He will survive this.Has to be final nail in the coffin of Greenturd.
I think that V'Landys see's straight through him though?He will survive this.
There's a certain group in society that you can't criticise and Todd belongs to said tribe.
No coincidence he went from running the catering at stadium Australia to Bulldogs CEO, onto NRL CEO in 3 years.
Seems like his role as the talking head of league is being usurped by Vlandys. I think the financial troubles highlighted by the shutdown will be the nails in his coffin. Shit floats though, and he'll move on to another position of influence somewhere. There are always organisations looking for poor financial management and CEO's to do a poor job. I think that the increasing levels of criticism he cops will ensure that he's ousted when it's convenient. It may not be this year with the shutdown, but it will be soon in my opinion.He will survive this.

I can't see why NRL level players need a retirement fund in all honesty. With a minimum wage of $100k for a top 30 member of any squad, they should have enough money to tread water until they move to other employment. I can get behind the idea of looking after guys like Alex McKinnon. But cases like his are thankfully pretty rare. The bulk of players seem to be treated like slabs of meat though. Once their playing days end, all but the highest profile players are cast aside pretty quickly and with little ceremony. I don't know who is actually a beneficiary of this retirement fund.Nrl hasn’t been allocating funds into the retirement fund like they should of been
20mil in account should of been 30mil
Players absolutely furious
No one knows why money hasn’t been allocated
V'landys probably does but V'Landys has been around long enough to know that if he wants his bread buttered in the corporate world with his future endeavours he will be tight lipped on criticising the ones that shall not be named.I think that V'Landys see's straight through him though?
Is there any where that they spell out the purpose of the fund? I can't seem to find anything apart from an open-ended idea that it can be used however they see fit providing everyone agrees on it. What does that mean? Is it for current players, retired players, injured players?I can't see why NRL level players need a retirement fund in all honesty.

From my understanding it was for those injured, not landing on their feet, need help etc later on in life.Is there any where that they spell out the purpose of the fund?

>>Side note.
Anyone noticed Peter V'landys' pronunciation of rugby league? Sounds like "Rugba League"
