The Canberra Raiders could land a $1 million financial windfall after making their first NRL grand final in 25 years. It's the first time the Raiders have made the decider since their 1994 premiership and aside from potentially adding to the trophy cabinet it could also add to their coffers. There's $400,000 prize money for the premier, while the runner-up will pocket $200,000. Although there's a lot of costs for the participating clubs around buying tickets for players' families as well as for past players. Raiders commercial manager Jason Mathie said there were also financial bonuses from some sponsors for making the grand final, while merchandise sales went through the roof.
