As the statistics and crowd data dictates, who cares? Peter Beattie’s NRL is about as discredited as Raelene Castle’s RugbyAustralia. Both codes and their Head Administrators are losers IMHO . The only winners out of both of them are Israel Folau, Alan Jones’ radio ratings and other sports.
Even Queensland NRL referee Tim Mander is over the NRL, he will be a LNP Minister in the next LNP Government after October 2020 while Graham Annesley’s career has gone backwards since he left the LNP in NSW to be an ill-fated NRL administrator on the Gold Coast.
