Finances of Sydney rugby clubs

I thought this made for an interesting comparison of the contrasting financial strength of clubs at opposite ends of Sydney's first grade competition...

Sydney University Football Club Foundation

Union's back to amateur - No financial support (Parramatta Two Blues)

Any WA club could only dream of receiving the $80000 PA Paramatta, and presumably all the other Sydney clubs, will receive from the ARU.

No WA club has even one part time paid administrator, and glorified chook raffles are still pretty much the order of the day.

Get on with it, you Eastern State whingers, we're the ones who should be complaining.
