Todd Greenberg Appointed NRL CEO

[roostersrule2]

It must be get sacked for not doing anything wrong week.

 

[hineyrulz]

Looks like Slothfield and his News bum chums have finally had a win. The rubbish they will be writing will be unbearable.

 

[applesauce]

Yay, back into the laps of NEWS we go.

Looking forward to more years of mediocrity and treading water.

 

[NrlCoach]

Shoulder charge back????

it was Grant the merking who banned it not smith. smith the merkin introduce automatic sin bin for throwing a punch

 

[whall15]

I'm hoping he's quit because he's just screwed Fox over and sees his work as done. Doesn't seem likely though.

 

[kbw]

The only bad thing about this is that a bigger moron with a less understanding of the game in Grant is the interim head

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

I don't mean to freak anyone out, but Andrew Vlad Demitriou shouldn't be ruled out as a replacement.

 

[Johnny88]

The rumour was he was quitting after he did the tv deal which didn't get completed I guess thought stuff it.

 

[cleary89]

Didn't Grant play for australia? Surely he has some understanding of the game...

 

[axl rose]

With the farcical nature of the NRL I can't help but think Greenmyth will get the position *shudders*.

Greenberg will do away with tackles. He has some oztags in supply ready to go.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

The salivation at Surry hills will be sickening.

Cue. Slothfield. Bourbon etc.

He was obviously pushed, probably something like news will not come to the table if d smith is here

Then boom gone.

Arlc just blinked. Prepare to bend over now

 

[Incorrect]

Maybe News Corp have done a deal with the NRL whereby they agree to stump up the money for the TV rights the NRL wanted on the proviso that Smith walks as part of the deal...

 

[Perth Red]

More worrying than smith quitting, you can always find a decent CEO if the pay is enough, is why he's quit so suddenly?

 

[TheRam]

What a useless merkin Smith has really turned out to be.

 

[betcats]

Hahaha so he quits with the rights deal half done? But yeah that 9 deal is a real win for the game! Grant should be next for hiring the shit merkin.

Dave Smith was neutered.

He said f**k it and walked.

The spin out of the press conference at 11am is going to be nauseating.

 

[no name]

Hopefully his replacement stands up to News as much as he did.

 

[NrlCoach]

must be take the trash out day in the Nrl. panthers have, NRL have, Manly hired hoopa...

 

[RL The greatest game]

If you believe the DT (and no one here does) you'd think they lead this for him to be pushed.
That would be just another DT porkie
I thought Smith was doing a good job or sorting out these greedy (mainly but not just Sydney) clubs

So did i

Could we have one, just f**king one, offseason where there isn't a major scandal or issue going on? As a general punter out there, I thought he was doing a good job. This throws a massive spanner in the tv negotiations I take it?

Some people won't realise how good a CEO he was until we have a new one

Yay, back into the laps of NEWS we go.

Looking forward to more years of mediocrity and treading water.

Somethings never change

I don't mean to freak anyone out, but Andrew Vlad Demitriou shouldn't be ruled out as a replacement.

Please no no no.
Heaven forbid we went down the aFL road of 3 srtike rules. Sweeping things under the rug and ripping off taxpayers.
No no no

 

[Cumberland Throw]

Probably hire Patrick Delaney or Kim Williams as ceo
