RL independence day arrives - NRL Independent Commission announced for November 1

[Raiders_Premiers]

First on the Commission's task list

- Appoint new CEO

nothing is going to change if Gallop is still in power

 

[Parra]

Without a new independent CEO the new board is just a new rubber stamp.

 

[Spanner in the works]

I agree. Needs to be done immediately. I'd like them to release a report with their plan, goals and tasks for the next 5-7 years. This IC needs to be entirely transparent in what they do, what they want and how they want it done.

 

[rabbs]

David Gallop will be the ceo.

 

[BDGS]

Well we know from this that they are good politicians.

Sneaking this news out on the morning after the biggest origin game in years ensures that it wont be scrutinised in the press.

Which is impressive for people who like that sort of stuff.

That's an incredibly negative point of view on the matter.

First on the Commission's task list

- Appoint new CEO

Gallop will answer to the IC, if he doesn't do his job he will be out. But until then the best sports CEO in this country should stay CEO. David Gallop has done a terrific job with his time in charge.

I swear people are idiots, it's just like the PM. Everybody bitched about Howard until he got voted out, then they all bitched about Rudd until he got back stabbed. Now they are all bitching about the she-man emu.

Gallop has done a fine job and anybody who can't see that doesn't have the right to call themselves a Rugby Leavue supporter. There is so much anti-rugby league stuff on here it is pathetic, from people who are suppose to be rugby league supporters.

The first thing they should and will work on is the TV deal and sort out the real issues of expansion, rep schedules and fixed rounds. The IC with Gallop will be the best thing that hasever happened to our game.

 

[Parra]

What flavour is the kool-aid?

 

[taipan]

:roll:What rot.He is the conduit to the board.He administers the day to day running of the game.The structural,political and financial decisions are up to the I.C.
If the board says such and such team is to relocate,Gallop cannot override that decision.He is the face of the game to face the Tv cameras when a vital decison is made.

 

[Billythekid]

Well lets get this sh*t up and running so they can start working on getting us the billion plus we deserve on our tv deal. These SOO ratings are a timely reminder of how valuable the NRL rights are.

 

[Parra]

Apparently the board will handle this and just advise the CEO where to file the paperwork.

It's a new model for corporate governance, apparently.

Or it is rot.

The best sports CEO in this country is by far and away the AFL Chief. Anyone who can scrounge 1.25 billion for that crappy sport must be very, very talented.

Gallop has had a good run and has done a good job through numerous difficult times, but although it may sound cliche it's time for change. We need someone aggressive and proactive to run the league - attributes which Gallop does not possess.

Being a dictator doesn't make you the best CEO in an country.

Although that greek bastard gets too much credit. Its the AFL commission that should be credited with getting that TV deal. Not the figure head.

What absokulte crap.

He's a News Limited lackey appointed to safeguard their interests.
He makes no decisions - and has zero accountability - just mumbling his way from one non-decision to the next.

Politicians like that prick Howard are identical. there is nothing easier than sitting in a well-paid bullshit job where you have no accountability, no risk and nothing more than a big ego.

What you need in business are true business people ho will put it on the line to make the business a success - who are not afraid of tough decisions.

Anyone who honestly thinks Gallop is a good CEO is a moron or another News Limited lackey.

So basically you are indirectly casting aspersions ,as to the independent integrity of the new commissioners.Without a decison made.:crazy:

I was having a laugh at the model you suggested in #2207 above.

maybe the dig was a bit too subtle.

Would an emo-icon have helped?

Disagree with that. The public will oust a leader whose policies and actions they do not support.

The rest I agree with.

Then await your suggested model with interest.But wait.... of course the I.C's all lackeys LOL, will be sitting around on their butts ,awaiting further instructions from News Ltd. And Gallop will be bowing and scraping .

No need, your track record is good enough.

ignore Parra the Union nuffy

absolutely no need for that.

Still very quiet on the IC, only article i have seen was the Australian one with the 8 names. Why are news and fairfax so quiet?

oh boo hoo, he use to work for compaqny X so all his decisions and actions will take that into account.

perhaps we shouldn't take your opinion because you had a paper route when you were younger or worked at a fast food restaurant and the only people who work there are idiots who can't get an order right or throw the paper into the bushes.

its ridiculous.

If you don't like it, there's the door.

Gallop is a great leader. Despite the goggles some are wearing.

I'm with CC_Roosters. What has this man's ancestory got to do with anything?
