Ah, youre surrounded given the numbers from QLD

First he called the sport "rugby", then he couldn't name the Kangawhos captain or name any players in the indigenous all stars and now he mistakes problem gambler and party boy Ben Barba's name for "Benji"

Ahhh, only in the nRL would they hire a CEO who clearly has NFI about the sport.

Code: Select all

A FRESH gaffe by the new NRL chief executive David Smith in a speech in which he got Ben Barba's name wrong last night dampened the power of his words about hope and confidence in the sport.

In November, when he was introduced at a media conference as the new chief executive, Smith could not name Cameron Smith as the Australian captain or identify any players pictured in an Indigenous All Stars moment which included Johnathan Thurston and Sam Thaiday.

Then last night he confused 'Ben' with 'Benji'.

Even their own CEO doesn't find their game interesting!

He loves League
who doesn't North of the Murray

but is he an expert on it after 2 weeks in the job
no

who do we want running my game
a bafoon who knows Ben Barba does not go by the name of Benji , but can't deliver the strategic plan to drive our game forward
or
a saavy business man
hell bent on delivering a 2 billion dollar media deal for 2018 & beyond , far in excess of the VFls

Yeah he loves league.












They pay his wage..........

how many people "love" their employer?

[rethink]

I guess Mr CEO is just a numbers, planning, speeches and meetings guy - not one of the many who actually watch the games
