News Directors at the AFC... (2019 AGM Voting, with poll)

[feenix67]

Did they give any grounds for the decision?

"As a general rule, we don’t have Board Directors (other than the Chairman and those who have professional employment in media) fulfil interview opportunities"

"As a general rule, we don’t have Board Directors (other than the Chairman and those who have professional employment in media) fulfil interview opportunities"

* me, so much for being the director there to represent the members.

Thanks for at least reaching out and trying Feenix.

Been advised that the Crows won't be allowing the CrowCast to have an interview with our member elected Board member, Kym Ryder.

Anyone still in doubt about our club?

What do you mean “allowing” ?

Exactly that. I asked Kym, he said he had to clear it with the club, I asked Shutts, he said no.

That's the most pathetic thing I've heard from the club, absolutely pathetic

Maybe they don’t trust what he might say without significant media training?

They like to manage the message

Member rep should fall outside ‘general rule’ - our Club is a joke.

All organisations do, the problem starts when the message is badly conceived.

He’s allowed to represent the members, just not talk to them

 

[Scorpus]

I would have been shocked if the USSR Crows allowed the member elect board person to speak to the members.

That would be disastrous for our messaging. Can't have the truth escape

 

[Elite Crow]

So if he doesn’t speak to the members how does he represent them?

 

[Dixie Normous]

No taxation without representation....or something. Time for us to throw some tea into the Torrens.

Did they actually write that?

I'm embarrassed for them. Its a bloody fan based podcast. How completely out of touch could you possibly be.

He's the member's voice

But we're not allowed to hear it

Maybe he could do sign language or mime it?

Surely this is the end of the Muffin Men, how can you proceed with this pathetic attitude from the club.

The apologists will have a hard time defending this strange stance.

So they’re muzzling this bloke. If he had any integrity he’d resign. But he’d be back slapping with the best of them.

As a general rule , this is the first member elect that wasn’t already in the tent. What an organisation, they can just * off, not one more cent.

It's all about the CV for him

 

[1970crow]

Sponsors and other board members are members too. He speaks to plenty of members and canvasses a range of positive messages to bring to board meetings.

I bet there'll be an article in the next few weeks from afc.com.au with an (internal) interview with Kym Ryder

I copy/pasted it directly from the email sent to me.
