BH Where to start, I accept what you meant to say, but feel you in some ways are looking to excuse the actions and management of our governing bodies while lessening the management of other governing bodies. The two examples I choose where NSW Football and Valentine Park, and NSWRU Concord, I...

OK yep the Tahs are being gifted Moore Park, and WH will be allowed to use Concord. We could add the Force in Perth also gifted a training facility. Proves and shows beyond doubt the skill, professionalism, astute management of the ARU & NSWRU. I was wrong I now see the errors, of my...

Yes if they get council permission and I mentioned it when I started talking about Concord. The key point I was trying to make and maybe I have not expressed myself well or used a poor example in NSW Football. Is the other codes have developed facilities and often by their state bodies and or...

Only half right the land they got they developed and latter sold to developers to complete the purchase of the current site. So yes they got the land for free, which they developed and sold at Parklea. But yes they did get a lot of land at the time in the middle of nowhere. The rest they...

Yeah ok guys it was all impossible we could never have taken a long term lease and then presented plans to council. Sorta when the NSW Football purchased the current parcel of land that was a farm at the time. They reasoned we can ask to build a motel and accommodation facilities.

Two separate issues. Concord could have been developed along the lines that the NSW Football did. It should be a rugby centre of excellence. The next thing is could it have been used for the Tahs, we can debate that point and each side is valid. However my main point is, why could the...

BH Sigh Two things Concord the NSWRU if they approached the council with the view of a long term lease, conditional upon the NSWRU undertaking measurable improvements to the ground. I am sure would have been granted. The corrupt CEO, cast your memory back some of those old soccer...

Red Your example is beyond simple. Take Ballymore, why not sell it as the NSW Football body sold theirs that was ageing to a developer and build something be it out in the boon docks. The QLDRU has an asset that as I understand it cost them money to maintain. Why not sell it, go out to...

BH Just a little more, not a lot as its over using one example. But because of your post I re watched their youtube, and remember this is an organisation with less revenue than the NSWRU [But does not have a Super Rugby team on their books or anything like ARU revenue] . That aside I looked at the...

ARrrr mate, the chicken farmer way way way way back in the 50 or 60 gave them a small farm at parklea. Over years they developed the Parklea facility and purchased some extra land where their facilities are today. They sold Parklea to a developer and many cried foul, but they promised to...

Red & I Am Force Please don't get me started on the State Unions. If it was possible to stuff things up. The NSW RU, If not for Mac Bank, they would be broke and Concord Oval, please please please please hold on to yourself half. They have wasted [is way to kind a word] millions of dollars...

Nail Head, Bingo, Spot On. Lowy essentially kicked out the vested interested and they are still screaming, he totally changed many of their structures, systems at all levels. New ways to select players for national teams. He was a dictator if ever there was one, he totally smashed the old...

Wam You asked how much did Lowy put in you suggested 30 million. The amount was ZERO in dollars. Lowy guaranteed a loan from the Federal government of 13 million dollars. Lowy said Football cannot survive if it needs my money. What our code [soccer he was talking about] was new systems...

HHHHmmmm EEEErrrrr AAAARrrr OK how to explain . The twist in this post is at the end. When soccer went belly up, they had some things we don't, Their players were spread in reasonable numbers across all states. Soccer had a massive player base. Soccer had SBS talking to the ethnic community...

^^^^^ +99999999999999 to the power of 9999999999999

Thanks

Could not agree more why is everything kinda """ for your eyes""" only. As i just said in my previous post where is the official press release.

So no official release of what happened or been agreed. For the love of the holy mother Mary its !@!@&^%$#$ words fail me. This is fast becoming will the last one out the door turn off the lights. I was actually looking forward to some news good or bad.

^^^^^ Red that may not be far off the truth. A little bird mentioned something to me last week. Twas FFA are moving to a new phase of expansion and they may want to change Gallop for a new person, his contract is up in June 2018. The suggestion if FFA decide on a new CEO, Gallop's recovery...
