The bard is 5-5 now that Ryan left... so the Pratts are desperate to not relinquish control to the Mathiesons.
Im a bit of tea leaf reader and i reckon elections will be coming up or JEannie will leave the board and take the portrait with her.

ok..if you are correct that visy was in control of the board and now are losing control of the board, (and mathiesons had no control of the board) therefore logic dictates that visy are largely responsible for the clubs poor recruitment, development , list management and football performance.

mark cant comment.... he might even be the first president who never was a president.

the pratts reallise its not 6-5 its 5-5... so theyre digging in at the moment

time will tell what that means ....

mark should have announced himself as a strong leader and and not a puppet by those running the club
if they got angry.. he should have resigned.

Do any of the board have a forte? Beyond being wealthy, that is? I would love to know what Pratt's strength is - certainly it isn't.


Musicals.

Has great relevance to the running of a football club.

Her favourite album as a child was Show Boat (true story).

Explains our recruiting policy.

That really was a marketing campaign for the ages. Only winning the flag could've done it the necessary justice it deserved.

Michael Warner says Mark LoGuidice wont have an easy transition into the Presidency

Still may be a challenge

Warner says the board is too big & there are 4 Billionaires on the board which is also not good

Surely Mark would have known this, unless he is a total incompetent.
And if he is incompetent or delusional then @#$%&! him off as well.

I heard Warner talking about this. He spoke about it like it was bad. He thought it was a way of deflecting attention of Richmond (introduced the story saying "we all know Richmond are in a bad way but things are no better at Carlton").

I for one would welcome a challenge. Shake the place up. Board is too big, too many factions etc - sort it out once and for all.
