Beauty. Lindommer's offering to turn on free piss.He'll probably end up bankrupt if the present Board still has their private box.

^^^^ and I did nominate Grumbles for Food Quality Control
.
Even Andrew Forrester may struggle to fund that.
Nominations for replacement Board members are also open.

Because the Waratahs couldn't organise a piss up at a brewery so you'd feel out of place.
You're hired!
If we lose, the event gets scheduled before the post match press conference. Journalists must drink double to attend the press conference.

Agree with you fatprop. We would be losing a good forwards coach for sure, but we're talking about the position of head coach.
My biggest concern isn't if he'll go or not but when he goes. If it's drags on for too long and then he does leave it gives less time to get a replacement in. Those at the top of the list might take other positions in the mean time and we might be left with candidates whose main selling point is they are still available.
Also any new coach needs to be in the hot seat soon before the squad fills up for next season. Allowing a new guy even 4-5 spots in the squad to fill can make a huge difference, especially if one of those spots in the marquee player.

Were they also involved in helping a province reportedly skirt the salary cap by paying a player's contract to his club in the guise of "ground hire" fees and, subsequently, passing on the payment to the player?
I would be interested in a back office role. One things for sure, there's no way I would pay a five figure sum to a runner up in a TV singing contest to perform for a couple of minutes in front of a disinterested crowd who probably had no idea who he was anyway.
Are there that many spots left? At the rate it's going, 2013 could be another less than stellar year if a new coach has to come in and both coach and players familiarise themselves to each other.

Let Brock's words be our rallying call:
And when you're through the other side we're like crowbars through the Opera House window. We get in, loot the joint and get out.

Righto, so it's business as usual then?

I don't think we need to start that early, say 1030 for an 11oclock start, lunch at 1?

Like just isn't enough. If you put all this on reality TV it'd end up on the cutting floor as "too ludicrous even for this genre".
There are really two "its". The train wreck that is the Waratah/Force coaching negotiations and Grumbles horrible gossip/innuendo. Will the Rugby God do two things at once if two people ask?

that seems a little uncivilized, how about 12:30. I suggest a table at Lucios.

an arguably more apt and lesser known one, that took me years to understand:
" you can't live on credit. You've got to reel back the security blanket and piss the bad ball off to the shit house".
I took this to mean that to play successful rugby you have to do the hard yards first......apt in the context.

In conjunction with #1 Tah who will do the DJ stuff, can I volunteer to organise the 1/2 time entertainment, any brass bands and the G&GR choir for any anthems/songs.
Won't be too hard as the Army band lives just over the road from SFS, and there aren't many anthems needed.
1/2 time entertainment will always be a bunch of 8-12 year olds going hell for leather in a couple of 1/2 field games. Compulsary for at least one of those teams to be from outside Sydney Metro. Kids also get to meet the Tahs and visit the rooms after the game.
Historical Note: The origins of the Military Tattoo used to be the drummers marching around town to round up the soldiers from the various establishments that they may have been visiting and remind them to get back to barracks before curfew.
Modern Adaptation: Perhaps we should block off Moore Park Road and have the Army Band march up and down Moore Park Road 15 minutes before kick off to get the punters out of the pubs, and lead them Pied Piper like into the Stadium. "The Tahs Tattoo".

Brilliant.
I've got the OK from Lucios and for a paltry $5,000, Darren Percival is going to sing to us while we eat lunch.
