2015 Club Rugby: Harbour v University at fubar [orfu.co.nz community]
DVML’s Terry Davies has gone deliberately quiet on all SECRET SANTA help his company gives to Otago Rugby, more evidently so following recent purchase of The Highlanders by local parochials.
Yesterday’s dish-out to ORFU (“charitable status”) is just another *feel good* cover to the multimillion-dollar transgressions charged to Dunedin ratepayers, for PROFESSIONAL RUGBY operations.
MAKING IT WORK
Remember fubar stadium is costing ratepayers over $25 million per annum. The ‘blistering handiwork’ of Mayor Dave Cull and his cronies, Greater Dunedin.
NONsustainable as all HELL.

What if? Dunedin... 
Maybe the ORFU will put the $19,940.96 towards paying off the black tie dinner debt ?
Now wouldn’t that be the decent thing to do, Simon. The theft of this money is a stain on this council (both political and administrative) because they are too gutless to retrieve the Black Tie Dinner debt. Put this in the context of the Citifleet Fraud. People asked, in this case, why others were not prosecuted.
Make no mistake re the stadium. The council has been alerted to screaming red flags concerning CST spending, while key individuals inside claim they are disgusted themselves with what appears to be virtually fraudulent spending but still………do nothing.
Pursuing Citifleet fraud is peanuts, by comparison, but the council vainly try to assuage their own guilt about doing nothing re the CST/Stadium spending by appearing to go all shock/horror at Citifleet instead. An easier target, I guess, especially when the fall guy is dead.
We need real leadership from the top. Not ‘leadership’ from wimps who shit themselves when the Old Boy Network come knocking at their doors.
