SAVAGE job cuts and a cash shortfall have spun the Queensland Rugby Union into a stressful corner, triggered by the Reds’ slide to non-events in Super Rugby.
Up to eight QRU staff, some in the marketing and commercial area, were made redundant last week to slash costs.
Sources indicate that the QRU is also yet to pay off hefty six-figure sums to several major creditors because of a short-term cashflow issue, although payment plans have been organised.
