Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3506258, member: 9853"] Badel, Read, Meyn report Ikin is on the verge of leaving the Broncos for the QRL job. Ikin denied it a few months ago, but they claim he's had a change of heart and has reached the final four candidates with interviews tomorrow. He has declined to comment either way. Hard to imagine him not being the favourite if he has thrown his hat into the ring. [I]QRL chairman [B]Bruce Hatcher:[/B][/I] [INDENT]“We hope to have a CEO very soon. We will interview the four candidates and then it has to be ratified by the full board. I would expect that to happen in the next week that we will know where we are at with our new CEO.”[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“We are looking for a football person. Whoever gets the job will have to notify us of their notice period. The contingency plan was no rush, no panic. We have Rob Moore as interim CEO and he is a very safe pair of hands. He has done the job before and he is available until the end of August, so the successful candidate would have to give between a month and three months’ notice."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“Our role in the game is from the grassroots to sub-elite, which is the Hostplus Cup, and the contribution those teams make to the NRL is significant. We have to do our job in the business of rugby league so there’s no doubt we are after some good football leadership from our new CEO.”[/INDENT] [I]Ex-QRL boss [B]Rohan Sawyer[/B] in Feb:[/I] [INDENT]“Ben would do a wonderful job. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Ben when he was a director. He is a super intelligent guy who not only understands the game of rugby league but understands business. If I was running the search, he is someone I would have on my list and want to have a talk to because he is one of the better administrators out there that I have worked with.”[/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
