[QUOTE="Peat, post: 818318, member: 42330"] Its working for them so far. p.s. On the difference between us touring them and them touring us, we pretty much never play out of window when down there. I'm pretty sure its customary for the touring team to get a cut of the profits on an out of window game - I mean, think about it. No one's going to turn up to an out of window game out of the goodness of their hearts. Someone correct me if wrong but fairly sure that's how it works. So its not like them asking for money is a shock. Merely the amount. p.p.s. All this talk of our game being more profitable because of all the investment we put in is, uh, generous. They've got 4.4somethingm people. We've got 53m. 1 GBP = 1.79 NZD. Pretty easy to work out which country is going to generate the most money. Not sure where the pride in having greater natural resources is. p.p.p.s. Lions get pretty much dirt from the SH countries and bluntly next time the schedule is up for talks that should change or we walk. We made 4m between 4 nations for what is a substantial dislocation. The Aussies made AUSD35m. The cold logic of the NZRFU does suggest the Lions should either end or get more. I don't really support all this economic warfare balls but I don't think the RFU should hesitate to hold that hostage if needs be. Unfortunately, I'm guessing a lot of blazers get great trips out of it, so no dice there. [/QUOTE]
