Brian Barwick new chairman of the RFL

We in OZ also have a new CEO whom has taken on a huge role with not even knowing who Cameron Smith is/was.
Just goes to show Mr.David Smith knows jack about this great game of ours, but I'm not about to judge the man until he gives it his best shot.....below is a short snippert from our papers.

A new era for the ARL Commission begins on Friday when David Smith begins life in the chief executive's hot-seat at Rugby League Central.

The 44-year-old Welshman takes on one of the highest-profile roles in Australian sport fresh from a 25-year career in banking.

A former British Army soldier, who began his working life in the counter-terrorism unit, is credited with turning around the fortunes of Lloyds Bank International amid the worst global financial crisis since the 1929 Wall Street Crash.

*********************************************

Those early years in counter-terrorism might come in handy in dealing with the press that are constantly stabbing CEO's in the back...I wish him and your new CEO the best of luck in order to keep rugby league in the spot light, healthy & wealthy..
