News Eddie's Presidency Challenge

[TradeDraft]

Sounds like Damien Barrett is going to tell us that he is going to be Challenged.

Don't know how by though

Quite possible, nay more likely that he is referring to Smorgan

Wasn't Eddie Up for re election past year and went up unopposed?

Re: Eddie's Presidency Challange

who in their right minds would challenge Eddie?! he is untouchable in his capacity

 

[Kirby]

I doubt it's against Eddie.

What sort of idiot would do that?

More likely Smorgan as suggested above by Opti.

 

[Zahki]

Eddie is untouchable, Smorgon is a much better bet.

Mr Draft, you jumped the gun .... again. Life is not all black and white. Sometimes it's even clothed in Bulldogs colours!

At the start of this year I think, as did all other board members. I think there is an election every 2 (or 3?) years.

Yep, and I have it on good authority that Paris Hilton has decided to enter a convent and devote the rest of her life to charity work.

I don't think there has been an election for 10 years and there won't be one this year.

In a general sense I have been (and remain) critical of the practise of filling casual vacancies with hand picked candidates for the bastardisation of democracy it is, the yes men/women board it promotes and the lack of transparancy in aptitude/criteria it delivers. Right now though, Eddie is president of the premier and there is no chance in hell of him losing an election - if there ever was or will be. Most people, myself included, want a flag(s) more than anything and Edddie how now delivered. On top of that, I can't think of many better placed people to take advantage of a flag or two to sell the club and make money.

You're right, there hasn't been an election by members, but there have been no challenges to the presidency (leading to an election).
The last vote by members was in 1998 I think, bringing Eddie in.

Keep the priests away from the altar boys? Well done to her.
