Melbourne Rebels have announced that Brian Waldron has resigned as CEO of their new rugby union franchise.
Chairman Harold Mitchell told SEN radio just before 9am that he had just met Waldron, who had “offered his resignation on the spot and the board has accepted that".
“And we announce that acting CEO will be Pat Wilson, administrator with us, who has a long history of administration at the ARU and is well known to the players.
“A sad day for sport in many ways, but we have to act in the interests of the Rebels and that’s what we’ve done.”
This morning, Mitchell said he spoke to Waldron last night and admitted his concern for Brian Waldron in the wake of the Melbourne Storm's salary cap scandal.
