Yeah saw this.

Sounds great, in fact exactly what we need. A president focused on our main objective and being transparent with the members and supporters.

Love how he says "your football club" instead of "this football club"

Agree, Sayers writes directly to members, values the basic individual, Luke’s a very good communicator,
Cant waiting to see him activating changes, at long last.

My thinking exactly, passy. I'm optimistic but cynical.

As they say... actions always speak louder than words...

So many times people can say what you want to hear without delivering.

But he did kick the review off a lot earlier than expected so that should instil confidence he's not all fluff...
 
I don't want to be cynical but I'll wait till things improve.

Oh FFS

"Tell them to stop work on the Sayers statue 'til Passy is on board."

"What? Why? What's wrong with Passy?"

"He's fighting a strong case of cynicism"

"Isn't there a vaccine for that?"

"Nope, just kool aid"

"Not drinking huh?"

"Nope! Gonna have to wait for him to get thirsty"

"Send him our new 5 year plan ... and some pretzels"
 
No surprises in The President's first communication. Being handed the reins with the club in its strongest position financially in 2 decades he can focus on football matters . We were always going to get a summary of the review, it's standard practice and was something to be expected, I'm happy to see that his board will do the right thing there.

Good Luck to the President and the board, expectations will be very high, let's get behind them as they take us through the next stage.

Dear Aph,

I wanted you to be the first to know that our football club has today entered its next phase of the extensive independent football department review that has been conducted by external panel members Geoff Walsh, Graham Lowe and Matthew Pavlich .

As communicated last week, the external panel had delivered a final report to me, the Club’s Board of Directors, and CEO Cain Liddle.

This report contains detailed information from key stakeholders across the entire football department and will be used as a basis for our club to make necessary and informed decisions to take the football department forward and improve our on-field performance.

With our AFL season complete, our club is now in a position to fully brief the senior leaders of the Football Department on the review findings. This process will commence this week and will involve consultation between the Board and football department regarding the recommendations provided.

The Club will take the necessary time required to absorb this review and any outcomes or decisions will be made on the timeframe that is in the best interest of the Club, not based on external expectations or pressure.

As always, I remain committed to continue being open and transparent with our members and supporters regarding any outcomes and decisions that will arise out of this review, including the summarised findings, and as such, once this process is complete, our members will be the first to know.

Saying all the right stuff, hope the actions reflect the words but I have a good feeling they will. Nek minit

I'm pretty pleased with the club sticking to the process and not letting media pressure dictate anything.
Me too...its actually quite enjoyable reading and listening to the media lose their shite like a bunch of toddlers all because our club is following proper process and not giving their Monday morning headline.
 
I'm a member, didnt get an email. Memo to the club and the new President, communicate to ALL your members... not much point if they can't get something as simple as sending an email to all your members right.

You better let Cain know ASAP coz with all the freebies he’ll throw at you that’s like a another 5 memberships towards his KPI…not to mention you’ll get 135% off any Murph 300 and Eddie 350 merch!!!!

Just check it not in your junk mail folder
Would not be surprised if it was under name Luke Sayers.
What type of membership do you have?
I would expect this email should goto all members so if not, it a ****up in membership department. But more likely it in your junk mail or trash folder and the new president name of Luke Sayers on it is maybe how it got there, as the mail app you use your email for, probably see's the unknown name of Luke Sayers and puts it in junk mail rather than inbox.
