Dear NRL, with the recent news emerging that (a) the Independent Commission is at least 200 days overdue and (b) the 16 NRL clubs are stalling progress, by demanding a 40% increase in funding, it’s clear to me you folks need some extra hands around the office.
My circumstances dictate that I have some free time in the form of accrued annual leave, and I was thinking perhaps I could come work for you.
While my tertiary study credentials may be a bit bare, and rugby league proficiency well down the ladder of talent available, that by no means indicates my love for the greatest game of all is any less than the next crazed fan, who just wants to see their favourite code be all it can be.
Perhaps you start me off by answering the phones in the front office.
This would give me a good insight to the mind-numbing, menial issues that have been distracting your organisation from striving towards it’s long term goals.
Things like media comments, off-season player indiscretions and the like, I can handle for you.
Or maybe, you could have me work in your ‘expansion-committee’. Having me here means less time wasted by NRL on convincing Cronulla, they should move to Perth.
I could help take care of all the liason with expansion wannabes, collate all your data they submit, and keep everyone in the loop of any new developments, as we go about securing our next TV rights deal.
Speaking of which, I know our TV rights deal is high on the agenda and perhaps this is where the extra manpower is needed.
Fear not, because I am quite the helping hand here too.
I’d be happy to take minutes, organise some PowerPoints why the 16 CEOs can go jump in the lake, or even make some sandwich platters if the CEOs get their way and we have to start cutting costs.
The way I see it, you can’t lose by having me around.
It increases the chances of us getting something (anything) done, and leaves you important types free to take care of the important things, instead of dealing with all of these pesky distractions.
Kind Regards,
CK.

Gawd this man could be 'The Saviour, but hang on, this is not what the NRL is about. someone who wants to pre empt and handle difficult items. -- guess we ignore his offer (at least for 100 days). We are now well into the third year of IC organinising . disgraceful!!! Time for The Muppets and Dinosaurs to awaken and 'jump ship'. Pleeaaassssseeeeeee.
