Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

[Reflector]

Since pvl took over afl has been relegated to second spot

their only ideas now come from copying his

And the nrl 20 team comp willl have a footprint that dwarfs afl

the failure of their last two expansion teams will hold them back for decades

gws is one of the stupidest ideas for a team in the history of Australian sport giveN the demographics of western Sydney

See the half-empty stadium for their elimination final against Brisbane last night?

Wonder how many of the tickets were giveaways?

I know we all have digs at the AFL and the lack of suppport that GWS has in Sydney but wouldn't surprise me if it outdraws the Sharks vs Cows game next weekend or the NRL game only draws low 20k's (caveat, unknown number of freebies across the 2 games).

Even the Cronulla CEO wants to play at Caltex Field, Endeavour (or whatever they call it these days) and get 14k as what's the use of moving to Allianz to get 15k. If that's what he thinks his club can only draw in a semi then why bother expanding Caltex for normal season games, just leave it as is.

Its his son that owns skydance. Vlandys is going for the wrong dude.

Wrong. The son David is putting the deal together through Skydance but its the old man Larry Ellison who will hold a 77.5% controlling interest. PVL is definitely going to the right dude.
Wether or not he even gets the meeting & what becomes of that we will have to wait & see.

yeah theres some nuances there, but David is the CEO, remains to be seen whether Larry will take any direct control - his 77% is held by his family Pinnacle media.. The takeover deal isnt finalised yet, not expected to be until early next year, so nothing likely to happen in the short rerm.

I’m sure pvl doesn’t need to be reading this thread to work out who he should be dealing with

The son may well be the CEO but who is his boss ? Its his old man of course.
"Larry Ellison, the world’s fourth-richest man and co-founder of software firm Oracle, will be the new controlling shareholder of Network Ten after a group led by his son David completes a deal for its parent company, Paramount Global"
PVL trying to meet with Larry is certainly not the wrong dude as you asserted.

well PVL probably doesnt need any commentary on this board or any other board to do anything, Why bother talking about anything to do with him or his decisions.

Deal isnt even finalised wont be until early to mid next year. No one really knows what role Larry will play in a company that David is the founder and CEO of.

This has nothing to do with your assertion that PVL is going to the wrong person

Yes we do. We know he is the controlling shareholder, the boss of David and most definitely the right person for PVL to meet with.
