But not on here. No way in hell do we have 100 people registered on this site, who definitely have voting rights, and would agree on the same thing for long enough to organise an EGM. Would love to see it happen, but resigned to the fact that change is happening on Bruce's watch, or not at all.

I'll pre-empt it now - it'll be like mikkey's thread, people will shit on it - then some will come forward, only to realise that they have an AFL club support or a junior membership and as such are useless, or they haven't registered to vote, and then some pedantic squabble will break out about who should be the new president, or whether it should be Burns or Malthouse...or whether Cordy stays....or @#$%&! notches....

What are people's thoughts on the lack of previous football players on the board. Sticks .... Won't go there and bear. For mine, the board should have at least one more football person.
Also who should that be?

I am starting to have the gut feel that Ratts will still be coaching next year. They have now so many excuses to roll out. As long as we win a few games and dont get completely smashed this season. The current Board is reactive and Sticks does not like the word "review". If nobody strong gets onto the Board and stands up to Sticks we might just see more of the same next year.

Interesting

Not suggesting increasing count - you made that assumption

More about replacing existing. Does not sit comfortably with me that a board of a football club has so little representation from ex football people

I don't mind as long as the board member is committed to what's best for the club and not merely there for the kudos, power, line their pockets or make business connections.

It happens.

But not on here. No way in hell do we have 100 people registered on this site, who definitely have voting rights, and would agree on the same thing for long enough to organise an EGM. Would love to see it happen, but resigned to the fact that change is happening on Bruce's watch, or not at all.

I'll pre-empt it now - it'll be like mikkey's thread, people will shit on it - then some will come forward, only to realise that they have an AFL club support or a junior membership and as such are useless, or they haven't registered to vote, and then some pedantic squabble will break out about who should be the new president, or whether it should be Burns or Malthouse...or whether Cordy stays....or !@#$%& notches....

Put me down, i can vote. Adult member and registered.
