It is over 6 months since Scott Seward resigned "for family reasons". We all now know what that meant with the debacle of decisions that related to player signings, contracts and salary cap issues that the club faced, all of which was reported in the media.
We have not heard much from the club about the next CEO and who is being interviewed or even head hunted. We have had John Boulous as acting CEO during that time but will he get the job? What are his credentials? Is he experienced enough?
What would you do? Would you try and poach Brian Canavan from the roosters to be CEO? What about Gus Gould? Or Steve Noyce, as he is available? Is there another Raelene Castle around? Maybe interview someone from another code like AFL or A-League? What about getting someone from outside of sport and from the business world - would that work? What sort of credentials are we looking for in the new CEO? How much would they cost? Do we need to appoint an experienced senior sports administrator to make a statement to the members, fans, the NRL , the RLPA and the rugby league community?

Prior to him being the acting CEO i'd never heard of him. Are you able to give me a quick run down of who he is and what his credentials are?
Well we look to have missed out on every available centre on the market. Junior Paulo looks to have signed with the Raiders. He's doing a bang up job.
Surely if Seward was negotiating contracts with possible new players eg Foran & Hoppa he was involved in recruitment at some level? Has Boulos stopped doing this now?
i think they've actually recruited quite well. I think you will find Gutherson is a great addition to the team and if Folau can get his act together and you throw in the likes of Foran, Norman, Semi and you've got yourself a pretty good backline. Takka is pretty solid when he's fit as well.
Dont get me wrong would've love to of seen roberts in a blue and gold jersey, but realistically it was never going to happen.
Shit. That is even more concerning.....
