And the good news is that Forrest is up against some very amateur hour talent in ARU HQ.
Chairman Cameron Clyne spent a few years running NAB - a tentacle of Australia's cushy banking oligopoly - and it clearly did not prepare him for chairing a sporting code that faces actual competition.
As Forrest goes head-to-head with Clyne, he might want a few tips from his good mate - Wesfarmers chairman Michael Chaney.
Chaney is the guy who - as NAB's chairman at the time - hired Clyne as the bank's CEO in 2009. Chaney was still there five years later to help usher Clyne out the door.
