Woman to pull the bad boys into line

[ManlyBacker]

After the worst year on record for player misbehaviour, David Gallop has hired retired policewoman and security expert Gail Clifford to head an independent NRL panel to deal with off-field incidents.

Gail is the wife of NSW assistant police commissioner Denis Clifford, who is known among the force as a fanatical Parramatta fan.

At her request, the NRL refused to reveal her identity when it announced last Tuesday that a private investigator would join Graham Annesley and former players Michael Buettner and Mark O'Neill on the new panel.

The panel will investigate all serious off-field incidents before making a recommendation to Gallop on punishment. Clifford could not be contacted about her new role, but we learned the following about her from a Google search.

"Gail has an extensive background in security and publishing. After a distinguished career in the NSW Police Force, Gail managed a major retailer's security operations and established a private investigation company based in Sydney."

I wonder if she is a Sharks fan, she might be excited to have the opportunity to meet Paul Gallen next week.

I think that the following statement has already answered your question:

Further feminising of men is not going to be the solution.

I wonder how much the bounty on her head is........
