simon Mannering smashed the glass for rugby league at Nelson College.

    I think Inch could play 6 or 7 in league.
    Those positions are very well remunerated in the NRL.
    And not just that; if you cut it, you can have a very long career (Reynolds/Foran/DCL)
    By 28 there will be 38 of those positions needing to be filled.

    And if it doesn’t work out, he can switch back to rugby union.

    If you are talking about Ta$man, you are right.

    This is the rank of PU’s by annual revenue for 2024.
    All the numbers should be on the public record; but I haven’t been able to find them all.
    A lot of PUs just highlight whether they are in the black or not.
    But got enough to figure out the basic order.

    dd783fbb-fd90-4dc4-a5d4-b4ddfdee31ae-image.png

    Educated guestimates.
    1 and 2 are over $10 mil.
    3, 4 and 5 are over $5 mil.
    6 to 11; between $4 mil and $5 mil.
    12, 13 and 14; just under $4 mil.

    Tazman seem to get excellent value for their connection to the Crusaders franchise.

    And just for the record, the Heartland PUs.

    e340b218-ee11-4e21-bcad-6af569a8b48d-image.png

    Those above the line, would be over a $1 mil (but less than $2 mil).
    Those below the line; less than $1 mil.

    @mohikamo I know I'm right.

    The data all used to be presented in those State of the Union reports.

    There were just a bunch of sorry-arse idiots on here who decided to troll me after Ta$man won the title in 2019!

    It's why there's still a $ sign in Ta$man when you type it.
