I say, he used to play for Tigers. They say 'Oh really? wow' We haven't managed to retain one superstar we developed. Fire him lol. We are debating how Benji has affected the team but man, he isn't the CEO. CEO is a dud. A milhouse. We got the dud.
The DUD at the moment is one Benji Marshall not Pascoe.
JP is doinghis job - maybe Benji should do his!
He is. He was contracted to play under JP and he's playing. He has one game left.
Mate - he could kill 15 people and you would defend him.
There is a recruitment team that sign and let players go. It is not the job of the CEO.
Are you saying managing the salary cap is not one of his responsibilities?
I'm saying he was fined for the Farah error.
How has he gone over the salary cap? - he has managed it correctly has he not?
Is he responsible for salary cap management, Ie ensuring we are compliant as well ensuring we don’t overpay players etc?
He would not be solely responsible for how much each player is worth to the Wests Tigers - why does he have a coaching team, recruitment and head of football? They say they want player X .... he would calculate that we can afford this (it may or may not need to be ticked off by the Board), he would possibly advise the group we have X amount of dollars left on the cap and that's it. He would sign the contract when it is produced. That would be managing the cap to my mind. What else do you want him do with it?
Yeah agree, the CEO needs to trust in the departments decisions within their specialised areas of expertise. If not then why are they even there.
You can’t have the CEO questioning and doubting every decision recruitment (or any department for that matter) makes. There needs to be some level of trust, and unfortunately Ivan and co. failed in their decisions.
