Expat Chat Episode 161 - Will the R360 Rugby Players Receive Tax Free Incomes

Welcome to the one hundred sixty first episode of the #ExpatChat podcast. We explore the latest tax, investment, and financial issues affecting #AustralianExpats. In this episode, Atlas Wealth Group Managing Directors Brett Evans and James Ridley break down the tax implications and financial considerations for Australian rugby players joining the new R360 tournament. Brett and James dive into the buzz around R360 and clarify the common misconception that player salaries will be “tax-free.” They explain why Australian tax residency rules make this more complicated than it seems—especially for professional athletes on short-term contracts. The discussion covers how section 23AG exemptions might apply and what players would realistically need to do to qualify. The episode also explores Saudi funding behind the league, the involvement of high-profile players, and commercial opportunities around both R360 and the P&G NRL team. Brett and James stress the importance of independent tax advice before signing overseas contracts, given the risks of remaining an Australian tax resident or losing NRL eligibility. They conclude with practical guidance for athletes, expats, and advisors navigating cross-border tax rules, while also sharing a preview of the final episodes of the year. Packed with myth-busting insights and timely advice, this episode equips Australian expats and athletes with a clear understanding of the real tax implications of international sporting deals and the considerations to make before moving abroad.
