Apart from Leeds/St Helens and possibly a couple of others RL is as bankrupt and dependent as rich owners as it was prior to Super League. If Sky pulled the plug, then the finances of the game would be truly laughable
I would say Leeds are the only club with a completely clear financial status, St Helens break even, but their chairman has not pumped anything like David Hughes has financially to the game, most of their investment came from a Hong Kong businessman on interest loan and may still be being paid back on the books. It is just we have no real assets, that was the big mistake after Fulham, we with the RFL should have bought land.
