Mark Gasnier is on the verge of returning to the Dragons.
The premiership winner is part of a constitutional revamp on the St George side of the joint-venture which would enable Gasnier to be appointed to a board position unelected.
The St George District Rugby League Football Club has put a special resolution to its members this week which would enable directors to appoint three additional directors to the board.
As it stands, to sit on the St George District Rugby League Football Club board you must be elected to the St George Leagues Club board. The leagues club board then funnels into the district club who then appoint four members onto the St George Illawarra board. The only election is for a spot on the St George Leagues Club board.
The plan is to freshen up the St George District board with a football focus and help grow rugby league in the St George region.
Gasnier is the first person to be put up should the resolution be passed by 75 per cent of members at the club’s AGM later this month.
Since retiring from the Dragons in 2011, Gasnier has had a host of roles working in sport and legal administration, commentator for Fox Sports and as chief strategic officer for Oztag Australia.
Gasnier said he was excited by the potential role.
“With the way sport is heading there is going to be a lot more responsibility and help needed from local and district clubs,” Gasnier said.
“If I’m elected I hopefully can add some value there.”
