Has the chairman appointed a CEO? A mate of mine who posts on the other site reckon that Bowlous will get it because he's good mates with Issa.

Apparently the intention is to test the incumbents suitability "against the open market. A decision will then be taken by the board as to a best for club direction on filling this position".

Wtf? What does that mean? How do you do that? I will have to ask my HR cousin to explain if this is what they tend to do in the real world. It seems that only at the Eels can we do things a bit differently.

C'mon mate, keep up.

The story is about "The Chairman", a reformed family man who shares his powerful journey with fellow prisoners to give them hope they can change their lives.

There is a particularly memorable scene where "Mad Dog", one of the notorious prisoners tells the Chairman to take his sorry loser arse back to Parramatta and focus more on his lateral movement in defence.

This is about the time where the Chairman turns green Hulk Style, throws a steeden in Mad Dog's face and then runs off into the distance.....hence the term, Rugby League.

Thanks. I've been living overseas in Canada for while. Only been back home for a couple of years so I've been left out of the loop.
