  Great question - and if we will not accrue points until we're under the cap, who makes those important decisions given our Chairman, Head of Coaching and CEO have been deregistered... We need to get under the cap ASAP if we want any chance this year....

    Can they make those decisions in less than a week? If they get rid of a player/s won't they still have to pay them under our cap unless another club will take on those payments?

    A lot of questions to be answered.

  Peter Sterling should step up and help stabilise the club until the proper personal are brought in, just like when the dogs brought in Steve Mortimer in 2002. He wouldn't be a permanent appointment but a calming influence that's very much needed. This is a fresh start, it can also be the end to some past officials that can't seem to let go. The Greenturd ran through the list of personal that the club had hired, fired & being voted out & made you realise something had to give. Peter can take the club and point it in the right direction. On 9 he still speaks as my club so he still loves the club. That's what the club, supporters need!!

    Does Sterlo have the skills? Steve Mortimer did have a business background behind him. I don't want to rule Sterlo out as I'd love to see him back involved with the club. Is there anyone else people can think of that would be a good fit?

    I think he would make wise decisions. He would know if anything was over his head. He would be good for public relations which is really needed.

  This is why the decision should've been made yesterday morning or last week. Prior to the AGM

  There is still the constitution to content with.

  Phil, whats the procedure now. Emergency General meeting to select more board member?

    The current Leagues Club board will not be affected. We now have a four person NRL board while the Leagues Club board continues as it was, with the same numbers. Geoff Gerard went with the NRL to tell the players I'm told, so I assume the NRL wants to work through him. However, based on past alliances/loyalties Geoff may get left out in the cold, and we could see Tania Gadiel become chairperson. There is a possibility that Bevan Paul has to step in as technically the lone shareholder of the club, and he could make the board appointments. It really is an unprecedented situation, and once again, shows what a heap of piling crap our constitution is, because this scenario has not been even remotely accounted for.

      If Gaidel becomes the chairman that will be a complete and udder joke, ill call it now, she will be the worst in the clubs history with daylight sewcond, she is not the person to take this club forward, she and Garrard should have gone with Sharp.

      The factionalism wont end with her in charge, nothing will change, i was expecting her to be forced out.

        An udder joke? Or an utter joke?
