I am not sure any other club would obstruct one of Australia's major CEOs from joining the board.

We're Carlton @#$%&! the rest

We are in Australia right? Why we questioning anyone's religion ? What a disgrace . Now for fahours achievements- the man has one of the most ruthless innovative minds in the country. Have you seen what he has turned aus post into? Took it from a basket case stamp sales business to an ecommerce business .

Is the current media about the board being split over the coach yet more evidence of inadequate leadership?

The board voted for Sticks.

Sorta chicken and egg I would have thought.

Not sure what all the fuss about Fahour is about... he made a meal of NAB and Aus Post is riding the back of the internet purchasing wave. There are plenty out there that would classify him as an average executive at best, let alone preside over a board which is a different role again.

Fahour's obviously not good enough Synners, don't worry I'm sure he's grateful for the support.

May have to hitch your wagon to another star.

Any idea's or is it just ABS? (anyone but Sticks)

You dont get to Fahours position without ruffling a few feathers. There were people on the board that were a bit put out with Pratt coming straight in.

A lot of ego's in there.

Put it to a vote by the members.

Problem with politics for an insignificant thing like a footy club is noone want s a shit fight.
Even Pratt didnt want a shit fight..... very distaseful in the bigger scheme of things... which allows a group to put a guy ike Sticks there and change the constitution a few times and stay in ....... and in.... and in....
