Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2135579, member: 1764"] To a degree. However, it was a double whammy: Kerry Packer was a Roosters fan. John Quayle, Ken Arthurson's 2IC, was a Rooster from way back. Therefore, he was always going to give Kerry Packer preferential treatment for pay tv rights etc. And that got right up Uncle Rupert's nose. It's just evidence of why league officials and board members should not have direct ties with clubs. Super League made a visible statement about that when John Ribot resigned as Broncos boss to take up the Super League CEO role. It was their way of saying "Yo, Arko and Quayle, this is how you should separate your interests". [/QUOTE]
