Our chairwoman says she has survived RL " mafia- style practices ".
Influences outside the club are playing hard- ball, but this lady's one tough cookie and is not budging.
In her own words she said…
"I can't be conned. I can't be bribed. I can't be scared off."
Fighting words. I'm surprised very little has being mentioned in the media about this.
I wonder who these influences outside the club are, and why they so desperately want her gone?

Sounds like a bit of attention seeking to me,
One way to get a photo in the papers.
If she's been offered bribes , it's the Police she should go to, not the papers!

I agree with your last sentence GCT!

Marina didn't sign Buzz's flag that day..
 
Rothfilth has an agenda against her for some reason.

Probably because she's a gossip magazine magnate, and it competes with the gossip he and his cronies spew in the Terrorgraph.

EVERYONE know Rugby League is run by mates for mates….
I can't imagine she is making many fans in the boardroom.

On another note, I'd be interested to see what sort of business acumen the new board members are bringing to the table of WT's.

Id be interested to know if she has done anything positive at all for this club or is just an NRL puppet.
My opinion has nothing to do with her gender either. I don't care who sits on our board - male, female or sheep. As long as they are helping our club and doing a good job

She's kept her position. So she must be doing something right… Whatever that is.
 
I feel a bit for her. She could be the greatest administrator the sport has ever seen, and she'd still cop loads of flak from the old boys clubs that are forever loitering on the sidelines of this sport.
 
Sounds like the narcissism one needs at her level is rearing its head. While what she's saying may be a little exaggerated, I've no doubt she's encountered a lot of garbage, unitelligence and self-entitlement since she started the job. She's just asking for a little bit of credit.

Anyone actually know what she does though?

Her main role is leadership, making sure everything runs effectively in all aspects of the governance role.
The chair manages meetings, ensures the board is balanced and board discussion is open and includes all directors. It's also her responsibility to make sure all relevant issues are included in the agenda and that all directors receive timely information for meetings. Makes sure everything runs smoothly at board level. Makes sure everything is ship shape and above board.
Hope that helps.

Alan Jones went at her for a while didn't he?

Yes he did. He also referred to the club as Balmain numerous times during the interview. Clueless twat.

Alan Jones has a go at any woman, who holds any position that has even the slightest bit of authority. He would be ecstatic if _every_ female on the planet just sat at home and did nothing, said nothing, dreamed of being nothing and amounted to nothing - that prick's perfect little world :unamused:

And he will nearly always back the player over the administration. He was all over Taylor at the time as well which is ironic given the Gary Freeman/Brian Smith issue when he was coach. I suppose it's a way he can feel good about himself….

He and Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon are both birds of a feather Flip….Both Misogynists.
