My family has had significant business dealings with MlG's family dating back to the 90's. He's a guy you want on your side, and no question he gets great things done behind the scenes. He just lacks polish as a presenter.

Madhouse?

The reality is the clubs' finances are in a concerning state and haven't improved to the liking of the afl and board since Triggs arrival. The levers for this are membership, sponsorship, commercial operations (merchandise, coteries, fundraising etc) and debt management. Read between the lines, Virgin is an AFL sponsor, and rescued us as we couldn't attract a new sponsor, and Trigg oversaw the acquisition of CareerOne and whilst not responsible for their demise, ultimately couldn't find another major sponsor.

Trigg has done a great job in the areas of uniting the club, community engagement, diversity and inclusion, AFLW, and the public image of Carlton. I've liked what he has brought to our club, and thank him for his energy and dedication to our cause. He did oversee the extension of Hyundai as major sponsor, so big tick.

What I'm interested in is particularly the boards' responsibility and accountability in all this. 75% of the board are long term board members and have overseen poor governance and decision making in football decisions, Ratten, MM appointments and their sackings, poor list management and recruitment over 15 years and now this decision. All while they have retained their positions on the board.

I didn't say I want to get rid of him, but his communication skills are not at the level. I cringe whenever I hear him speak publicly. He either needs to improve in that regard or let someone else be the front man.

Absolutely. Perhaps MLG is a strong board performer but he's terrible representing the club in the media.
Danny Frawley is a brainless flog and he made MLG look like an amateur yesterday. And not for the first time.
It was embarrassing listening to it.
If we don't have a person on the board who can represent the club well, get one. If MLG can't accept that, @#$%&! him off.

Efforts like the past 72 hours have the capacity to deflate months worth of momentum.

Fair enough, but perception is reality in the AFL landscape. He needs PR advice and media training ASAP.

The proof is in the reality - we're not one of the big 4 and we're lagging behind in the membership stakes.

We can't hide behind the "when we win they will come" strategy any longer.

Time for the Board to put up or get out.

Thanks to Kate Jenkins and there was know rift between SOS and Trigg and don’t believe all the bullshit in the media maybe timing wasn’t right but there’s never is..

Trigg was more involved in women’s league than focusing on sponsorship and membership Trigg is a good bloke but won’t take us to next step let’s all move on because our next CEO will be one of best going around believe you me

Caro and Jenkins are very close and SOS is upset it’s all bullshit and Jenkins was the first to interview Lethlean
