According to this data we are the 12th richest club in Australia, but i am surprised Port Adelaide is at 9th place and Adelaide is below us.

    ...and the Raiders are the 2nd 'richest' NRL club.

    I wouldn't take much notice of that table.

    That's been done only on revenue and not assets. Some ahead are actually in the red.

    I read in one of the papers this week that Carlton are actually 6 million in debt.

    Pity it is not $26 million.

    The Raiders are an extremely rich club. They own about 6 clubs here in Canberra and various other businesses that are very profitable. Just a pity its a sh*thole and no one wants to play for them!

    What? These figures can't be right. Melbourne with a net profit of over $6,000,000 in 2011. More than any other club mentioned. Haven't we just got out of debt?

    how old is that list? no gws, gcfc on it.

    although it is interesting, bronco's are the only nrl team in the top 17 just ahead of the saints and north. I knew afl was the dominant game, but not by that much

    edit, oh 2010,2011, i should look more carefully.

    amazing that the bombers are 2nd and only have 2/3 the revenue the pies have.

    if there was ever an argument for a football department cap this is it

    Pretty sure that is purly due to the acquisition of the Bentely club or what whatever it is who now own.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
