Apparently confirmed that the rebel rugby comp is starting next year.

Allegedly 10 NRL players have signed, three confirmed names are Ryan Papenhuyzen, Zac Lomax and Jye Gray.

Nelson Asofa-Solomona also likely, and chat of Payne Haas getting an offer of over 2 million... in US dollars...
 
V’landys has said there will be “consequences” for any player seeking to break a contract.

Off contract players will be free to sign with R360.
 
Lomax is the only one trying to get out of a contract. Others are off contract end of 2026.

Melbourne are likely encouraging Nelson to talk with them.
 
I've heard RTS and Will Kennedy being mentioned as guys that could go to this competition.

Wouldn't be surprised if PVL to puts the red pen on players in the middle of a contract that leave the NRL for R360.
 
I know nothing of R360.

How many teams are there going to be?

Given it's a Rugby comp, surely the vast majority of players will come from Rugby already with some players leaving league to join the R360.

But how many players are we talking leaving league? 10. 20?

League will survive.

If R360 does take off and becomes an ongoing league, and can sustain the contracts being offered now to attract players, it may have a lasting affect on RL. But isn't it already the case players could leave RL and play Rugby in Japan or somewhere for more lucrative money than in League and they still choose to stay?
 
Yeah they said SBW would never be welcomed back but they rolled out the red carpet for him as if he was the messiah returning
Different organisations though. Different people have different ideas. PVL might ban them, a new CEO in 5 years time might have other ideas.
 
Like some others I have no idea what R360 is about but my understanding it is basically Union with a few changes in rules.
Leads me to think that most will likely be Union players but some League who you would assume are players who have achieved most of what they want and are on the back side of career, obviously with a few exceptions, chasing $$$.
Don’t know why any League player would change codes to chase big bucks when the new clubs Perth and PNG are likely to be offering regular first graders big contract $’s and established Clubs paying to retain players.
It DONT MAKE SENSE
 
Feels like another World Series Cricket or Allen Stanford type creation that will flounder after a while but hopefully give the hierarchy in rugby league a kick up the arse to improve the game.
