Wait, you have a talking beagle???
I would suggest there's plenty came out in that session to conclusively prove that they have failed to meet their own standard (transparency) and therefore the other standards of balanced representation etc would be thrown into question.
I would also consider the protracted campaign of starving the Force into a situation where they have no choice but to ask for money and then use the attached strings as a noose to kill them might fall foul of anti-competition laws.
C'mon the
My thoughts are currently, if the Rebs werent taking all the money would the Force (let alone any other franchise) needed to ask for a loan?
I think we would have, because evidentally the ARU would have pissed any additional money up the wall as opposed to giving a greater share to the club’s; and given Emirates didn’t go from us to the rebels we were still going to lose that sponsorship money which contributes to all the financial troubles initially.
Yeah, the other thing Pulver revealed was that we didn't get a fair suck of the sauce bottle....if no rebels to excise the $28m, the Tahrds Reds and Brums would have got a mill each, and Shit Shield $10m
Force would get a kick in the nads and probably a fine and a warning to pick up our performance, as we were shit even WITH the ARU "assistance" of parachuting in Braindead and Foley (sorry forgotten his nickname)....and instead of Folau Hunt and Korobiete we would be given cheapskate Wessels Meekes and Naisarani ...and never a look in at returning players Douglas Huston Quade Huggers Smith Genia etc

Just preparing a couple of additional things to put to the Senators. Remembering Pulver's inept attempts to limit the scope of questions - referring to the Terms of Reference. I looked back to the first post in this thread. Just to see if he had any grounds for his objections.
Should have known. As can be seen, the Terms cover every conceivable aspect of this charade and for good measure puts a final Term of "Any other related matters". This bloke really is a dud. No wonder he can't answer questions.
