[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 985427, member: 73592"] There's quite a lot of misconceptions there. They don't have unlimited budgets, in England the rugby league salary cap is about £2.2M, in Australia (the only cohntry it's actually popular), the salary cap is equivalent to £5M. Rugby Union salary cap in England is £7M. League doesn't have legions of fans, Australia and Papua New Guinea are the only countries where it can claim to be remotely as popular as Union. Average attendance non Super League is a bit below that of the Premiership, and isn't then boosted by European cups, or international coverage. Rugby League is a category on the BBC Sport page with the Super League shown on the BBC [/QUOTE]
