I lose track of who is on the Board. After all, I never voted for any of them.

Genuine question: when was the last time the members got a vote on the board representatives?

“Barely two weeks would go by without someone from our club, be it the coach or managers, engaging with our sponsors and partners who want to learn about how to manage elite performance. There is now a lot of knowledge transference going on between sport and business.”
- Steve Harris, Fremantle FC President

“The days of well-meaning but quasi-amateur boards are no more. There is now a recognition that if you don’t have your back office operating at industry best practice you will eventually suffer on the field.” - former Sydney Swans President, Richard Colless

"One of the first things I did at Hawthorn was organise for the players and staff to walk the Kokoda Trail. I think that sort of challenge taught everyone a lot about teamwork and having common goals, which is what you will find in business.” - Hawthorn board member, Geoff Harris

“Football clubs set goals and objectives and there are clear roles for everyone in the team that a lot of people outside the club don’t know about. They source best practice from everywhere.” - Adelaide Crows Chairman, Rob Chapman

“IT is always evolving and we are trying to figure out where the industry is going. It is the same in football. You look at the tactics that someone comes up with every year. You have to keep progressing. - North Melbourne director, Geoff Lewis

"Football club’s leaders such as the president, chief executive and coach are in “lockstep” and constantly communicate. Otherwise you have cracks and leaks and it is destabilising. Just like in a corporation.” - Geelong President, Colin Carter

"We're Carlton - @#$%&! the rest!" - Stephen Kernahan, Carlton President

LoGiudice next president: http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/b ... zqun4.html

Caro sums it up

Quote:
For close to a decade, the board has vowed to reduce its numbers and for close to a decade few have been prepared to vacate their roles for the sake of good governance. Kernahan promised the dying Richard Pratt he would take over the reins for the sake of stability back in 2008 but he, too, for whatever reason, has failed to reduce his board or to identify a worthy successor.

A mate of the Pratts and Mathieson. What other criteria do you need? :donk:

External forces have not ruled out challenging towards the end of the season with famous Carlton names such as Tom Elliott and Fraser Brown among those who could be part of a push for a total spill of positions.
