Looks like the 7 year bug got IT in the end.

Must admit since Oct '08 when Mitsui bailed out of the farmin, NXS have had a real tough 15 months & sooner or later, Ian-T's neck was gonna b on the block.

These sort of times are a real test of true leadership, guide the ship safely or go down. Sadly in this case we saw the later (nicely put by Chook, giving the man his dignity). Afterall the SP did break the $2 barrier in May 08, lest we forget. Its been on a downhill slope ever since.

So whilst the mkt digests the latest development, lets look fwd to the bigger picture & hope for a better 2010, after all shareholder value still matters.

Hope to see Echuca farmed out at some stage, Auriga drilled nxt year & then of course there's Crux - waiting 2b brought online. Call that wishful thinking perhaps.
