    May be a big move as the VicRU will fight harder than Cox to keep a loss-making side. Might also further flush out the ARU preference for removal - if their approval is required and they do so, it makes it virtually explicit that they are committed to it being the Force that gets the chop.
    If the ARU rubber stamp this then we may as well just fight this in the courts.. Once the ARU stamp it that is confirming that the rebels are safe and the force are gone..

    He has organised a re-jigging of funding, Rebels get nada and the top ups are cancelled to be used to grow the game as a whole.

    Force to be an example of how to grow a game going forward.

    Would an Enemy of my Enemy is a friend come into play? The ARU have not been kind to us during our existence and Jones seems to have been quite taken by Han's comments on his show. I want to be optimistic.

    Don't need him. The Twiggster just stumped up for the Force! Cox = Millionaire. Twiggy = Billionaire!!!

    The problem is the ARU don't care.
    They don't care about Twiggy and his money. They don't care about the alliance agreement. They don't care about arbitration. They don't care about WA. They don't care about rugby.

    All they do care about is getting rid of the force and giving money to some whinging bastards in the guise of it being for grass roots rugby.
