Eddie was always the biggest and most powerful personality in the room.
From all reports, since he's gone it's been a contest as to who is "the boss" down at the club, however it appears rudderless from a board level. Eddie would have been that rudder, the one steering things along, however who that person now is appears to be murky.
Korda and Murphy clearly both want to be president but IMO, the people who should decide this should not be the board but the members (social club, legends, club 5).
Without Eddie at the moment, the club appears to be relatively directionless and without someone to steer the ship, time for that to end. For a long time it has been Ed and without him the place isn't quite the same, which I why I agree with Murphy's sentiment that maximum terms on the board need to be introduced to ensure the club actually prepares for succession.
