Rob Nichol, David Moffett discuss Provincial Unions rejecting NZ Rugby governance reform
It's Only Sport podcast | The Platform - A podcast by The Platform
Votes have been cast, and the Provincial Unions have rejected the first proposal to change New Zealand Rugby's governance at the governing body's special general meeting (SGM) on Thursday. The PU's have instead voted in favour of the second proposal, which requires at least three of NZ Rugby’s nine board directors to have experience serving on a provincial board. The first proposal - backed by the likes of the NZR Players' Association, the majority of the NZR board, and the New Zealand Māori Rugby Board - wanted all nine directors to be independent.First off on It's Only Sport, Martin Devlin is joined by NZRPA boss Rob Nichol, who shares his thoughts on the vote and what comes next. Then, Devlin chats with former NZR CEO David Moffett, who believes the result of the vote could well be the end of Nichol's time at the NZRPA.
