Undoubtedly a big exit in the rugby world. A long term leader of the SRU, and a big commercial operator. Who's replacing, the big question?

can't remember how much he was earning, but it always seemed to be a fat wedge given the size of the org he was running iirc.

Scottish rugby has its work cut out if it wants ro expand beyond just getting bums on seats tor a couple 6Nn games imo, so interesting to see who comes in to replace.

Half mil a year. Easy cash to just keep bumping tickets, vending, and merch. To be slightly fair, sponsorship also not bad. But plenty not happy about his reign
