Australian rugby/RA

Apropos our status as a sport in Australia, there was a segment on the news last night about Ipswich High School. They have a development programme for girls who want to make a career in rugby league, maybe 50 participants. The programme appears to have qualified instructors. I hope this is funded by the NRL and not the public purse.

Gives a glimpse of what we are up against.

"We sat down and he said where I’m at in life, I’ve been a part of Australian rugby and the Tahs for eight years, entering the next stage of my life and my career, he just said he doesn’t need me to train or to go in, get the family sorted, take some time out, mentally refresh, so that was really nice of him,” Foketi said."

So McKellar and presumably the Tahs give the employee the opportunity to take leave and get his personal and family life sorted and Foketi / his manager then turn it into a business opportunity.

I hope Foketi gets slapped with paying RAs costs, he and Wells are absolutely taking the piss here.

Yeah the more you look at it make you wonder what he was thinking.
