Fears Cronulla Sharks could lose 20 per cent of budgeted revenue due to unfair draw Todd Carney in action for the Cronulla Sharks. CRONULLA emerged as the big losers in yesterday's release of the 2014 NRL draw, with scheduling estimated to cost the struggling club up to $200,000 next season. ASADA's spotlight might be on the Sharks, but the broadcasters' certainly isn't. The Sharks will play more Monday night games, four, than any other club and have effectively been locked out of their preferred Sunday afternoon timeslot. There are fears Cronulla could lose up to 20 per cent of their budgeted revenue, or roughly $200,000. A lack of free-to-air TV exposure will make it even harder for the Sharks to find a major jersey and sleeve sponsor. Sharks coach Shane Flanagan wants to play more Sunday games. The Broncos face no such struggles, kicking off their season with 10 straight Friday night matches on Channel Nine. Cronulla specifically asked for more for Sunday afternoon matches - but were ignored. "Our priority was to play as many Sunday afternoon games as possible," Flanagan said. I don't care when or where we play - neither do the players - but I am more concerned for our fans. We will have to change our strategy now to get the people through the gates. Cronulla's only Sunday afternoon game is against Newcastle in round 18. Ans Sharks types didn't just have a case of Mondayitis, with the Origin period scheduling coming under fire How can Raiders and Eels get byes before Origin games? Parramatta only supplied Jarryd Hayne for one game this year and how many did the Raiders supply? But the biggest joke is the Warriors have two byes pre-Origin and supply no players - this is a ridiculous schedule As was to be expected, some clubs were happy with it, others filthy. "The draw is a spectacular advertisement for our game," said NRL head of football, Todd Greenberg. It will see the most incredible match-ups and fans and members should have genuine excitement going into 2014 Matches this year - to be covered by Fox Sports - will switch from Sunday nights to a traditional 3pm kick-off on Saturdays. Fox Sports chief executive Patrick Delany added: "On normal Saturday we can now be on-air from around midday until 9.30pm. And it will all be quality, premiership rugby league.
