Difference with the NRL and RFL is the clubs themselves. Look at manly, Illawara as examples of clubs who were set up and run correctly as businesses with well run money making social clubs. Manly in the 80s were bigger than Man U in UK. So from the outset Aus rugby has had a solid financial base. Uk rugby clubs tried it, aka Warrington at wilderspool it never quite took off the same way. Can't blame the RFL for everything it's got to be the clubs up
The RFL are the puppets, but it's the likes of Leeds, Wigan, Warrington & Saints who are the puppet masters. Go figure.
