    It will prove the process was biased and flawed but won’t change the result. A lot of sh&t will stick to the ARU Board which will instigate change - over time.

    Still want to see the ARU bank account and forward projection.

    Asking Vic and WA for advances on Test matches years into the future is a big concern. They must be trying to hold on financially until the World Cup and hope we get a big pay out.

    NOT future building. It’s hand to mouth stuff and cripples any future Board, thinking and plans.

    Agree I couldn't take another disappointment after the many hopes dashed through the year!

    The Senate Inquiry Report will be tabled tomorrow (MONDAY 13 Nov)

    Hi all,

    Have checked the Notice Paper for the Senate tomorrow and our report is going to be tabled!! See item 5 on page 4 of the notice paper.

    https://www.aph.gov.au/~/media/02%20...aper.pdf?la=en

    Not sure what time but I THINK around 3pm. We should be able to watch the tabling via the APH site.

    I am a bag of nerves but can’t see how the inquiry can do anything but throw the book at Rat’s Arse, given the weight of evidence that was submitted to it.

    Bet all those RA sponsors will be among those watching with interest!!

    Nice find Ali. Every one of us should do this survey. There is a section where you can recommend how sponsors should interact wit Rat's Arse. Don't hold back your opinions, but do hold back on abuse.

    Ha! I would, but (a) I don’t like league and (b) I’m currently in Thailand & can’t make it back by KO!

    Come on you England though!!

    Unfortunate timing for the survey, what with the Senate due to report tomorrow and all!

    Would it be unreasonable to assume the survey company is an east coast based one with no idea about what is going down in rugby at the moment?!!

    Look at it the other way. If a whole load of negative surveys arrive within 24-48, hours of the tabling of the senate report that might give some impetus to a sponsor challenging the Rat's Arse board over their behavior.

    Just filled it in! I’d say it’s eastern states as the prize does not include air tickets for anyone out of state. Typical bias crap.
