I actually see this as an opportunity for non 'old carlton' people to get involved at the club so we don't have the board passing seats on it down from one Pratt etc to the next.Young wannabe suits trying to ensure the club is stuffed full of fat, boozy, suits for all eternity. You wanna talk cliques - no overalls. Joke.

Seems unfair you dislike a bunch of people because they wear suits to work. Ultimately I want successful people in business running my club irrespective if they wear a suit to work or not. This could provide path ways for new blood to lead the club and not just the same old same old.
But hey let's all be negative about a group of people trying to actually do something. I thought gen y were lazy, but hey they are doing something so let's pot them.
It is actually good to see the kids of tomorrow trying to do something now. After all... when we are old, they will be the ones in the right age group to be running the club. Whether they can actually do anything about it now is another question. They could just be laying the foundations for the future.
Just had a look at their ordinary website , took forever to load and when I clicked on the Apply Now got an Internal Server Error messageI don't think the issue is that the members wear suits (at least, I hope it isn't, because I have to wear suits to work ). Maybe the issue is that one of the requirements of joining is that they assess your resume to judge your suitability.

I didnt get that far... and I think that I am finally past the 'young' stage...I don't think the issue is that the members wear suits (at least, I hope it isn't, because I have to wear suits to work ).

see my review above... there are a lot of issues with the website TBH.Just had a look at their ordinary website , took forever to load and when I clicked on the Apply Now got an Internal Server Error message
It is a young professionals group after all, I'd have thought it necessary to assess potential members suitability. (as with many other groups)
There is a big difference in attitude towards what constitutes a professional.It is a young professionals group after all, I'd have thought it necessary to assess potential members suitability. (as with many other groups)
give me alcohol and I will network with anyone... except that as an IT professional, my concept of networking might differ slightly from someone who is a lawyer...Fair call. To be honest, I have connected with them on LinkedIn and considered joining purely to meet other Carlton supporters (I know very few), but I get really shy in networking situations so I'd probably suck at it.

'What do you mean there are no catV cables to plug in...'
It's the only way I would talk at a networking event.Oh God, I'd never drink at a networking event! I talk far too much (about inappropriate topics) when I'm drinking.
I wasn't intending to sound judgemental mate.There is a big difference in attitude towards what constitutes a professional.
I dont wear a suit and tie to work, but I am considered a professional. I am tertiary qualified, have worked all over the world. Have been headhunted to go and work for AOL in the states (thank god I told them no). Am I any different to someone who has to wear a suit and tie to work every day?
I've worked for web development companies that deal with insurance brokerage, information technology (which is different to working in IT which is what I do... but hey... it's Intel so you make up your mind), commerce and with the average bloke off the street wanting a web presence.
At the end of the day, I dont think that I need to be judged on my resume when I say that I am a professional.
Looking at the guys on the YCP board, there are 2 lawyers, 2 property developers and someone from investment banking. Are they more professional than me?
Dramoth this aint the skulls, if you're interested you need only hit 'apply'.
Which is why I feel that there are two definitions of the term professionals in use here.I wasn't intending to sound judgemental mate.
If you (or anyone else) don't want to apply to join such a group, no one is forcing you to.
I see no problem with a "young professionals" group screening their applicants to a set criteria providing that it doesn't become a snobby circlejerk, which from my experience, it isn't.
I thought it was something you got from coaching Richmond.Dimentia is when you forget your change for the phone booth...
I'll join if we go together BB! Might meet some menApart from their dodgy website, I think it's a great idea. I'm definitely going to look into it more. C'mon Mebby, we can join together
