...certainly the Murdoch press would have exploded if, say, Julie Bishop or Theresa May had said this:
"I tell any man who comes to work for me that my first job is to make him a better husband."
But then again, when Zienna Merton bought the Florida Panthers from the brink of the insolvency knackers' yard, she was in a position where she could (and has!) told Murdoch, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn about you..."
Fortunately, she didn't have to do too much more, in almost all instances, to make her men on the Rochdale Raptors better husbands and significant others, more than by setting a good example to them (well, there was an instance with Daly Cherry-Evans, where she dressed him down for a full ten minutes!)
By hiring Happy Badger to run Raptors, she chose someone that she didn't have to make a better husband, but asked him to act the part as if she had to do so (to be fair, just a little, some finer details)...and one thing she cannot stand is the term "WAGS" (she expelled someone from the Daily Mail for saying that earlier in the season)...
...so a private party and soiree, with dancing, on Magnetic Island, the players' wives and girlfriends, simply catered and wondrous food, and a few words of individualised thanks from Zienna to her team (including the Oldham Owls' RSC team, who didn't do well in RSC, but were brought along to Australia for the semifinal)...
...as for the injuries' issue, she merely said, "These things happen, what will be, will be..."
