This is correct I wouldn't say poor either but they have stagnated and we are what seems to be in a stand by mode.
My biggest issue with these guys they've seemingly had a plan but cannot execute there plan A and are constantly having to pivot.Pivoting and having the ability to do so is great but what your pivoting to has to see purchase and I believe that's where we are stuck especially in the recruitment space..
The Brown and Lomax saga has magnified this issue we have constantly pivoted to worse options and haven't had the ability to execute our plan As.Much like the Jnr Paulo issue though they seemingly have covered this well with the recruitment of Leniu but this team still needs more.Can the Lenui be our Batman because he's been Robin his whole career now he's got to step foward and be that guy can he well let's see we have 4 yrs to find out.

Fair summary, reading between the lines.
There's clearly a drive to change the front office by Beach - Mike Rush would seem to have the right pedigree so that's a positive step.
Is MON also part of the change? Peak workload for player negotiations ATM so you would assume it's the wrong time of year for that.

MON is filling a seat right now, his position is poorly bounded and likely won't be replaced "as is". This will be a job deliberately left for Rush to work through.
I could almost all but guarantee that MON won't be here in 6 months time. I'd bet my house on it.
And it's likely a move that has been specifically left for Rush so he can put his first stamp of authority on the setup of the club - I'd wager the replacement won't be like for like and will be specifically crafted for the individual that we bring to the club.

What's that got to do with it, I understand your a property investor Adam, if Sydney properties continue to go down, don't think for a minute you will be immune, regardless of their/your location. Cappy is one of the smartest on here, so be careful who you misjudge.
Economically speaking you could argue that prices will fall, i.e. overpriced to buggery, but supply and demand is going to be the final determanet in putting a floor on prices and I don't think for a minute your house will be worth shit.
The questions you need to ask is that if inflation keeps rising and property plateau's, that you may have a serious devaluation effect in a relative sense.
Let me say that Bank, Government and Institutional money management has never been worse in the history of our country...... probably selling your property and buying gold is the safest way out, or a mix of both.

Agreed, The Captain. It's likely no two NRL GMs would have exactly the same responsibilities. As a footy focused CEO, Rush is likely to take some of the GM's responsibilities. He may even free himself up by hiring a GM corporate to handle a lot of the stuff Sarantinos used to do.
-
Agree the Finance manager who ever that was would assume much more responsibility in a day to day sense, may even been promoted or in turn they have head hunted someone. No doubt Saratinos would have planned as much, knowing we had a more football oreintated CEO coming in.

"Shhhh don't say it on here where everyone can find out."

"Careful Chief, he might think by that comment you are looking for some podcast or forum privleges."
Lot's of things done and said, how do you think this happened and why is MON still very much part of the survival at this point?
That kangaroo trip last year involved the 4 of them Beach, Saratinos, Ryles and O'Neil.
They said they all got a better feel and a direction for the club during this venture..........i.e bonded somewhat (my words).
I made my own summise that this plan was set up when the group of 4 came together to develop a plan during that trip..... there was a reference by the Chairman that Rush was one of the first (not when they first met) introduced.
Not surprising if and once a plan was devised that Ryles would introduce Rush into the process, given their respective relationships
At this point the strategy was founded for Saratinos to move aside and the next stage of the process evolved. The recruitment of Sua, Luai and Lienu all comes under Saratinos's watch and as HOE has explained Saratinos opened the door for extensive TPA's. Sarantinos wanted to finish the best way he could, i.e. by creating a CEO opportunity with a football direction/expertise. He would have aknowledged there was not much more he could do than what he had achieved.
Finny (IEE member) when commenting on whether Cameron was first choice or not was correct in laying out a due diligence process, (even if at that early stage Rush was a potential pick for the job) which had to take place. Such diligence had to take place to ensure that it wasn't just a "captains pick" to coin a phrase.
Everyone would have been pretty certain Cameron would not go for it and who knows who the other applicants were, duly provided by the "head hunters" sure again more integrity to the process. If Cameron expressed any interest at all, we will not know!
My guess is no from the beginning.
On the Sully issue, I am not convinced that O'Sullivan was an integral part of this other than being opportune in a time of change........., an opportunity opened up and his manager who more than likely has gone to Parra to participate in a negotiation started by the Bronc's. Further integrity for Broncs in the perception of a win over a rival. i.e it would be too coincidental for two clubs to decide at the same time we should make a offer to POS. i.e. Broncs were the obvious instigator.
We were out leveraged again and that is because of our own history! no surprises there, as its regularly pointed out that the underbidder is us. i.e. used as a counter balance. So be it, we will be there again one day. This sort of stuff is where Rush will be very different in and using his experience.
Now let me reaffirm that this is supposition on my part, none of us are going to be privy to actually what happened and how!....... I'm still trying to come to terms that MON is still here and it must I think, go back to the original discussions on that Kangeroo trip.......i.e. they were not extending blame, just what they need to do in the next stage of the process of bringing us on the right trejectory
My further guess is for MON to be still here means he was somehow part of this process..
How long, will MON survive into the future will be the topic of a many blogs I imagine.
The fact that Saratinos fell on his sword and did not sack MON goes along way to explain why MON is still here. Rush would never have taken the position of HOF.
I think the question maybe imposed subject to success next year but I am sure there will be a number of opinions put forward.
