Well it's no surprise...

I agree with Synners entirely on Mick let alone the entire club fiasco.

Currently the CFC is run by billionaires and some skid row millionaires who are fabulously successful in what they know about which isn't football.

For the last 3 years they let Mick who was once a good to great coach oversee the final touches of a potential serious contender into a complete rabble with no checks or balances along the way. Mediocre assistant coaches, old game plan and then he had no real idea on how to modernize it. And the Board and prez had no plan B on how to deal with Mick.

In other words a classic Catch 22. A Board who didn't know what they were doing and a coach who didn't know he was in the 21st century.

And I spend $2000.00 a year on memberships for the family. I would do it willingly during the so called dark years because I had hope for light at the end of the tunnel. But what does Synners say? The light has been turned off.

Maybe tom?

The media cycle already has the board on the agenda. That will not relent through the season, and it will intensify as the AGM nears, particularly if someone like Tom is pulling the strings.

What I hope however, is that TE isn't the only one forming a ticket.

Why don't the media have hawthorn board on the agenda?

Look you can ask look forward to sure terrific stuff on this for the next month.
Or so...

Not much else going on and the media needs to focus away from Essendon*.
This is a ripper time to get done kicks in to the board from all and sundry.. Try not to waste the opportunity...

Trigg should follow him out the door

I would call a general meeting for all CFC members and let all those interested enough to come do so and have the ENTIRE Board present including Jeannie to answer questions on the current fiasco, including two from me.

1. What is your relevance including contribution to the CFC.

2. What is your knowledge of 21st century football administratively or actively.

Maybe have questions put on notice for the Board to answer with those most common grouped together as there would be sure to be many.

And after saying that, let me say this, I think this post should be for a different thread.

New coach = new sense of direction. Its something that we havent really had over the past 3 years (contending, need to improve the list, not that far away, need to rebuild the list, we can turn it around, complete rebuild needed)

A coherent message/gameplan that we are working towards is all that I ask for.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry.

I never thought I'd be pulling out the SAKC so soon

Laugh, it's the much better option.

lol SEN offline ...

I can stream live radio from halfway around the world flawlessly, yet with SEN, can't even load a simple web page. What a joke of a site.

He may have to.
The AFL are investigating the Betts' statement and he could be in a bit of strife.

Just a sad day all around. We are a rabble. This needs to be the start not the solution. Full rebuild required and say goodbye McKay, Trigg, Board, Wiley, Buttifant & Thomas
