TOPIC:

If one had to order the WAFC, ARU and AOC which one be on the bottom. Here is my brief summary of the three.

The WAFC that could not give a stuff about the WAFL.

The ARU almost bankrupt and spurned $50 million. Axed a franchise that has shown ability to grow the game in WA and has cost about half what the Rebel have cost.

The AOC who has the head of the organisation paid something in the region of $700,00 who appears to adopt the Sgt Schultz approach "I see nothing".

Swan 42: The Aru are way out in front. You could quite easily add the ACB to your list.

It speaks volumes that the ARU makes the WAFC seem almost competent.

Swan 42: True enough

I am still trying to get you to add the ACB to your list, here is a list of their problems:

the national side does not hold the ashes
it has slumpped to its lowest ranking in test history
it nearly provoked the biggest strike in Australia's sport's history
they are strugglling to get a major sponsor
they can't get a cricket ball fit for first-class and test cricket in Australia
they have allowed grounds to become 'all puropse' so that they can't set the early part of the season
they had a first-class match called off against the NZ tourists because the pitch was 'unfit'.

How did I do Swan 42?

Theres a few more Ark.Big Bash has lost $5,000,000 each year it's been played.BB6=30 million.Did here the ACA say during the pay dispute that CA also lost millions on some unsuccessful online venture.Sometime not Cricket related venture.

The ARU were smart enough to buy back the Farce, so they could piss them off legally...oh yeah and they got costs awarded TO THEM after the failed shambolic legal fight.

Id put the management of the Farce up there, they made the brain dead decision to sell their licence back to the Aru for sfa...where was Forrest then? Hes full of crap.

Yeah ACB is right up there as well...

Tbh AFL leaves them all for dead

gtr; thanks -- I think we could also add one more thing to the list: the introduction of drop-in pitiches, which, unhappily, just don't change enough over five days. I still scratching my head over the Pakistan series, when they nearly chased down 500 on the fourth innings. Then they go out in the next two tests and could not bat fou four hours on flat tracks.

Did someone mention Essendon drug scandal? The decimation of leagues around Australia?

Yep, we can add the AFL as well as the ACB to the list.

Richest comp in the country, who btw broke attendance records once again this year. they are doing a lot right.

Find another comp achieving that in the country I would agree but your mind numbing bias cannot accept it.

Given SDFC record of breaches on and off the field I would not be throwing stones.
