I'm just not sure it's going to be a net benefit that they are being paid a lot of their salary by someone else.
Especially when R360 runs through TRC.

Which means we will probably have to move TRC to match 6 nations over the medium term, which probably results in less money/interest becuase test rugby in February :(

Maybe March/April would be possible (for both), but even if sticking to February I suspect we'd all get used to it. Super Rugby usually does pretty well in February because it starts a couple of weeks before the NRL (you'd see this in the ratings when rugby was still on Fox). Just avoid playing games in Brisbane until late in the tournament.

I'm certainly not arguing that we shouldn't select these guys. We will probably have to.

It's definitely not.

Beauty of the sabbatical set up is Mum and Dad are the same you are just taking an offer to live with some extended family for a while.

Once the players are owned by someone else the close access is gone and RA are just another suitor competing with the market.

Clinton Schifcofske has cut ties with R360:

Not sure how much this means overall (the players he represents can still talk with R360), but it seems to suggest he's putting a bit more stock in the NRL's threat of a ban. Probably because they (theoretically) have more room to ban or blacklist player agents than they do the players themselves.

I heard their new managers have a dark moustache, glasses and is named Sclinton Chifofske
