Hope you're right mate.Think we were all hoping for a fresh name but that wouldn't mean he shared our vision..

I wish him well but when he was a Development Officer in Doncaster I cant recall any lasting legacy of his time here apart from appearing @ presentation nights.

Wasn't he the CEO @ Huddersfield during the merger with Shefield? that went well.
I am not convinced he is the Dynamic fwd thinking visionary to sort the massive problems the game has at all levels

I see a man who has had a lot of experience in working Rugby League, he is well known amongst players, press and officials and has limited academic qualifications, management skills, or wide business experience.

I see a man who failed as development officer at Doncaster, did what Ken told him at Huddersfield and did what Nigel told him at the RFL.

I see a man with no plan, no forward thinking and someone who will not upset the top bosses at Super League.

I see a man getting over £200k.

I see a man who I admire for achieving so much for himself with so little.

I see a man who will do exactly what he was appointed to do....

Merger? Takeover is the word you're thinking of I believe.

I think it's safe to say Ralph Rimmer wont be the saviour of rugby league . Then again if you look at the lack of quality around clubs in management ability it's hard not to sit at a rugby league meeting and recall the " "hearding "cats sketch . The Beaumont sage this week is a very good example of just how rugby league is managed ( or not managed. Probably time the fax board reflected on what has worked this season and especially why decisions had not been previously taken and why not. Ie there are I am sure some very pertinent lessons learnt this season and we should protect them for the future so as not to replicate previous bad choices.
