Sayers will be more than adequate, an experienced expert operator , has managed much more complex scenarios.
Let the pooh stench settle, give Luke some time to activate some changes it will be gradual.
We’ve all been denied any progress for so long and still dreaming of a savior , patience humans are difficult to mange, give Sayers a breather.
Media is behaving like vultures over a carcass.

Well I am hopeful current board mechanics will change its the same old 15 year stench that needs a shake up

Sayers should be CEO answering to the board doesnt have enough experience answering to the public domain like shareholders and has never been the 'boss' until recently.

Too much false promises political talk - dont talk the talk like a politician walk the walk and I am unimpressed.

Yet you are backing a guy that has "never" walked the walk and has sold you only on talking the talk.
Makes total sense.

This new ticket doesn’t even have a plan yet going by what Vince had to say in the Age today. Still unsure and unorganised about what they’re doing. Trying to get favourite sons involved. Wow!
If people are looking for a well organised challenge to the current board, this bloke looks like he falls well short of that and by an embarrassing margin. Having to get his mates on the Jumper Punch to stick up for him is where he’s at.

This ticket is a disgrace.

They are disorganised and making it up as they go along.

They, and those who support these Muppets should just go to the deep south in the US and get Trump to lead their cause, they will find some common ground there at least...maybe instead, someone will tell them the world is round.

This ticket is not good for Carlton in the current environment. There's better ways to negotiate a change to the constitution...find middle ground.

I want Sayers in for the next 3 years. I don't want to be changing CEO's like Collingwood. I also want to ensure that Sayers is held accountable too, but he needs to start with a fair go...so find middle ground instead of tarnishing the Carlton brand you fools.

Talk about cut your nose to spite your face. Just a bunch of foul mouthed hicks imo.

Dannyboy your are nothing but a puppet. But who is pulling your strings? Is it synbad?

And life is like a box of chocolates.

And there's a wind of change and a new broom sweeping through Carlton.

And the times they are a changing.

And if a tree falls in princes Park and nobody is around to hear it then it was probably Sayers that pushed it over.

And you can't squeeze blood out of a stone or powerade out of a sherrin.

And the strings of a puppet are the ties that bind him but also the ties that sustain him.

And the rain in Spain Falls mainly on the plane.

And you don't know what you've got till it's gone., even when it's early doors.

These are the truths I know.

You need to take a good hard look in the mirror and meditate on them.

:lol: :lol: :lol:


(sorry couldn't help myself, it's silly season)


Well thought out post. Hilarious :lol: :lol: :lol:

I finally did it, I decided to go to their facebook page and see what their go was.
It is quite embarrassing.
They are promoting all negativity flung at the club by the media and have released a BS statement of their intent that has literally no content other than parroting the media headlines.
Then to make it worse they are hiding in the shadows until the club confirms the EGM date before they say who they are.
It feels like a Trump rally with all the secrecy, one eyed followers and absolutely no direction on what they can do better, just outlandish statements of skewed opinions and beliefs.
The worst part is that they seem to be so focused on their own aspirations they can't see the damage they themselves are doing to the club.
If they really supported the club they would withdraw immediately from this nonsense.
What a complete and utter farce!

if they were ferdinkum, they would show themselves, provide details on what they plan to do. And how each person can improve the club. And let everyone think about whats best for the club and who to vote for before the EGM.

Why would they spring this info at the last minute?

That is even less chance of us even thinking about voting for them i would have thought.

I think its crap that just 100 signatures can destabilise a club so much.

What is the basis that these guys are trying to take over and destabilise the club.

The current board who all bear responsibility for the current mess are still here.

The current board tried to sneak in a new constitution to make impossible to hold them to account.

How is the current board not responsible for this current mess.

A group of people that have been proven to have screwed up and everybody here thinks by replacing the president things will change.
It's all of the power brokers who pulled the strings, who failed to draft or find the process and personal.
The same board who have left us holes in our list.
The current board failed, but they sacked the coach and got a new president so everything will change? How

Every supporter from every other club can see the board needs to go.

I think the record membership & positive bank balance will buy them a bit of credit… Judd is gone. Last check of the website says Mathieson had a footy-focused role, but survived, despite the ‘skills based’ composition of the board.

Might be time to spill the tea.

Every supporter from every other club couldn't give a flying @#$%&! about our board. The current board is 3/4 turned over. As others have said, if this mob want to give us a run down of who they are and how they are going to fix everything then maybe the members will start listening but it's time to put up or shut up

I know the EGM don't have a real ticket form, but the anything else would be something better is almost worth going at the moment.

Its just one embarrassing move after another.

Omg really, anything would be better than what we have.? A board that got us out of debt, and now we have 4 new board members and each has unique skills that we need going forward.

This is not primary school, where supporters get to run an AFL club.

Why is it embarrassing ? Because the media are saying so? Because they dont know what’s going on?

Get over it. Teague needed to go. The assistant coaches needed to go.

We refresh and go again. Teague should not have been appointed in the first place.

Its not about Teague.

Its about how we do things. By lumping everyone into a Teague discussion you do the club a disservice.

Why the flower would we ask Collingwood how to go through a process to select a coach.

Embarrassing.

Isn't he working for the club already?
Do I detect a bit of white anting?

I believe I read recently that he had resigned. :?
Is that correct Walsh? Is Prendergast assisting the rival group and planning to take the top role?
