Of cause you cringe... I understand that... Why should loyal Reds fans pay the price for poor administration? It’s not fair... But this is where the QLDRU is leading the Reds and there fans... Nevertheless referring back to one of the articles QLDRU board members don't have to get to cocky when going to the ARU to cover their financial failings. The ARU place its terms on the table not the other way around. Let's just hope the ARU are fair-minded and the QLDRU put a realistic future business plan on the table to grow their returns in QLD.
I'm not QLD bashing here TOCC it pisses me off when these sports administrators get on boards and run down their unions. NSW and WA has still got jokers like this also...
The good news is the Reds are looking good under McLink and I'm sure with the talent coming on will do better and better...
Separating all Super 14 teams from the unions might be a good idea. If unions are to be paid for developing players amateurs will have to sign contracts... I can’t see it working… you can't stop people crossing borders... Most development at amateur level is done by local clubs not the unions…
