If the Australia government were smart they should do a Vlando on Vlando and be asking for a percentage cut of the gambling money the NRL gets for every bet placed as part of the deal.

Interesting that the government is happy to throw $600mil to essentially support the gambling industry.

Yes , they will be lining up to get a piece of the $600 mil pie.
I wonder how much of that will get to where it's supposed to go.

10 % goes to all the clubs .
Then the other 540 over 10 years . 54 Mil in 10 years time wont be as valuable .

It`s a buffer against Chinese influence .
Chinese are loaning money to small countries to build roads and ports . If / when the little country can`t pay back the loan China reposseses . Google China in Sri Lanka for an example .

Quest Hotel in Woolooware ($20 million).
Beetson Hotel (formerly Gambaro Hotel) in Brisbane ($30 million).

I cannot stand PVL for his negative influence on the actual game, but can't fault this. It's great business.
