..definitely off field rabble gets mirrored on field.. ..but you can't question the player's leadership group, without questioning those that follow,, in my opinion.. ....sooner or later some players must get sick of all the leadership pillow talk, and soft action..

Jmae yeah I don't want the billionaires to pay everything.
I'm using it as an example
If they're crap at board level
And don't flip as you call it.. What the hell are they doing?
How long has Mrs Pratt been there! ? As a board member what's she contribute!
It's just money for two seats on the board.
That's hardly what the club needs

I say we set up a trust/fund and collect membership monies into it until we get the changes we want.

Simple idea now there must be people on this forum with the legal/financial nous to make that happen.

Just imagine if we had 5,000 "paid up" members @ $400 each? Or 10,000.

A war chest to be handed over only on certain conditions. First amongst them would be a total spill of the existing board & a properly elected one in it's place.

Sure it's fantasy. But I like to dream.

Who's in?

I saw RollTheDice on the news in damage control.
I also saw two former number one picks in a very uncomfortable position for footballers.
They're on the news not for football reasons but for football club damage control reasons.
That's unacceptable...
Andrew McKay grow some balls!
Last year Bryce Gibbs asked the club for its plan going forward.
The club have him a flowery plan .. The usual .. We've heard them all too!
20 by 2020 ... 5 flags in 3 years etc

Now after round two when anything can happen.. ( st kilda over the dogs) this club has ripped away every incentive for every player and every coach in roun
Any wonder the club is being flushed down the toilet?
Is this leadership from President RollTheDice and I get 6 months severence trigg!

Joke!

Do you all know the story of ' the sword of damokles" ?
Thats not how you manage...

Joke!


Is that different to the Sword of Damocles?

No such thing as a 'c' in the Greek alphabet..
But did you say the club has no financial problems and just downsizing to get rid of superfluous employees?
Like a head of recruiting in a season we will need one?
I take it sos is wearing two hats?
What's the latest on the bombers and asada?


Timing is perfect - you walked into this one with your eyes shut funny boy!

WADA appeal lodged

At all times I've maintained WADA will deal with this. :thumbsup:

So much time so little to do

A Kickstarter/Indiegogo campaign called "buy our football club back" and we would need to raise enough money to buy out the current Mathieson/Pratt cabal! That's going to take a lot of pledges!

Especially once you factor in the site's percentage and any associated marketing costs...

Spent the whole morning trying to decide which club I'll barrack for when Carlton ceases to exist. I've always had a soft spot for the Bulldogs ...
