I think they need 400 players to operate a league, on top of big name players like Haas on elite money, and lesser players like Zac Lomax who will be paid more than an NRL salary cap team can match.

Looks like it will be a hybrid of league and union, with megabucks backing by the Saudis.

it is likely to go ahead for at least a season.

The NRL has threatened ten year bans—-but would this stand up in court ?

Not sure they would want any dragons though…

Our dad’s army players like Cooky and Gutho might not get an offer…

Please take the following:
  • Blocka
  • Leilua
  • Sloan
  • Gutho
Holmes to fullback, Buchanan centre. The other 3 are going to play in reserve grade for most or all of the season.

If this thing ever gets off the ground to be profitable, which is doubtful, they won't be able to afford to pay overs to everyone. Salaries are going to have to come back down to earth. Imagine being one of the best Rugby props and getting 1mil a season while Haas is getting 3mil.

They are going to get around the bans by signing up with Japanese or European rugby for a few months and then onto R360, if it ever gets off the ground.
You could be right Morgan. The thing is though the Managers of these players have been told that if they get involved with R360 negotiations, they will cop 10 year bans as well. So the players will need to hire Solicitors or others who can do the negotiations on their behalf.

Managers will cut a deal with rugby in Japan or Europe then they will have to do as you say about hiring someone else to take care of R360. Provided it goes ahead. I have my doubts personally.
