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

[1970crow]

Didnt you have a go last time, I remember someone engaging this board during the last elections

Different lawyer.

 

[1970crow]

Nah, this is my first crack at it. Wanted to have a dash at things.

I'm new to the Forum, although I have been a Sharon Stone style voyeur for a while. I liked David Mackay in some of his earlier raunchier stuff.

I'm just a member who wants to see a member's voice represented.

No axe to grind but happy to represent views that are considered.

If I was going to have a handle, is "Jars" taken?

Change your username and real name to Kym Koster and you might have a chance. Who are you up against?

 

[Sanders]

I'm guessing Sanders.

You got me

 

[NTRabbit]

You got me

What do you feel your experience as a Colonel of the Kentucky Commonwealth will help you bring to the role?

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Just letting you know that I'm the other nominee for the crows Board. My name is Kym Ryder. Partner at O'Loughlins Lawyers.

27 year member, who loves going to the footy with his son and his mates.

Want to have a crack at representing the members voices on the Board.

Get your votes in all - I'm up against it!

Cheers

Kym Ryder

Best of luck Kym

An uphill battle, and probably more qualified than half the board already.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Does that include ex-wives, with the special bay in the back rows of level 5 of the Riverbank Stand

Simpsons gifs on this board should be a 5 like minimum

I am disappoint

Who on the board isn't qualified, do you think?

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Who on the board isn't qualified, do you think?

NOt not qualified, just more qualified

 

[Mego Red]

NOt not qualified, just more qualified

Fair enough. I think for the most part they seem a good mix of backgrounds and skills, but you can always improve.

 

[Deaneus!]

Yes, he's the head of the "past players committee" something like that. Was originally spearheaded by Fagan I believe. The reason we've got guys like Modra back involved with the club for example.

Then there's an argument he's done a good job. It's been very noticeable for a couple of years that we're getting the wolves back into the fold; Mods is a prime example. He's so marketable and such a hero to lots of people in SA, we'd be stupid not to.

I’ll expand and likely offend

Ellis brings no experience outside of student, unions and government. Her government links will be valuable but as a board member, she’s lacking. Having said that, I expect her to be Chair when Chappy steps down. She stays.

We have 2 finance banking guys in Hazel and Fennell. We don’t need 2. Hazel is more experienced but I don’t think his age profile is right for the sort of club we strive to be. He’s out. Fennell stays.

Don’t need 2 past players. Roo stays because he’s Roo. Jamo I’m a fan of but doesn’t need to be on the board. Jamo gone

Rest are okay and bring something

We are surprisingly lacking a lawyer on the board. They love this s**t. No one really replaced Winter. “Jars” seems like a good guy. That’s all I need.

Also lacking a media person. Foord sadly has to be replaced.

So:
Out Foord, Hazel and Jamo
In a lawyer and a media tart and someone else (alright, Jamo stays)

I think you keep anyone who's had reasonable seniority in government. They get things done. It's why all ex pollies go into the private sector or lobbying.

You need folks on other boards. They connect and influence at an executive level that helps you get opportunities.

Yeah, two players and two from finance seems OTT, especially with Chapman's banking background.

I'm happy with 2 players if they both have defined and separate roles ie Roo more club management and Jamo for the ex-players etc.

Both Hazel and Fennel have an Adelaide bank background. I expect there’s some sort of handover going on

For the media person, we should be in Bruce McAvaney’s ear when he retires from 7.

Well having learnt from the Lethlean paradox, I can assure all members that I will be finger lickin’ Good

Roo is the chairman of list management isn't he?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Rorys458 ?

Or topjars ... what happened to him?

 

[GreyCrow]

Roo is the chairman of list management isn't he?

Yes. I was scratching around for his exact role and just went with generic club football dept rather than ex footballers dept

 

[Kym Ryder]

Yes. I was scratching around for his exact role and just went with generic club football dept rather than ex footballers dept

They've got a reasonably good mix of business and footy people. Say what you like about Roo but he's run businesses for years and that's no small task.

I can't recall the last lawyer on the Board. Sometimes you need sticklers for the rules.

I've been doing the legal game for 20 odd years and have helped run a business, so I can bring a reasonable amount to the table.

It's a tough gig running against an incumbent, but who would not like a chance to have a crack.

I wonder how many on the Board sit in the Esatern stand and have a beer with the punters each game (unless I get the odd free one behind glass).

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Or topjars ... what happened to him?

He's here... changed names though

 

[Next Gen Rookie]

I thought he meant the BF Board, and was totally right

 

[jo172]

Gary Winter.

You should know the story of how that came to an end.

 

[Deaneus!]

Time to exercise my rights as a member

My second amendment rights!

I've known Kym for years through one of my best mates. Really great guy. Smart, friendly and always keen for a chat.

He would be a valuable asset to the club and hope he is elected.

 

[Geoffa32]

I voted for Kym.

Jamo might be doing a good job, but feel for a new guy.
