I don't believe Andrew Forrest is going to "save" Australian rugby, nor was he ever. ====== Agree He had an agenda with the Force, and fair play to him, but the oft repeated $50 million "offer" was highly conditional, and why would a national body accept those terms. ===== Agree It was a big...

^^^^^^^^^^6 WCR Thanks for your response, I do respect both your knowledge and experience, further understand where you’re coming from. My reading of the Tea Leaf’s and Tarro Cards, is we are past the tipping point where we can control our density. No team, no union has either the capital or...

Pick the best person for the job. An interesting concept and very subjective. How do you decide on who is the best person for the job? Its a dilemma a real conundrum if you have a board all male, all say between 50 & 65, all from business, all successful business people, what chance of a say...

Agree 100% . Interesting also is the general lack of female representation on the various boards. Rugby . no women but have a female CEO AFL - 1 woman in a board of 9 with a male CEO NRL - 1 woman in a board of 9 with a male CEO Soccer - 2 women in a board of 6 with a male CEO

Interesting question so I looked at all the Football boards and most have a very ANGLO feel not only rugby the only exception is soccer which is the smallest and seems the most varied. Rugby Cameron Clyne Chairman Dr Brett Robinson Deputy Chair Raelene Castle CEO Pip Marlow Director Paul McLean...

There are a number of articles now on the change to the running of the A-League. What is a common theme in them all was this is only the start. For me what is most interesting is the financial relationship between the clubs and the governing body. Essentially from what I have read is FFA...

Outside on helmet. Enter into the world we should not talk about. I.e what other codes are doing. Remember I keep mentioning letting a new comp in where the teams control the comp. Guess what soccer just did it and it will grow there game. From the roar...

Dan Not starting to start a fight, but your statement is an example of why we have issues. There is truth to a degree in what you say. But by any dispassionate unbias analysis of what you say and how you framed your reply IMO seems to want justify how ARU / RA over the recent years. You imply...

It’s taken a long time for the penny to drop to the floor. But today even the most loyal hard core rusted on’s understand Super Rugby is dead in the water. What to me has been obvious since 1999, in having a US media company dictate who can play and how to run a competition, hiding away on a...

^^^^ Hoggy, on the issue of looking at the options. I understand some don’t like me doing this, but but but tis important to at least understand what others are doing and this is a small collection. I do understand all these things will fail and we rugby folk can point out the folly of these...

Stew / WCR / Wookie You guys might find this link interesting especially at the end its gives a top 10 of sorts and my guess across two maybe three broadcasters . It seems those that stream don't count viewers they count minutes and I have no idea how to convert minutes to viewers...

Some serious numbers will be crunched over the rugby work cup. We need some big numbers to stay important me thinks. Soccer did themselves no harm last night head to head with the women's WC against cricket world cup Australia V India. 10 2019 FIFA WOMEN’S WORLD CUP: AUS V ITA LIVEÂ SBS...

Adam There was a time when media companies said they would publish against anyone as no one was big enough to effect our position an values. When you posted it might upset sponsors I found that very sad that today more an more corporate needs are more important than people's needs. I also...
