Tew on Campbell TV3: Let them eat cake !

Jump to Comments

Reference: Mr Tew (CEO NZRU) public appearance on the Campbell Live show 25-6-2009.

Mr Tew was wondering why the love affair with rugby is wanning by the NZ public.

Fool.. here is a starter list

1) The same games over and over every year. 3x SAR, 3x ARU.
2) Screwing around with the rules (Yes, NZRU and ARU love affair with ELVs)
3) Starting the season too early
4) Screwing around with rugby jerseys ( Super 14 away jerseys, ABs horrible Silver away jersey)
5) Wearing out players that in the past that would have lasted 10 years, that is now becoming 5 years.
6) Breaking NZRU legislation to suit current demands. Luke MacAlister into ABs
7) Ignoring the Robbie Deans CV to choose the loosers of RWC 2007.

From his ivory tower of NZRU headquarters, Tew cried “Let them eat cake!”

AND hows this any good for the NZ game 4x vs ARU : Tokyo hosts Bledisloe  (more cake !)

How can this man still be there after the next world cup, there should be a healthy rotation of CEOs at the NZRU every 8 years ( or maybe 4 years).

Revolution is in the air !
