As a fan I don't know or care who the committee is, just like I have no idea who the broncos board members consist of and just like Cullen will cop the criticism for poor decisions by the Broncos. Gallop is a weak leader, a good leader inspires his board/team to follow his vision. Look at Greenberg, anything he wants go because he's a very good CEO which earns him the full respect and ultimately support of his board members. Gallop and his pathetic board for that matter undersold the games TV rights BIG TIME and in professional sport TV deals are arguably by far the most important financial factor. The fact that NRL dominates AFL in the ratings year after year and breaks record after record yet has a TV rights deal significantly less then that of the AFL just proves how badly undersold the TV rights are. If the "NRL" got a TV rights deal that it really did deserve could easily have a salary cap of $6m and club grants equal to the salary cap. First things first, Independent commission, too many conflicting interests in the current set up and a new leadership is required. Gallop's had his gallop and he failed to advance the game to a point it deserves to be at and instead from a financial perspective we are a second grade sport and the product is suffering as a result. NRL is a business and it needs to be run like one. [/QUOTE]
