Denial is the enemy of change, you need a cleansing beer of truth before you can truly move on.

Life must be so difficult for you Slim, wishing, hoping and fantasising that one day you will put me in my spot.

RA has backed themselves into such a corner they have simply become a SANZAAR puppet, RA have no other option. Edit: in the mean time WSR is being sponsored by Toyota

careful criticising Clarkie, he is a protected species around here.

Such a minor request by RWA, it should have been easy for RA to allow but it was like pulling teeth. Do you really think RA is supportive and being helpful in providing a future for WA rugby and a Competition that will promote rugby in Aust and Asia, and how so? I wonder what their charter says?

if that is the best they can do (sponsorship wise) with all of RA's contacts and support, it says to me RA must really be on the nose. I would think RA would have been pushing hard to get some help financing the Rebs? Maybe it's more money than it appears?

It was a tongue in cheek reply to Slim's constant sarcastic blaming of clone for everything, as I do and rightfully so imo. When (for explanation) he actually supports the status quo and clone.

OK I will add some context, paraphrasing: Slim said Twiggy could theoretically pay to get it on commercial TV but then only in WA. The constant underestimating of the WA rugby public and Twiggy and the continuing support for RA by some is interesting, especially when the Brums are probably next...

How come your man clone couldn't kibosh that Slim, not only is the comp going forward but it's on FTA and Foxtel, you must be losing faith in your fearless leader.

Intelligence and integrity aren't part of RA's make up, self interest, secrecy and power are the main ingredients. Having someone else dictate or even just oversee their actions doesn't work for them, the Board has to be all powerful. Look big picture not single issues.

I'm sure that is one still outstanding issue. I don't think we should get bogged down in single issues. RA has made it clear from the start by their actions that they want any new competitions not directly under their control to fail. They will raise any single issue and use their influence in...

Yes I agree with you, as I said ages ago, as soon a Twiggy realised they had been unfairly shafted and there was no way out, he changed tack and started playing the long game. As each day/week passes he is chipping away at RA's position of power. I suspect he has powerful rugby people from here...

You are probably right, but short term the board and especially clone are the first hurdle.

I haven't called you names, unless you include last week when I referred to you as Einstein after you were telling me I must be stupid.

yes I agree from a rugby in Aust pov, only problem is it looks as though Robbo may be the next Chairman? thus RA and their affiliates will not benefit in any great way. As I have said many times get rid of clone and the board, they are the true enemy of Aust rugby.

The way I look at it, if some arsehole shafted me, and especially in public. One quarter of, one of my annual income streams, would be a small cost in rectifying the issue. Reputation is worth more than mere dollars and in this case I think it's a relatively modest amount.

sorry I didn't mean to be condescending.

Get off your high horse Wam, get a mirror, have a look at your comments and take responsibility for them. You have the right to fire back but don't pretend to be a victim. I often criticise clone and RA, I understand this will upset the RA defenders and accept they will attack me as they do. All...

No, I don't get my K's, m's and bn's mixed up. It was mentioned a long time ago and I can't locate it? Whether it was factual or not I don't think it matters. When anyone, but Twiggy in this case, is publicly disrespected by a imo a horrible piece of work, then the amount of money required to...

A good read, thanks to Travelling Gerry at TWF https://www.pressreader.com/australia/the-sunday-times/20180429/281659665656131
