Nothing to worry about , it's not like anyone is going yo come out and criticize the most inept,incompetent, useless organization in all of sport.

Release the survey results !

Really?  I'd put NZ Netball and NZ Rugby well on that criteria.  Although I guess you could say NZR are doing better simply because they only have the tea lady left to run things.

Not quite sure where Colin would have breached this new rule. He only shares his opinion, not that I always agree with it. Maybe gets some facts wrong. No law against that.

He abuses the crap out of people at a personal level.  He hides behind the fact he threw his license in.

So it's ok for you to make disparaging comments about those you disagree with but not for them to do so here or elsewhere?

Who is this comment directed at?

Which describes @Thomass to a Tee.

It's not a comment it's a question that was part of my response to Hesi but it's an open forum. Anyone can answer.

If you'd read the minutes of the pre-hearing meetings and the input from the JCA on the human rights position and Morton's rights, you wouldn't say that. The hearing was a facade for Purcell and the RIU's egos. and a bloody expensive one at that which is probably why they haven't gone there again and won't. They can't enforce a rule that the law precedes. So, they just try to scare people with their facile missives and rule changes and not listen to or hear stakeholders.

It's all part of the new transparency and consultation strategies.

Strategic Plan 2024–2028 : “an unwavering commitment to honesty, transparency, and moral principles.”

NZR may have some structural issues to resolve but they have one of the strongest balance sheets in world rugby and had a positive cashflow in FY24, the latest year reported. I don't think they'd even come close to NZTR as the poorest performing organisation in NZ sports.

Last October Ballesty said in The Rundown "We recently distributed an NZTR Stakeholder Survey and received more than 1,300 responses. We appreciate the valuable input from across the industry and look forward to sharing the results in due course. "

To me, 3 or 4 months seems a long "due course"

I believe the Racing/gambling Industry is in a big Battle  with the Real-estate Industry for that sort of thing!

God speed my saying good bye to it all!!! they are welcome to themselves!!!
