Did you ignore half the quote? We were below standard when it mattered 2 years running and had a disasterous trade week (and off season) that saw the last 5 first round picks exit for bugger all and we basically hung Treloar out to dry and put it on the players saying they didn't want to play...
Ironically GWS might use "our" pick 2 to bid on Daicos forcing us to pay a high price. Just to rub salt into our wounds of incompetence. Did we really think that pick would be much later after 2 dismal finals exits in 2 years and that trade week?

Yes any member can nominate provided they are either sufficiently qualified as such or determined by the board to be membership qualification...

I am very confused by the thread title.
Who elected O'Donnell? I can't find a member that can recall casting a vote.
As far as I can see O'Donnell replaced the last remaining elected board member, albeit that said election occurred last century.
There are no vacumes. The board is responsible for the people in charge of making all the decisions, including the list manager even if only via the appointment of the footy department head if they don't do it directly.
In our case in particular we had a report telling us the salary cap was...
Aside from a number of reputational damaging comments, casualy vacancy appointments to replace directors for every available position for the entirely of this century, $12m down the gurgeler on the pubs and changing coach after winning a flag and then having our best winning season in our...
