ALL 16 NRL clubs have this afternoon issued an extraordinary vote of no-confidence in independent commission chairman John Grant and called on him to resign.
A letter addressed to the NRL, signed by all the chairmen and chairwomen, is to be emailed to chief executive Todd Greenberg and the commission, calling for an emergency meeting to vote on Grant’s future. He needs four votes to survive.
The clubs agreed on the unanimous vote of no confidence following the breakdown in talks yesterday when four chairmen stormed out of a meeting at NRL headquarters on future funding.
Even the clubs owned by the NRL — Newcastle and the Gold Coast Titans — have signed the letter.
So too have the Wests Tigers and St George Illawarra who have relied on NRL funding to survive in recent years.
Grant was in a commission meeting yesterday and unaware of the move by the clubs.
