So a walkover team get's to pay for the away game and also loses his own arena income? TV and merc are not touched?
But we were talking only about the case where you play an away game and don't field the team.
If the team does a walkover twice in a weak, so in their home and away game, they get to refund people twice, yes.
For the sake of the example, let's say each arena in the league nets 300k.
WO team plays saturday an away game, doesn't field at least 3 players, pays 300k to home team.
Then the same team plays tuesday, doesn't field at least 3 players, gets 300k from attendance and then refunds people by same amount.
Result of two walkovers in a week: -300k. I guess nobody would do any intentional walkovers anymore.
