    What a shock. All the Rebels fans angry at RA should really be furious at their own incompetent Board.

    The same Board who "loaned" the club $8M.

    This is a lack of governance and responsibility.

    The deal to save the rebels includes the directors being not liable for their criminal activity and the investors supplying the money to allow rebels to sue RA. I wonder why RA aren't going for it, despite being best for Rebels - best for Rebels creditors only, which some don't seem to get

    While that catastrophe unravels, I'm hearing that the mood from RA has softened towards the other Unions given board members suddenly realised they're dependant on votes at the upcoming election.

    Can confirm there is latent "mood" for those left from the Eddie appointment and then ejection of he and McLennan

    ‘We’ve got to reset the game’: RA says next five years key to code’s survival

    Rugby Australia chairman Daniel Herbert has warned the game cannot afford to squander the expected windfall from the Lions tour and back-to-back World Cups after announcing a $9.2 million loss for 2023.

    Could be some bullshit from a News Corp paper, but if so then it would be really bad for Australian rugby.

    This masthead understands Nine and Stan Sport’s initial new offer to RA is $23 million a year, down from the $33 million they pay the game annually.

    @KiwiMurph if what's reported is accurate, imagine offering your form centre only a single year deal.

    Or he didn't want longer, to keep his options open?

    EDIT: Oh yeah AR? Probably cos they spend all their money on that Leaguey under previous management, idiots
