Just got back from a few days away, and read this Dc, not sure what it's about. Did he get pushed or what?

Yep I have been looking at options to WOB, was watching news other night on tv1 and changed to streamimg service and the rugby was I found quite jumpy. And looked at how much rugby and different sports I get on Sky and will stick with them at this stage. We get a shit load of NH club rugby, 7s, 6N, cricket from around world, Golf, Darts all major yankee sports etc and soccer etc, though I don't watch them all do browse a hell of a lot of sports in pretty good clarity etc, no freezing as such, so I stuck with bloody Sky!

If Rennie broke the non-compete clause the contract is nul and any payments still required from RA becomes arguable.

If the right deal was put up though, RA could look to cut some of their cost by letting him go. They probably end up paying some of the shortfall between the Fiji and Wallaby contract though. There is that whole coaching another team in your pool aspect though, perhaps even part paying them to do so. Under Clyne I would have seen this as the most likely scenario. Under McLennan not so much, but it could be a big chunk of cash in a bad year for revenue.
If I was RA and Rennie wanted to take a job with Fiji and void the roughly $1m that RA still owes him I'd absolutely jump at the chance.
I couldn't care less about playing them at the RWC. You have to be of the mindset that he doesn't move the needle enough to be concerned about him coaching a rival you're playing.

Sure. and agree with you both. I was however trying to answer this:

Tautology or argument agreement?
I'm not sure what you mean. I was answering in terms of enforcing the non-compete clause internationally. It would mean Rennie has breached his obligations under the contract so they can just stop paying him and he has no comeback against that.
In terms of the non-compete clause I guess theoretically RA could continue to uphold his contract by paying him and attempt to force him not to take a competing role elsewhere until the contract expires. I'm not entirely sure what that would look like.
I would assume that the contract allows Rennie to resign and end the contract with some notice period (like every employment contract) and I would think that would void the contract and allow Rennie to work elsewhere.
Non-compete clauses are notoriously hard to enforce even when the competing relates to poaching clients of your former employer. In this sort of situation I'd say it is impossible to prevent someone whose contract has ended (because they terminated it) from taking a job elsewhere.

Again Australia doing more for Pacific nations rugby than NZRU who made a farce of the entire reason Moana Pasifika were setup by selecting Levi Aumua for the All Blacks XV last year. Before anyone shouts me down yes I know Aumua is a Kiwi with however that completely misses the point of the team.
