and in the dying days in December last year the directors and the ceo canvassed die hard fans for cash injections. disgraceful.

just wondering who is funding this?

lets see it

asic has Deed of Company Arrangement Copy of Deed of Company (5047A) Arrangement () $47 if you want to see it. Guess its up and running

My sources have told me that they did in fact have their houses in their own name and not in a trust at all

They didn’t release their financial reports

That is the question. The Victorian Rugby AGM also occurred recently which uncovered some unexpected developments - could be related - not sure - they didn't produce an audited annual report but we know that Melbourne Rebels owe them over $330,000 - as they are listed as a creditor - not sure...

I don’t want to be a stick in the mud but if he was signed up last December, and told to submit his moving fees , and the directors knew they couldn’t pay up then they were trading while insolvent - I mean they had those notices from the ato in late November and a host of other bills they...

That's exactly right and that's the job of the CEO to generate revenues - if Baden wasn't up to it, then the directors should have replaced him long ago. They fell asleep in their corporate suite and let him run the club into the ground

My understanding is that a condition of having the license is solvency and that is why they had to hand it back. Whether RA would give it back to them is not clear.

Of course, if they slimmed down the 25 off field staff members, assuming a rough $100,000 per position, they could knock $1.5 m off. I mean, not to be too blunt, they have 7 staff in the High Performance department - haven't seen the results though; 7 staff in Consumer and Marketing - 7! the...
