I cant help think all these things are linked.
But i do not think its is just a money issue, it is a power issue
You have Ross Livermore now having a shot at Searle, the guy has been outspoken against the Independent Commission, and stands to lose his gravy train if it goes ahead.

To me it seems Ross is pissed off, and is having a pathetic attempt at Searle following the Builder drama. FFS are we really talking about 25k? i could pay off that debt today if thats the issue.

Ross Livermore - Managing DirectorKey among our concerns is the ARL has agreed to a code restructure, which gives one vote each to the NSWRL and the QRL, providing them same membership rights as each of the 16 NRL clubs and the eight commissioners.
This decision effectively means that the ARL is prepared to walk away from its 50 percent stake in the game for a share equal to less than 8 percent (the NSWRL and QRL being 2 of 26 members), while handing the NRL clubs more than 60 percent control (16 of 26 members).

It is the only way forward," Searle said. "You only have to look at some of the issues the game has had to deal with in recent weeks to realise how much better things could be handled with one authoritative voice."
Searle will today present his fellow chief executives with a detailed list of the enormous cost reductions of having a singular governing body.
Searle predicts the removal of several boards and the reallocation of funds would see an immediate injection of $10.1m, with the possibility savings could be as high as $12m.
