jez,
Has to be doesn’t it? Why else?
It’s a good question for ROAR journos to ask when RA does their media roadshow.

RA took our 2027 RWC participation fees as an advance because you know, broke

Cec,
My son who’s a “finance” guy succinctly said when we were talking about it “Professional Rugby’s fucced”. It may have been after the VA at Rebs, I can’t recall exactly, but essentially they’ve missed their chance and there’s no way back. I hope he’s wrong but I fear he’s not.
However he wasn’t wrong about Lanzhou Beef Noodle Bar at The Glen which is where we were heading at the time! 👍

We’d already cashed the cheque

GP,
if Edmed still had the ball, otherwise “by the Laws of the game” it’s a penalty, L9-14.

Don,
Suli was a very good winger in the NRL but once Cooper Cronk left Suli’s game dropped.
He was definitely a better NRL player.

Phil,
“2. the DOCA allows the current directors to walk away without any penalty while they will pursue RA for money they may or may not be required to pay.”
Considering the comments from the VA about the difficulty of funding the litigation if the DOCA isn’t accepted;
““An appointed liquidator will be unfunded. Accordingly, a liquidator would require litigation funding in order to pursue the insolvent trading claim and RA claims.””
it’s unlikely there would be any litigation so RA would be mad to load the gun for them.

LAW 9:
“14. A player must not tackle an opponent who is not in possession of the ball ”
“Sanction: Penalty ”
If the ball is gone the tackle is outside the Laws, it’s pretty clear.

TWAS,
both. The VA seemed to suggest there might be recoverables only achievable if the consortium fund the legal action. So, creditors may get more if they vote up the DOCA and there is litigation so in a way it does rely on it.
No DOCA and funding the litigation to obtain those recoverables becomes much more difficult if not impossible especially as the outcome isn’t certain and the balance of risk v reward changes hugely.
It’s always easier to litigate if someone else is paying for it!

TWAS,
except one!

But the consortium are trying to bribe the creditors, including the ATO. Their DOCA offer to creditors is conditional on no action against the directors. So creditors have to balance up the extra return versus the public good of a prosecution. If they sign up for the DOCA they’re bound.

Yep, then withdraw from the arrangement, ex directors walk away with clean records even if reputations are a bit soiled still legally able to hold directorships.
Oh and RA, we want you to sign up to this so we’ll provide the funds to sue you at the same time as you give us the same funding contribution the other SR teams are getting.
The bribe is what, an extra 20c in the dollar to the creditors?
I can’t see RA agreeing but you never know I suppose.

I see what you did there

I think you’d be a playmaker driving the team around the park, perhaps slightly behind the play but driving none the less! 😂
If Australia is looking for big men, let's not neglect the old and the fat
Ned’s a good player and a good bloke.
If he and his family are happy to go to France sign the contract before they change their mind!
He’ll probably be appreciated and recognised for what he can do as opposed to being vilified for not being what the baying mass think he should be.

rtb,
“IMHO, what we need is a structure where the State organisations have a primary responsibility for the growth and development of the game within their jurisdictions, working closely with the Districts and Clubs with support from RA, while RA is responsible for all national and international competition”
Isn’t that actually already the case now?

Don,
I think SOARR also skimmed over the community Rugby connections of the existing Directors they wanted to paint as out of touch with the “grassroots”.
