Not really because the role is fairly undeveloped in the industry. Football department GM's are a relatively new thing in the NRL. There aren't a huge pool of young candidates to choose from. Unless the club goes and gets an established name like Frank Ponissi, I don't expect O'Neill's replacement to be particularly well known. The club might even appoint an interim GM like Nathan Brown to get us through the off season before looking for a long term replacement.

Chiefy and Jimmy Wong?....... Probably a training partnership......on second thoughts make that "toilet training"
Why is Marl O'Neil still running Parra when he has clearly shown intrest in taking the Tigers job he could be undermining our junior ranks as we speak the board should get rid of him straight up

First of all have we got confirmation that he's leaving ?
Secondly, it is accepted practice for executives to announce they are leaving well before their scheduled departure days. The importance of their role demands more than a weeks notice wherever possible. He has many responsibilities that need to be handed over, a smooth transition is required.
Finally, to suggest he would intentionally sabotage us on the way out shows his little you truly understand Chief. To do so would be career suicide. No club would go near him if it became known that he'd be the kind to pull that kind of stunt. Clubs may be in competition with each other, but they also talk to each other.
Only a person of limited integrity would assume that of someone else.

Not until he was employed by the Tigers. He didn't recruit for the Tigers whilst he was working for Manly.
"Parra's problem is how do we identify the best players in our system to keep. Hopefully Ryles has the club looking for more than size and a link to the Rhinos like BA did.
I believe Ryles will bring the Melbourne system of identifying personality…"
"Who the hell we going to buy and when we let go of
Lomax
Brown
Cartwright
Lane
Ofahengaue
Dunster
Hands
Other i cant think of
Got only 2 players to replace them WOW"
"I like the idea of keeping juniors but you need experience players to lead them around the park or they will get lost
So we have to let one or two go to buy other good players "
"Most players at 16 who are touted as future stars fail. It is because the players who dominate at that age are usually the biggest and strongest or those who developed early. Even as they get to 19 years old more than half of the U19s SOO players…"

Who replaces him?
Thank that mythical character God.
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Now, will the club look for a top notch replacement or go with their usual ethos of anyone cheap will do.

Jimmy was just showing his limited integrity Brett
He likes his fingers in more than 1 pie
Well maybe CE could match Chiefy in integrity?
