Let's say you are the HEAD CHEF in a restaurant that has closed it's doors.

Should you get 50% of your wage?

So many people have 'lost' their jobs, and are getting paid NIL/ZERO/NOTHING

so what makes footballers/any sports players, more important?

Many casual workers, an integral part of our workforce,

won't even be able to get c/link payments.

Many are on $300 thou plus a year, and if they haven't saved a $100 thou. or so

for a rainy day, many of whom have been playing for years,

maybe part of their training should be "financial planning"?

Here's a clue for you. The NRL gives $11 to $12 million/ yer to clubs as grants from their TV deal. Clubs operate on budgets ranging from $16 to $25 million at a guess. If they get on the field, like the NRL are desperately trying to do with their "Tangalooma Plan", they hope to fulfil their TV rights obligation. And since each club gets $11 to $12 million grant from tv rights, you can see why the NRL are so desperate to get back on the field. TV REVENUE
