News John Olsen asked to be AFC chairman

[Vhaluus]

Or, ....... inefficient.

or a liar.

In this case I'd say he's all 3.

 

[fortunatecrow]

Sincerely hope this isn’t true... the least popular premier of the last 30 years that embodies everything about the good ol’ boy Adelaide clique.

You must mean SA only, wouldn't even make the podium in Victoria

 

[FR0GGY]

or a liar.

Lazy inefficient liar.
Would fit nicely on his business card.

 

[Deaneus!]

Soon, Kali Ma will rule the world.

We cross live to John Olsen being sworn in as club President.

hopefully that’s Chapman’s heart that’s been torn out

 

[Mr_Moogle]

I'll give you this one Deaneus. He looks more like Mola Ram than Abe Vigoda.

i have to say, i liked the Abe Vigoda reference, but I’ve always been struck by his resemblance to Mr Ram

I find the people who brag about how many long hours they work tend to actually be lazy...

Or incompetents that use it as a crutch to defend poor performance. And it works on stupid people. "But they work so hard, do such long hours".

Was on a committee and had a tough time getting rid of a CEO who satisfied all 3. Definitely lazy, only what he wanted to do got done. Entirely incompetent, when faced with decisions would choose the worst option with remarkable consistency and despite claiming to work 80 hours per week, couldn't get his tasks completed. I'm convinced that the he set the alarm to send for 3am to send off the odd business hours prepared email. Was always related to an agenda item, so when it came up, " did everyone get my email Tuesday morning?". Then some dip s**t, "Terry, you do too many hours". Infuriating.

There's always one in every organisation I've worked in and almost always in a position of power.

We're going through it now with an interim
manager, who I'm convinced their only completed task is to change their email signature

Answering system message will be next on the hit list.

Lol, got to laugh at people who are more interested in a fancy signature than the content of their emails.

Would you buy a used car from that man?

 

[Pugsley]

Would you buy a used car from that man?

No.

 

[hey shorty]

Would you buy a used car from that man?

If I was buying it for someone I didn't like

 

[Red mist]

I wouldn’t buy a felafel from him.
He likes people to munja after getting them drunk on prospect.

 

[MRB37]

The realistic view on this is Olsen is 75, he's not long term option. So either someone they desperately want doesn't want to do it yet, or no one wants it and their absolute refusal to consider anyone outside their circle will see them put a part time option in place until they can think of someone else.

Why can't we find another Chairman like Bob Hammond who not only was a great footy administrator but he was highly principled.

Enough of the dodgy Chairmans.

Does it have to be AFL ratified? Hence Kelly from NBL shifting some of his stakes?

Because those personal operators are non existent now.

They control our board so I'm guessing they'd have to approve the chairperson too.

So Kelly shifted his stakeholding in the NBL and it wasn’t seen as enough. Major player. Type of Chair we need.

Or, ....... inefficient.

Or poor at delegating, resource management or priorising work.
