Official Club Stuff 2019 AGM/election

[FishingRick04]

Wanganeen would make a good board member, as regards having an indigenous voice on the board. However he should be one of those appointed, not elected. Putting him up via election is Port trying to get the result they want, not risk a potential candidate like Thompson, who could apply some pressure to Koch and KT, getting in.

I don't have a problem with Hansom, when your fundamentals of the football department have been flawed for years, her tinkering around the edges for the off-field isn't going to do much one way or the other. We need a board Member with China experience though more than anything else, so she's one of several who could go for someone with that skill set.

Ideally I'd like to see Thompson as the Members rep., Wanganeen as the indigenous / ex-player appointed and a China expert appointed and piss off whoever are the two most conservative naysayers on the board, holding us back from leveraging / working China properly.

Thompson by himself can’t do much to be honest. The board votes majority rules, the board is staked.

If you want change it will take a board overhaul.

Agreed, but you can only do that one brick (board member) at a time.

Just voted for him. The status quo as it stands simply isn't gonna cut it.

Voted Thompson. Love Gav, but if the club is intent on having him on the board, sub him in for one of the randoms Koch appointed because reasons.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Thompson x2

Yeah time to replace Holly with Gav

 

[Winestoppable]

Thompson x2.

Like others have mentioned already, the problem is not with the incoming candidates but with Kochie's puppets.

Add another to the voted Thompson with exactly the same thoughts about Wanganeen. Get him on the board, but not through the Members.

 

[Alberton Proud]

Voted 1 Thompson

Bit of namesake would be nice at board level

4 Votes in the Thompson.

Happy with either George or Gav too; but I personally liked the look of our both CT.

If it makes you all feel better. I had a business meeting in Sydney and this guy worked under Thompson.

Spoke very highly of him, his love for Port and his skills.

So his bio matches the real world. It was only by chance as he told me he worked at Macquarie so I said really do you know ..... he smiled and then laughed “why”. Our eyes matched and it was love at first sight lol okay too far.

The result will be known on Friday night.

Do they give out voting numbers or just who won?

 

[portly]

Gavin's pic out there so the result is obvious.

Wouldn't mind knowing how close Thompson got.

 

[badbeats]

Yeh article in the tiser... they wouldn't publish it unless he won

Yeah there is no way anyone beats Gavin for a member elected spot. It's a ****ing stupid candidate for a member vote. He was always going to shit it in. If they wanted Gav, they could have appointed him as an indigenous board member without having to consult the members.

Seems a huge waste of time for other well suited candidates and for those who want to impart change.

Unless it was a certain president's choice to remove another candidate he didn't want on the board?

So the general supporter consensus is not in sync with BF.
Perhaps explains why nothing ever changes.

 

[badbeats]

George said on FB that Gavin won.

We need to realise that BF is such a small section of the supporter base. More vocal and passionate probably, but a small cross section.
