Mike Stofile is aparently set to return to SA Rugby and be an influential figure once more.
The Sunday Times reports that the former SA Rugby Union (Saru) deputy president is an unopposed candidate for the position of independent director at Fridays Saru AGM.
Stofile hasnt been involved in rugby since failing in his attempt to become president in 2008, however, it is widely believed he still has ambitions on the presidency.
One of two independent directors (the other being either the Griffons Dr Jan Marais or incumbent Keith Parkinson) will hold the influential position of chairman, as they will sit on the Presidents Council.
However, it is believed that neither Stofile or Marais are hugely popular with the presidents of the big five unions, who think they lack the aptitude for the role.
They are supposed to have strong business and rugby acumen but I dont think either of them has, a leading member of the big five unions told the Sunday Times. Theyve both only worked with small businesses and unions. Also, when Stofile left the last time he suggested his exit was racial. I wonder whats changed.
