    Sorry, I cant agree with you. The management team are paid the big bucks to find solutions and drive success. AFL was in the doldrums not so long ago and now it is the poster boy for Sports Management 301 at Universities and compared favourably to NFL management and Olympic management. Our...

    that is unless they had not bailed out Mr Cox, since, according to Nick Taylor, "Confidential documents obtained by The Sunday Times show the Australian Rugby Union — now RA — agreed to pay former Rebels owner, New Zealand businessman Andrew Cox, $300,000 and then-director Peter Sidwell...

    Oh yeah, I took out the ARDC grant - which is revenue, but is only allowed for specific spending. Not trying to argue with you, just gobsmacked at the payment to Pulver and wonder what the incentive parameters were

    Well he offered his resignation last year if they could find a replacement , so I hardly think he was being involuntarily terminated. And if he was, half a mill for one month left on contract? Please.
