#4, I am confused, how are our TAX DOLLARS being used here?

JTK, maybe you need to learn how the tax system works

Wow, we are set for next years premiership and beyond.

The Canberra times article today suggested he was unlikely to become a Brumby but I guess Foxsports is more up-to-date. I know which source I want to believe. That bloke is a beast.

I see. So the Chic Henry method of accounting is in use here too.

It’s a different pool of money. Player payments come directly from TV rights revenue.

A reference to the approx. $700K the ACT Government handed the Brumbies recently (which is to be used for community rugby programs by the way, not to pay Brumbies players).

If they can’t afford their community programmes, how can they afford ‘the No.1 rated player in the world’?

Does this mean Actew will be having to stump up more sweetener money a la ‘Gits’?
