David Gallop stands down as ARLC boss
Gallop addressed all NRL staff at Rugby League Central headquarters in Moore Park at 1pm to inform them of his decision to resign.
Sources suggested last month that Gallop was growing weary of the post after more than a decade at the helm of the NRL. Gallop denied at the time that he was considering stepping down from his post.
Gallop resignation comes at a time when the NRL broadcast rights are being negotiated and several months after the ARLC independent commission was formed.
There have been reports of tension between Gallop and ARLC chairman John Grant, however it is not known whether this was the reason behind his decision to resign.
"The Australian Rugby League Commission today announced that the Board and Mr David Gallop had come to a mutual agreement that will see Mr Gallop stepping down from his role as CEO of the Commission, effective immediately.
ARL Commission Chairman, Mr John Grant, indicated that the Commission was put in place to bring a fresh approach to the way the game can be envisioned, structured and governed. It is the single controlling body and administrator of the game and the trustee for Rugby League in Australia. Its responsibility is equally to the future as the present.
"David understands the need for a fresh approach. Taking this into account and with the interests of the game at heart, the Board and David have reached an agreement that the game needs a different style of leadership detached from the past for the next stage of its development, Mr Grant said.
He paid tribute to Mr Gallop leading role in navigating Rugby League through a decade of growth and change that culminated in the establishment of the Independent Commission earlier this year.
agreement should in no way detract from the job David has done over the last decade. He has proven his skills as an effective administrator despite having one of the toughest jobs in sports management and he can be justifiably proud of his achievements and the legacy he leaves, Mr Grant said.
leadership and dedication through often challenging times has been a contributor to the commercial success of the NRL competition and the popularity Rugby League enjoys today.
behalf of the ARL Commission and the Rugby League community I thank him for the countless hours he has devoted to promoting and improving Rugby League in Australia, Mr Grant said.
