What? its a sheep
Reports the Sydney Morning Herald:
"Shrek, the once-reclusive sheep is joining the corporate speaking circuit.
"The nine-year-old merino wether who evaded musterers for six years, with his fleece growing to 380mm long before he was spotted on April 15, has had several offers of more than $8000 to appear at corporate functions."
It's kind of sad that a sheep, that's right a BLOODY SHEEP, earns more than I do. Still it adequately illustrates the calibre of New Zealand's business elite doesn't it. Perhaps business confidence wouldn't be so low if at their corporate functions they were addressed by something other than livestock.
Further to the 'more teams in the NRL' discussion, chairman of the NRL David Gollop told Radio Sport last night that a decision will not come anytime soon and indicated that there was not a shit show in hell [paraphrasing] of all three teams getting in.
He said every dollar which went on the NRL could not be spent on grass-roots league. He wasn't asked to expand on what that meant.
Also Warriors hooker PJ Marsh's career is confirmed finished, he sustained a neck injury last year.
