No, I never said board. it was like a sub-committee to fight against the move. He was one of main people involved.
The Fitzroy board of directors were also unanimously against the Brisbane merger, both before and after it actually took place. So I'm not sure what this sub-committee was.
He also didnt have a chose but go to Carlton. They had the number one pick that year.
Murphy had a choice between Brisbane and Carlton. He essentially chose Carlton because it was in Melbourne and he could be closer to family and friends.
