It is being reported he is being looked at by the tigers to make a return to the GM role.

"If we had signed him, no body on here would've complained, but as we missed out, we dodged a bullet or he isn't worth $1mil yada yada."
"He went to the Dragons ffs. They've made the finals once in ten years. That means every club in the game 'had the ability to get him'. They just needed to offer the most money. If we had offered the most we would've got him for sure."
"No it's because we're not a strong club. We've had a revolving door of board members, CEOs, general managers and coaches since 1986 and won nothing. 'Accepting mediocrity' hasn't been the problem. Market forces are what's held us back."

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"
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.
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.
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?
