Peter V’landys is considering stepping down from one of his two major sporting roles — most likely as Racing NSW chief executive — to focus on rugby league.
The revelation was made by Daily Telegraph Sports Editor at Large Phil Rothfield on his new podcast Off the Record, co-hosted with The Australian’s Andrew Webster.
V’landys, who also chairs the Australian Rugby League Commission, is said to be struggling with the demands of both roles.
“At his age with a young family, I think the jobs have become too stressful for him to manage,” Rothfield said on the podcast.

Amid political tensions and strained industry relationships, V’landys may walk away from racing, despite it offering a far higher salary.
A switch to a full-time rugby league role would require a constitutional change to allow him a similar pay package.
His exit would mark a major shift for the racing industry, where he led innovations like The Everest and The Golden Eagle. A move to focus on NRL would coincide with key TV rights negotiations and plans for expansion.
