Last year the British Rugby League made a loss of nearly £1 MILLION Due to cost due to a Cup final with 10 000 empty seats and The cost of Paying for the World Cup teams e.g. Hotel costs and renting grounds e.t.c.!

Once again, that's Bollox, but go on

Main reason was the increase in the cost of insuring players, rising from £705,644 to £1,430,627

If you read the report, insurance costs rose from £700k to over £1.4 million.

Sorry, didn't see your post before I posted about the rise in insurance costs.

Why do people pay any credence to the OP? He's almost as bad as the RL Fans resident try hard troll

Person who doesn't go to RL matches and never contributes any revenue into the sport announces that the sport is suffering from reduced funds.

Go figure.

No problem. Easily done.

The RFU made a profit of 15 million.

Just shows the gap between the 2 codes

Rugby Union clubs are on the brink of going bankrupt 3 clubs have gone to the wall already the thing that RU has it has a very good international set up and they have their own ground Twickenham which they charge inflated prices .Also they have tv sponsorship surprised they have not made more.

to be fair they have plenty of internationals annually and sell it out, must make them millions as i went this year and it wasnt cheap and the stadium is awesome for generating money before and after a game
