I already love Buckley.
Me too, I have always admired JB for what he has done for our club, but I believe Bucks will sling us forward at a rate of knots for years to come. Is it just me or is it more exciting for next year than this year?
Wonder what his public presence will be.
Dont think so maybe in bed with his PJs on with the Electric Blanket on 3 trying to figure how to get the club players and supporters goingPretty quiet to date, maybe he's planning a big announcement?

Haha , great analogy.He is doing the same in this role as how he played; thus far into 2017.
Weve gone from Luna Park to Marcel Marceau.
I'm glad this thread was bumped as I was going to do the same thing yesterday. Would love to see an interview with him regarding his thoughts on the direction he sees the club heading in, plans for the future, etc. Actually, I would just like to see something, anything from him.
He was the keynote speaker at the function prior to Friday's game. Did anyone here see that?

What a waste of money. Sure, let's go after a failed bid. Because Qatar winning the rights isn't suspect at all...Interesting times for Ben, arising from Australia's bid for the 2022 soccer world cup, when he was CEO of Football Federation Australia - http://www.theage.com.au/sport/socc...al-of-australia-2022-bid-20170627-gwzz4g.html
He's not accused of corruption, but ...
"While Mr Buckley, who led Australia's bid as FFA chief executive, and former FFA chairman Mr Lowy, are not implicated in any corruption, the Garcia report details new evidence that shows the pair variously supported practices that appear to have breached World Cup bidding rules and, in the case of Mr Buckley, suggest the FFA was prepared to make improper offers to secure the votes of FIFA chiefs."
I don't know what implications, if any, this will have on Ben's tenure as chairman, but http://www.theage.com.au/sport/socc...n-world-cup-bid-payments-20170628-gx0lih.html states that Swiss prosecutors are investigating potential corruption charges against the recipients of the payments. I think I also read somewhere that the US Justice Department are also investigating.
