[QUOTE="Amiga500, post: 1165037, member: 56767"] So the WRU financial results are out. Turnover of [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/67352389'][B]£101.3m[/B][/URL] in this year. For contrast, the IRFU turnover last year was [URL='https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/rugby/2022/11/11/irfu-income-up-from-84m-to-116m-but-weve-got-to-live-within-our-means-potts/']€116m[/URL]. That is actually [I]less[/I] than the WRU when you run the exchange rate; and I believe would include a far greater proportion of provincial unit expenses than the Welsh regions as they are more akin to private entities. I know the IRFU operate in a favourable tax regime, but still - doesn't really explain how the Welsh regions are [I]soo[/I] poor. [/QUOTE]
