Episode 13 - ObiSteve Mascordi

The grand high priest of the Jedi order emerges to crown a new hero. Who will be chosen from the 12 candidates.

In this episode of the NRL Irrational Mergers mini series I am joined by Steve Mascord. The year is 1998, the newly formed NRL set out to reduce clubs to reach the magic number of 14 by 2000. The criteria is set and the 12 Sydney and Illawarra clubs are offered $8M and other exemptions to make mergers happen. This is a recap episode where Steve and I discuss mergers and what everyone over the 12 episodes have suggested.
