Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

[Cactus]

Just in case, we need to prepare for the possibility of a new pontificate.

Can anyone help ? Bunnings just wont cut it. We will need a chapel, a shed load of copper for the chimney, and those chemicals that make the smoke either white or black.

Peter V'landys about to 'quit one of biggest jobs in Australian sport'

'PVL' is known as one of the most dynamic and aggressive sports bosses in the country after making big moves like starting the NRL season with a footy festival in Las Vegas.

Surely it is racing he will quit. He seems to like a scrap and he seems to like having a bit of celebrity (maybe that is not the right word). Literally nobody knew him when he was only head of racing because nobody cares about horse racing. He still has a lot of work to do with RL. I’d give him more money and more power.

Racing pays him millions we pay him 150k

With a record tv deal he has done everything he set out to do

As was shown with the Brisbane stadium debacle outside him nobody else has a clue about the big picture things or the ability to get all the stakeholders on board

If he leaves expansion will stop at 20 teams

If he becomes full time there’s not much need for Andrew abdo

He operates as the face of the game already

That's what many of the media pundits are tipping.

there will be plenty to do with getting Perth, but particularly PNG up and running …

Also 20 teams is where expansion will stop anyway whether he is there or not..

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Not sure if expansion stops, a png team means we'll be in Bali next apparently.

 

[Steel Saints]

People are over stating PVL. Sure, he is the chairman, and regularly finds himself in the media spotlight. But there is Abdo, the CEO and the rest of the independent commission.

It does come across that PVL is the only one who is running the game and therefore he has to fix everything. Whether it's expansion, tv rights or stadium upgrades. Abdo and members of the independent commission should all be involved in those issues.

Abdo and PVL have been leaders for the last five years. They do compliment each other. One is quiet, the other not so quiet. But people shouldn't forget the members of independent commission- ARLC.

Chairman- Peter V'Landys
Peter Beattie, Prof. Megan Davies, Wayne Pearce, Dr. Gary Weiss, Tony McGrath, Kate Jones and Alan Sullivan KC.

Woah settle down, you're going to upset the sycophants.

Once Perth bears is established then they have to add Adelaide to tick the box of being a “national comp”

Plus Ipswich are formulating a bid to be the third Brisbane team which given the population boom in sw Brisbane is inevitable

I can see NAS as their marquee signing already. They can build a players compound at Kuta Beach.

All those other board members have been around for years. Everything started getting done when Pete V started, before that nothing was getting done by Beattie, Davies, Pearce, Weiss, Kip. Jones or Sullivan.

Would the NRL be a success in Adelaide plus NRL is more then national with NZ Warrior's and NZ2.

I’m not a huge fan of nrl clubs in afl states but Adelaide would be the last one

They don’t produce juniors and it’s a long slow grind but getting a small nieche of the market is a achieveable

Adelaide rams got decent ish crowds and had good finances even if Adelaide is a huge dump

Their ground is decent too for rectangular sports

cant believe there are PVL fans

sucking him off while he rifles through your wallet

With regards to possible rectangular stadium upgrades for the Brisbane Olympics, PVL may have been asleep at the wheel, or working at his other job- Racing NSW.

However there are two commissioners in Beattie and Jones who are ex Qld politicians. They could've done something.

The real question is did the whole commission sit down 3-4 years ago and lay out a strategy of what they would like to see that would benefit NRL and how they would lobby for it? If not then it is a failure of the commission, led by Vlandys who seems to be the one making most of the games directional decisions.

Those 2 are where the blame sits, they should of been better prepared

Throw in the muppets at the qrl and the ceos of the broncos and dolphins

Can’t blame the afl for grifting when they get better stadiums than ones in league states bc league types don’t care about it

They were never going to have a rectangular field for the Olympics. Get over it. The best you could get was a replica toilet bowl. The fact they made it an oval is more for cricket than the afl.

And suncorp is already/still world class allegedly, according to the premier. So that's that.

Stop crying.
