I think all the best teams are tough on themselves,and set goals and minimum standards. Blowing up at each other is counter productive. But "getting up" someone can be construed as anything from a quite word about doing better, to "blowing up". Given he is being so precious about everything (a...

Can someone explain is there $1M from someone committed to this, or is it pie in the sky depending on big TV $ and over inflated estimates of gate receipts etc?

Well, it's not the first time for him.Link threw him at the deep end in his debut year with the Tahs. He was just short of winning the comp for them.That's got to be a good indicator?

Interesting bit in the article with Marto about the players giving it to QC (Quade Cooper). I think it's a good sign when the players are demanding certain standards from each other.I reckon it's great that the players thought their performance was below par.That's how teams improve, by setting standards and...

But to whom? I am sure I read he is 40% of the payroll. There is a massive gulf between his and his no 2's remuneration.

Mundine is marginalised? Wonder why? He built a career from antagonising the public, and has been rewarded financially for it.He is happy with his choices, you should be happy for him too. The condescending and mocking missive? That is rubbish. You infer that they are stalled in their...

I agree with all of this except the one shot in the locker bit. Wait a week or so after the ARU sack him, I am confident by then another opportunity will "come from nowhere" This dispute has been staged by Nasser,there is a purpose to it.

My belief is that chair is a much more time consuming role than a NED, and is supported by the fact that Chairs are invariably paid a multiple of what NED's receive. There are other boards that he sits on as well IIRC.

Interesting point, what do you see the difference is?

They would throw their toys out of the cot wouldn't they? That would be my year highlight, as unlikely as it is. I know we have never won there, does anyone know how many times we played there?

It's not a matter of shirking, it's more a matter of not having the time. It's the squeaky wheel that get's oiled, Chair of any public company is labour intensive at any time. This particular company is in some degree of turmoil,where no doubt JON is spending many more hours than he would have...

You are clearly confusing his performances with the Reds with his performance with the Wobs. He is not the guy to build a Test team around.Test matches are about being uncompromising and never giving an inch. There is 14 points(7 points either way) up for grabs every time he touches the ball...

WJ you are still talking about him in the present tense. He is not coming back from this, unless he completely capitulates with humiliating public apologies etc. Anyone think he might? Me either, good luck in your new job Quade.

Anywhere where RD is.

He has agreed to terms somewhere else.This is about the ARU withdrawing their contract, thus invalidating the Reds contract that he has signed. ....... I reckon, I mean I think, I mean I guess.

Unless the support for QC (Quade Cooper) is unanimous they should say nothing.Having half a dozen guys on each side would be a disaster. What he did last night indicates he has no further intentions of playing for the Wobs. He might have couched in terms of if this happens or that happens, but it would have...

Sorry, can't buy that. He didn't tweet it whilst eating some comfort food at home alone. He said it almost a week after he started the controversy on a TV show that he MUST have been prepared for. I cannot accept that he did not rehearse answers to questions he either knew or assumed would be...

Does his form warrant selection ATM? He is not in career best form is he?(For whatever reasons)

Someone told me that a Moore tweet was not supportive of QC (Quade Cooper)'s complaint about facilities, so it's unlikely he will be backing a coup.

That would have made sense, if the issue is with Deans and there are no hidden agenda. Too late now in any event, unless he does a complete 180 he is gooooooone.
